why mayweather did not make weight...real talk

[Mr. Philadel]

he didnt make weight because he's so ****in afraid to lose.....he won't even put himself in a position where a L is a possibility.....takin' off the extra weight would've gave JMM a chance......but Floyd doesn't like competition......he said it himself.....he's an entertainer!!......Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant are entertainers as well.....in fact more entertaining than Floyd.....but dudes like MJ and Kobe are competitors FIRST!!.....competitors love a challenge......Floyd is using boxing as his money scam!!......his last 4 fights has been against.....Baldi, DLH, Hatton and JMM...........while Cotto, Margarito, and Mosley were all available and quite willing!!.....but those guys would have a chance unlike his last 4 opponents who virtually went into those fights with 0 chance!!

Why do people keep making these threads? I don't know why it keeps having to be pointed out, but the fight was contracted at 147. There was a penalty for coming in over 144, but the paper that Marquez and Mayweather signed was for a fight at Welterweight.

it was originally a catchweight fight at 144 that had to be amended at the
11th hr. because floyd knew before he stepped on the scale that he was coming in 2 lbs. over...doesn't sound like a lot, but when your opponent is moving up two divisions, that grossly unfair...what made matters worse was floyd refusing to reveal his unofficial weight and got perturbed when asked about it...had this been a b or c fighter, they would have been hogtied, but since floyd is in the "suits" good graces, he gets excused...
