Comments Thread For: Photo: Floyd Mayweather Jr. Already Close To 147 Limit

Yep. Floyd vs. the 140 lb champs would be PPV worthy.

I'd rather see Floyd vs. Matthysse/Garcia/Khan/Peterson/Bradley (@140) than anyone at 147, barring JMM/Pac.

I think they would rather move up in weight as they won't have to drain themselves, these 140s should be fighting at WW to be honest.

Ehhhh, I guess so. Floyd seems to prefer 147 over 140, so you may be right.

Floyd has one of the best work ethics in the business.

That's a picture of WBC's 30 day weigh in. I asked the WBC's twitter account about Mayweather's 30 day weight and then they posted the picture in responce.

Ahh!

30 days out, not 24.

Freaking 148.2, 30 days before the fight. That's crazy.

Not surprised, I'll never understand where people got the idea that he may have weighed 160 against Marquez.

Because Floyd does look bigger, but looking bigger and really being bigger are two different things.

Floyd is taller, longer and better proportioned, JMM is more stocky.

Plus if someone wants to believe something they will find a way~

Floyd is around the same size as a lot of these Jr WWs, hilarious how he was made to look like the bully after stopping Hatton. I said recently that this helps Mayweather's accuracy, as he doesn't need to adjust to a new weight when inside the ring, as he comes in weighing 2-3 pounds more than he does at the weigh in, so he fully knows what he's capable of. Other fighters have to readjust their timing, especially coming off of sparring, many of them are 10-17 pounds heavier in the ring.

Also I have to add Floyd has sick discipline in regards to staying in peak shape, how many dudes making money like that still work that hard every day.

Plus Floyd just ain't that big~
