Elite endurance athletes like marathon runners average about 6% no endurance athlete has high body fat , Floyd would be close to 6% when at 135 and probably about 10/ 12% at 147 and 154, any of your elites are pretty much in the same boat with body fat.

He was 150-155 tops. Fully clothed, untrained and old he still only weighs 160.
prime Floyd in fight condition he fought at 147 and walked around pretty close to that. He’s a small man, look at his frame at 130, he’s tiny.Last edited by tonysoprano; 08-27-2024, 05:30 AM.bballchump11 likes this.

Where are you pulling that 30lbs number from ? FFS natural 140lbs'er Maidana was not even allowed to wear his usual LEGAL gloves Or No Fight and now all the haters are acting to just give up 15lbs on weight ? You think someone that always tries to get the upperhand in every micro detail of the negotiations just is going to give away 15lbs+ per fight ? You make no sense again.sbbigmike likes this.

As you enter your 40s and especially 50s, muscle mass loss increases significantly. It’s possible to retain a good level of your muscle with the right diet and exercise but he’s obviously not training like he was when fighting professionally, so It’s hard to compare his weight now to where he was.

We seen a 160 pound Floyd his last few exhibitions yet he looks two divisions smaller if we were able to place him next to money may...
Do people actually believe he walked around at 47 still
No fighter walks around at their fighting weight. Only a casual would even suggest it. Most disciplined boxers walk around 15-20 heavier. The UNDISCIPLINED ones weigh over 30 pounds more.
Mayweathers TRUE fighting weight was 135. As he matured and got internal body fat plus a little more muscle. He became a 147 pounder.
Saw his body recently and he looked like a FAT SLOB but today’s American's think he looks good cause most people are fat.Last edited by MONGOOSE66; 08-27-2024, 02:15 PM.

Look at the stills from Floyd canelo and tell me with a straight face canelo twenty pounds heavier or even bigger than floydAttached Files

After a Floyd training routine with how hard Floyd trains he could lose 5-10 pounds in a day, and alot of fighters cut down to make 30 day weigh ins as well, so I think he still play scale games
