    there's a lot of "hard work, dedication!" being chanted at people's computers, that is for sure.

    i don't blame them. we all get a little floyd joy in our pants when money mayweather is fighting.

      It's the official WBC 30 day weigh in.... unless you think for some reason they'd need to lie about it.

        take this weight with a grain of salt, the same way you would with any other unofficial weights.
        I am an expert at judging weight by looking at the back of a man's upper torso and he is surely 148.2~

        Also I believe that was a WBC weigh-in so not exactly unofficial~ though not exactly from the most trustworthy organization but I don't see why they would lie about that unless Floyd wanted them to~

          All you see is his back and his arms, don't be ******. You can't tell. I can't tell. He could be soft, and he's not flexing.

          Stop acting like you've seen his back at that angle from the day of the weigh-in.

              i'm not acting.

              he's 30 days out. in 30 days he will be more fit. that is common sense.

                I didnt know it was the 'official' 30 day weigh in as it wasnt stated and we are 24, not 30 days out, so forgive me that....and no I'm sure the delightful Senor Sulaiman and his wonderfully transparent organisation have no need to lie about anything.

                      It ain't a coincidence that this coincides with how much he weighs in the ring, he was 148 against Baldomir, 146 against Judah, 150 against Ortiz. He was vocal in saying he was 148 against Oscar, I believe him, Steward made comments saying Mayweather was about 152 against Marquez, don't know where he got those numbers, but again...when you look at the whole picture, it all coincides.
