      Whats things coming to can shed weight with money now, guess it ain't like the old days when they boxed & fought the weight now there paying for it like a pound of mince.

      Monzon shed a few lbs had to run a miles & spar 3 rounds to make weight for Griffith rematch, just 1 example.

      This is a complete joke Mayweather can buy a heads up.

          #1 - Mayweather Promotions is the lead promoter for this fight.

          I challenge anyone to find in a documanted statement from MP that this fight was at 144lbs. From day-one they always stated that this was a WW fight.

          #2 - JMM & his team accepted all the terms of the old contract and the new, so he, more than anyone, knew what was going on. It was just a matter of how much Floyd was going to weigh below the WW limit of 147lbs.

              rumor?

              didn't they announce 144 at the announcement of the fight?

              dumbass.

                they're not gonna cancel the fight.

                too much time and money invested already.

                floyd will work something out with jmm. pay him more money.

                besides both sides probably knew ahead of time he wasn't gonna make weight and worked it out already.

                  Somebody needs to ***** slap floyd, i dont think he had any intention of losing the weight and even told us by insisting this is a WW fight when asked, floyd likes to hold ALL the cards and have the dealer in his pocked too just in case

                    well if i was marquez id of called the fight off. it goes to show the class of marquez that he will fight any1 even when they are cheating. there is absolutly no point in having a set weight limit if 1 fighter is just gonna say, ahh fcuk it, im just gonna giv him some money so everything is crisp. thats some bull**** right there. and it just goes to show the sort of man floyd mayweather is, a weasel. as if its not enough already for him to be pickin on a blown up lightweight, he needs to pinch a little bit more weight for himself. the man is a fcukin prick. likes to talk **** sayin hes the best, well maybe he should back that **** up by making it a level playing field that sneaky cheating ignorant mofo.

                      call of the fight and throw away all the time spent on promoting this fight and training camp?

                      not to mention the millions of dollars he can make?

                      not realistic.

                      hopefully he gets compensated some more money from floyd for floyd not making the weight.
