Mayweather-Ortiz 30 day weigh-in

[Horvo]

this is the difference between pac and floyd..floyd's opponent in this case ortiz can eat and train..he will be strong on fight night..pacs opponents had all been on a diet before the fight..de la hoya,margarito,cotto etc...his opponents have to drained them self because mr congressman needs the advantage..now he's doing the opposite which is even worse..JMM has to put on weight because it will suit duckqiao..he will by flobby and slow you'll see..after round 4 pac is gonna take over and his plan will be fulfilled.

Good point. PBF would never make JMM move up to 144 to fight him.

Floyd doesnt show his fight night weight because he feels its a advantage to play mind games. were so caught up that we debate about it.

Floyd was 160 or close enough to it againest Marquez, a little lighter againest Mosley. Im surprised hes at 149 now. I expected 153, but hes always in shape , so actually boxing im not surprised his body lost weight quick its very possible. i expect him tobe 156 on fight night. 2 pounds more maybe.

Hes grown into a WW. you can tell the difference in his early part of WW and his last two fights there.

He came to the ring at 150 Vs Oscar if I remember correctly.

He weighed in at 150 at the weigh in yes.

There was no fight night weight for The World Awaits. I have the fight right here. DLH had no fight night weight, neither did Mayweather. That was actually the first fight in which Mayweather did not weigh himself in for HBO. I don't know if that was DLH's first time too, gotta check the Mayorga fight. I know Floyd was 149 on fight night against Baldomir, so it's not out of the question that he could have weighed 150 for DLH on fight night. He's done it before, not gain a pound from the weigh in for fight night.

I have my own theory as to why floyd don't do the fight night weigh-in anymore.

He did it until he fought Oscar, who didn't want to do the fight night weigh-in. (please correct me on this one if it's not true. This is how i remember it)

Floyd, wanting to be a superstar like Oscar, thereafter just mimicked that behavior. It's like hes obsessed with Oscar in a way, never wanting to feel inferior to him. (i don't work for oscar, he works for me etc...)

well the difference would be food intake at most. There would be no reason for floyd to dehydrate himself to come in at 4lbs under the limit.

I think It's safe to say 150-152 was his fight night weight against oscar.

Oh yes, you're right.

I got mixed up for a second there.

yep, 150, and thats the last time he weighed in on fight night.

Besides theres not really any set rules for the unofficial fight night weight. I'd think It's quite common for fighters not to weigh in naked, so people should probably take the weight with a grain of salt.

That's for the weigh in.

I repeat, there was no fight night weight for The World Awaits.
Listen to the intro, Jim Lampley says HBO unofficial weigh in is not available for this fight. I just heard it right now.


Last fight Floyd weighed in on fight night was the Baldomir fight.

[mushahadeen]

ortiz pigged out after berto.

floyd's been in the gym for a while. i believe them spadafora rumors. they were considering it.

[Barry Halls]

That's for the weigh in.

Yeah, my mind played tricks on me despite looking at the picture.

I do feel It's safe to think he was very close to 150 on fight night however, using the logic of my above post.

“@danrafaelespn: The wretched WBC held 30-day weigh-in for @FloydMayweather & @ViouciousOriz today. Mayweather 149 pounds, Ortiz 157.4. Max allowed was 162.”

Now, I know what the first excuse will be from the haters after Mayweather beats Ortiz. They will claim that Ortiz had to drain himself to make weight. After all, he weighed 10 pounds over the limit at the 30-day weigh-in. He will have to kill himself to lose that 10 pounds by Sept. 17.
