The one thing real boxing fans know is that Floyd didn't have to cheat JMM to beat him lol... Only *******s believe this because it is their ammo for Pac making Cotto weigh in at 145 for Cotto's title lol... Floyd paid JMM the extra money because Floyd couldn't make 144 and feel comfortable. Floyd coming in at 146 for JMM is ridiculed yet it's ok that cotto weighed in at 145 because he agreed even thought cotto wanted the big pay day lol... Hypocrites lol...Comment

Why would I even take you seriously? The question is very simple, yet, you keep going around it. Did mayweather make the contracted weight for the marquez fight at 144?
Manny made contracted weight with Cotto. FACT
Mayweather couldn't make contracted weight with JMM. FACTComment

You are throwing some bull**** out there that even you don't believe.
But when Mayweather weighed 146 pounds at Friday’s weigh-in, he was forced to pay a six-figure penalty to Marquez for coming in at more than 144 pounds, Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer said.
Schaefer said the contract the fighters signed in May was for the bout to be at a limit of 147 pounds. But in that contract, each man agreed to a substantial penalty clause for every pound, or fraction thereof, more than 144.
Mayweather has fought at welterweight since 2005, but Marquez never has and only has fought three times at more than 130. He weighed
134 in a Dec. 9, 1996, bout against Rodrigo Valenzuela. He was 135 when he stopped Joel Casamayor on Sept. 13, 2008, and was 134 when he stopped Juan Diaz on Feb. 28.
On Friday, Marquez weighed 142.
There never was any question whether Marquez could make the weight. It has been more than four years since Mayweather weighed less than 146.
“There were no surprises,” Schaefer said. “The contract the fighters signed for the fight so many months ago called it a welterweight fight. But there was a stipulation that there would be a penalty for weighing over 144.
“Floyd’s team informed us today that he would not be able to make 144, and because of that, there was a substantial penalty. If he would have been 147, it would have been even bigger.”
