He fights and walks around close to his natural weight because of his gymrat lifestyle. Most people do not take this same approach when it comes to training.

    Pacquiao and Marquez may balloon to weights higher than Mayweather when they are not training for a fight because they actually indulge in junk foods and lounge around. Does that mean they are naturally bigger than Mayweather if they have a higher fat % during this time period??

    Bottom line is whatever weight you can slim yourself down to and still fight comfortably the following night is your natural weight. Fight night weighins dont mean **** about size as it's mostly water weight. Different fighters approach rehydration 4 fight night differently just as they approach training differently.

    Fighters like floyd do not rehydrate as much because he is already comfortable where he is at.

    Fighters like Pacquiao may fight at 135 but rehydrate all the way to 147. Much higher than necessary in order to give him some extra fuel to power his superior workrate.
    Good Post.

      I'll say, Mayweather is a lil bigger but not by much.
      roughly around the same weight doesn't mean the same size.

      in their early 20's pac was at 122 , jmm was at 126 and floyd was at 130.

        Pacquiao was 98 lbs at 16, he put metal in his trunks to make weight. at this stage they are similar in size, but Mayweather was almost Oscars size at 150+, and he came in at 147.

        Pacquiao will look smaller than Mayweather because his legs carry a lot of weight. He weighed more than Oscar but looked much smaller.

          Manny P at 135 come fight night was 147
          Manny P at 147 at fight night was 148

          Mayweather at 130 come fight night was 131
          Mayweather at 135 come fight night was 137
          Mayweather at 140 come fight was 143
          Mayweather at 147 come fight night is 149

          Mayweather and Pacman both at the age of 16 fought at 106. Don’t let Tua use fights at lower weights to blind your thinking. If Mayweather started at 16 he would be fighting at the same weight as Pacman.

          They are the same weight at WW and PACMAN AT 140 weights the same as Mayweather at 147/ Pacman walks around heavier
          Yeah but your forgetting the body frame which mayweather is bigger that manny

            bigger the frame = the more weight you can carry healthily = naturally bigger = Mayweather

              Only Flawless believe on his rules and policies about weights. People here don't give a crap about him and his idiotic ideas.

                      This was taken from Pacquiao's tale of the tape against JMM in their second fight and from Mayweather's tale of the tape against DLH.
