If Floyd comes in at 145-146 pound fight night, would you give him credit beating JMM

    Reason, JMM doesn't campaign at Jr WW or WW is because he doesn't have the skill to compensate for weight disadvantage. Pacman also doesn't have enough skill to compensate for disadvantage in weight, hence why he wants catch weight and penalty on coming overweight

    Read fight night weight. JMM handled 145 pounds Pacman. That is a WW version of Pacman he fought.

    Oscar/PBF didn't have one. Oscar didn't want to have it, since it would have shown the true weight difference between them two. Both in the press conference they told about their fight night weight

      you dont understand fight night weights do you? they do not deliberately go home and rush to drink and eat to gain an advantage over their opponent it just shows how hard it was for them to make weight and it's water weight. floyd trains every day so he doesnt need to put on any water weight whereas most other fighters have a life.

        24 year old mayweather weighed in 139 lbs fight night when he fought at 130 and a 34 year old marquez only weighed 141 lbs and doesnt even train as hard all year round. that shows the advantage in size between the two, mayweather was 139 lbs for a superfeatherweight fight in 2001 and marquez was 141 lbs for a superfeatherweight fight in 2008.

          No heavier than 146 and i might give him credit if Marquez comes in at like 142.

              You don't add 15 pounds overnight just by eating and drinking. Most of the weight they are losing before the weight in is water. They drain themselves just to make. They drink a lot of water and eat a lot, to gain their natural weight they lost due to the draining. Pacman was 145 pounds when he fought JMM. And if Floyd comes under 146 pounds, no excuses

              Mayweather moved up weight for the Oscar fight, he was calling out Oscar when he was at 135. Its not really about JMM's weight. Its about how JMM handled 145 pound WW Pacman without any problems.

              IF Floyd is under 146, he gets full credit

                If he totally destroys him maybe, but in reality JMM is 36 and fight in his highest weight division ever. Everything is against him.

                      JMM beat 145 pounds Pacman according to most boxing experts. Who is fast and strong as Floyd Mayweather. Unlike Pacman, however Floyd is coming a long very long retirement. Also weight is weight

                      No, George Foreman came back from a "very long retirement". Floyd has been off less than two years and is still in his prime.

                      What a *****
