    hmm good question, would pascal be up there considering he only recently moved up to light heavy?

    cotto fighting at 154 wouldnt really lose that much weight, remember boxers take in food on the day of the fight, so the ring weight is with food

    i would think cotto would lose 2 or 3 pounds to make 154

    dont really know any other

      Outside of HW's and a few fighters who just turned pro.......Pacquiao is the only one. The last person to my knowledge that didn't cut weight was Tony Ayala.

        Uh hello he obviously does cut weight as evidenced by the fact that he walks around at 150-155 and is soft before training and ripped after training and...drumroll please...weighs less.

        Exhibit A: 155 is less than 140 or 147.

        When they talk about Pac having to eat 7000 calories to make 147 duh training 4 hours a day will cause weight loss if not mitigated by a calorie surplus.

          If I'm not mistaken the K-bros walk around at like 230 no? And, they actually put on weight in every training camp.

          I think I read something like that.

            Theres a difference between training to your perfect weight and cutting water weight and then rehydrating

                Mayweather doesn't drain himself to make weight.

                The last time he made 130, he said he hated cutting that weight, and even then was unofficially 137.5 on fight night, not a huge increase in overnight weight by modern standards.

                I think he may some more weight now, he's grown into a decent sized WW, but I doubt it is that much.

                Judah didn't cut a whole lot of weight either, although he might be doing more so now that he dropped back down to 140. Both him and Floyd had low unofficial fight night weights when they fought each other.

                  Probably so....I thought I read somewhere that they put on weight instead of cutting weight during training camp. M

                  More than likely I'm wrong.
