        you NATURALY put on weight when you get older WW is is natural weight class at the moment.

          i think floyds definitely grown into 147 now... hes not 22 anymore... i believe hes natural at that weight

          8 years ago i walked around 20 pounds lighter than i do now... that doesnt mean thats my natural weight now though... and i dont have fat

            RageX, where have you been my friend? Ive been trying to tell these guys this forever. It makes me even more upset to here media guys and announcers say this. They always make articles like this. Manny Steward says it all the time and its so unfair. You can easily tell that there comparing Floyd to SRL & Hearns head to head at WW. How is that fair when Floyd started at 130 and moved up unaturally while those guys started out as huge WW's and finished at LHW?

            I always say that if you want to compare them then do it in a P4P sense. If you compare them at 147 to Floyd at 130 then its very well that Floyd may be the better fighter or is atleast as good. On top of that Floyd moved up way way better then both of those guys ever did. He was much better at higher weights then them. I said how can you judge them at WW when Floyd doesnt even come in at the WW limit? He's always in the ring at 146 while those guys were huge WW's in there 1st class.

            I cant believe people are so blind not to see this and its why he will never get the credit he fully deserves. Ive always said that Floyd weight wise shouldve stated at LW until around this time and just now be moving up to 140 to finish his career. If he did that then everyone would be looking at him differently. He would be much more Offensive at the lower weights and would be killing everyone. He would be called one of the most exciting guys in boxing and easily a ATG. I also hate it when idiots like Merchant and others say that he barely beat an old Oscar which was a crappy performance. What? I personally think that is one of the best accomplishments in recent memory. Dude is like a natuarl LW and just beat a very good fighter in Oscar at 154 when he was outweighed by a ton, came into the ring at just 148, had all the disadvantages, and beat a guy who had just decaptitaed Mayorga who everyone sweats. Its like Floyd gets penalized for being how good he is. Most people his size arent good enough to keep moving up but because he is so good that he can fight at the higher weights, they judge him just like he's a natural there which is ******

              What are you talking about? All those guys walk around in between fights way bigger then Floyd and he doesnt even really put on any weight between the weigh-in and the fights. He wasnt even big at LW or 140 and now he's a real WW? If you look at him and the other guys like Cotto, Williams, Margarito, Clottey, and Cintron then you will say there is no comparison. They look like there 2 weight classes bigger then him at the least. How can you say that he's a real WW when in most of his fights he has came into the ring at 146 while all those guys are 160 or over

                Floyd isnt better then them. He just gets mils to fight easier opponents so why, actually fight a risk when you are already getting paid? he hasnt even fought the best at 147 and the he made the best 140 guy move up to fight him so he would have the advantage EVEN THOUGH you say his natural weight is below it

                  Floyd is very diciplined with his weigh between fights. he chooses to fight light cuz he fights LIGHT.

                    I've read a few of your posts, you dont seem to like Floyd Mayweather or it sound a bit biased against him.

                      None compare to the great fantasy match-up that was JAMES TONEY VS RICARDO MAYORGA. I've never seen a more one-sided poll in these forums.
