Mayweather fans:What exactly is a welterweight?

[Smash]

It does bug me a little bit. Floyd was unable to meet hatton at 140 last time so he is a welter weight. As far as i can remember floyd came in at 152 for de la hoya. Google mayweather 152 to check for yourself

[Xcusemymood]

WW is a torture chamber to the Mr boat buyer ****suckers. Not sure why either, cuz he'd be favored to beat SSM and Cotto. But it's inhuman to even suggest Mr boat buyer take those fights, despite the fact that the guy is a former world champ at 147.

Hattons a former champ at 147 but he gets a pass because "his frame is too small"

[fdotorres]

Mayweathyer would have 7 pounds advantage over JMM yet people *****.
Cotto has like 11 pounds advantage over PBF
Margarito has 12 pounds advantage over PBF
Clottey has like 22 pounds advantage over PBF
Williams would have 16 pounds advantage

if he has a huge weight disadvantage in a weight, it's because he doesn't belong there.

he should go down and stay at JWW, of course until someone gets shot and old and he calls him out at 147 or 154.

btw, marquez isn't a JWW, so he really would be at a 12lb disadvantage. isn't floyd the greatest of all time (according to him)? then fight marquez, then fight the top welters and stop making up excuses

[PoetryInMotion]

floyd has to fight bigger guys or he's a fraud

Is this a serious statement or a sarcastic question. If you really mean it then I have a new found respect for you. And this is a problem for Floyd if his biggest fans are even getting turned off.

You know what Hatton comes in at for his fights and what he is expected to come in at for Pac by fight-time?

Did you know that Pac was 152 pounds with 6% bodyfat during his training for Oscar according to Freddie Roach?

[Deja_Vous]

Height wise and measurements of other features. I am really curious.

I think you all want him to fight Marquez at welterweight and you all say it would be a fair fight. Is Juan Manuel Marquez a welterweight?

Mayweather can fight Pacquiao and Hatton at welterweight, those would be fair right?

What about Paul Williams,Antonio Margarito, Joshua Clottey were those guys welterweights? They fought at 147 pounds. Why couldnt Mayweather fight those guys since they were welterweight? Would those fights have be unfair?

What about Miguel Cotto? Shane Mosley?

This thing about not dropping to 140 pisses me off. If he wants to fight super featherweights and light welterweights at 147 he should be able to fight the real welterweights at 147.

Look scab...JMM's broke ass called-out Floyd..not the other way around.

Juan's ****sucking ass is in NO position to make demands.


It's not like Floyd called him out.

I would like to see which fighters could weigh-in at the actual division weight. So, if you are a Welter-Weight, by fight-time, can you come in at 147?


But in the boxing world, a Welter-weight is anybody that steps on the scales at 147 pounds even if he has to drain his body of fluids and can put on +10-20 pounds by fight-time with the use of an I.V.

Those are the rules,

the same rules that allow fighters to steal rounds by shoe shining, or by playing, "tag, you're it".

Margarito called out Floyd,

and Floyd tucked his tail between his legs.



"bu, but, if a fighter wants to fight Floyd, they have to call him out".


What happened?

[oc9979]

This is a proven FACT

proven fact by who??
dont tell me that fat guy in mayweather corner told you that
he has been saying that floyd will come back and the he said that floyd wont come back.
