I would say between 150-154 on fight night. Anyone that says otherwise especially a ridiculous number like 160 is a moron with an agenda. When has Mayweather ever been known as one of those guys that rehydrates up 2 weight classes overnight like a fat ass?
He consistently comes in about 5 or so pounds heavier on fight and he stated during the Guerrero build-up(and numerous times in the past) that he likes to train at the weight he fights at because it keeps him speedier on fight night. He's a solid puncher, but not knocking guys out so what benefit does he have to sacrifice speed for a weight advantage that won't benefit him all that much? He's lauded for training year round, and being one of the dudes to watch his out of the ring habits so why is this so unbelievable again?
Skill does win fights but why let your opponent know he has a big weight advantage when you don't have to? And besides, Floyd did weigh in for Ortiz and was 150 fight night so if your position is contrary to that then there is no real hope for you. Whether I enjoy Floyds fights or not has nothing to do with hard evidence, so instead of talking crap for a change, why don't you stick to the evidence, not the Illuminati conspiracy theories?
The evidence, Floyd doesn't do fight night weigh ins on a regular basis. So to say hes 150 all the time, is pure bs. The only time fight night weights have become a problem for Floyd, is when the possible opponent is young, has talent, and the speed and power to knock Floyd out. But when its Baldomir, or Ortiz, or Guerrero, "size doesn't win fights, skills do". When Floyd was obviously much larger than Marquez, "size doesn't win fights, skills do".
People are saying that Canelo out weighs Floyd by 25 pounds. That's assuming that Canelo weighs 172 on fight and Floyd weighs 147. I don't ever remember seeing Floyd's weight on fight night. I would assume that it would in between 155-160 but I don't really know.
Floyd Fanboys gonna say he weighted whatever he needs to cuz he is his own man.
He also does it because he wants to be in control, he's a control freak.
Oscar used to do the same thing with his unofficial weigh in's and he's followed in his footsteps in that regard.
That said, he went on the unofficial scale against Ortiz, like previously mentioned.
Probably because of the morons and ******s who actually believe he comes to the ring at 160+ lbs.
They say it because they want to believe he beat Marquez with size not skills and that he's much bigger than pac when they are the same size, its that simple

The evidence.
Just no, skills do win fights but that doesn't mean he has to fight people bigger than him every fight. Skills and the opponents size are not mutually exclusive to each other, he can be more skilled and bigger or more skilled and smaller, it doesn't matter. The evidence is the numbers we have available, not the ones you pull out of your hole. We can look at his fight night weigh ins up to Sept. 2011 and the evidence shows he was 150 that night. Your argument is as follows.... "Because we don't have the fight night weigh in, I am going to say he was 160+". Guess what, the burden of proof is on you, you are the one claiming he is something that he has never shown to be before so it is you that has to bring new evidence to light that backs up your claim and so far you have provided nothing but anecdotes and assertions. If you can't show it, you don't know it.
No he is always kind of bulky. Against Ortiz he looked the same size as Ortiz, but when they zoom in, Ortiz looked a little stockier. You dont have to lie just because you see this as a chance to attack Floyd. Against Ortiz he came in at 150. Against Oscar and Cotto, the official weight was 150 and 152. Why didnt he just weigh in at 154 if he can gain an LB more than 152? Cuz he was the same size as he was at ww, or LESS. See, because he's a natural ww, he will accidentally lose weight, and come in the ring at around 149-150. I Know My Boxing.
STOP IT. Floyd was obviously/visually bigger in the ODLHYA/Cotto fights. There's no way you watched those fights, and thought to yourself that Floyd looked the same as WW.
Man, when did this site become so garbage? The canelo fight should happen no doubt, but seriously acting like Floyd would be greatly outweighed is pathetic.
