              He didn't make the 144 catchweight against Juan Manuel Marquez.

                  He had a problem staying at 130lbs toward the end of his reign at 130lbs. He's a small welterweight. He came back from a long lay off in the Marquez fight that's why I think he had a problem with the 144lb. weight... Kinda like when he took a layoff when he was at 130lbs and did a 134lb fight with Augustus to later go back to 130lbs. I think he could make 140lbs if he'd drain like most fighters do and his dad has said this numerous times. I don't think he'll ever be a big welterweight since he prefers to fight comfortably instead of having to drain to make weight especially since he's 35. Draining to make weight is hard on the body and will cut your boxing career a lot shorter than if you stay in shape when not fighting and fight at a comfortable weight.

                    Floyd lives at 150. he's only fought at 154 twice. Against oscar and cotto. I think 160 would nullify his power.
