    Yes.

    Floyd can not make 144. He is definitely a bigger man now than he was before his layoff. Why don't you think he wouldn't do an unofficial weigh in? He was much bulkier than in the past. He looks more like a 154 lber to be honest.

    Reminds me of the Wizard era Michael Jordan with mature bulk.

      I think they are if agreed upon by both parties and there's no sanctioning bodies (belts) involved.

        Why not? I think they should be made mandatory.

        When you think about it, it's the only way to prevent mismatches like last weekend.

        If one fighter is naturally smaller and is bulking up to make weight but one fighter is draining himself to get down to weight then you can guarantee that both men will be around the same weight when they fight.

            To make it a more even fight. Makes sense, doesn't it?

              i suppose that makes sense, never really thought about it, always assumed it was made totally illegal years ago.

              mayweather would never agree to it though.

                Because he doesn't need to, if Floyd pulled this stunt he'd be ridiculed

                When Floyd beats Pacquiao, i don't want to hear bull**** excuses

                  How even??? I dont get it...If i suggest that before for Mayweather it would be laughed at, So why now for manny??? For years i have been one of the people that have been talking about boxing doing the same day weight in because i think it would be right for boxing but people think its all because of Mayweather, So now that he comes in big all of a sudden people want to suggest sameday weight for a Mayweather-pacman fight??? These just gets better..

                    screw all this weight mess...if its a welterweight bout, just let floyd come in at 147, and pac come in at whatever weight is most efficient for him and they fight...floyd beating up on another little man is what his fans want anyway
