    Looking at his boxrec record, he was 130lbs when he made his debut when 19 years old. Mayweather was 130lbs at the same age.

    As we all know, Mayweather fights at 147lbs now.

    Of course he will. He's already having trouble making 130. Robert said they might do 135 for his next fight. I think hell top out at 147 maybe 154

      Has a decent reach, but he doesn't look like he could fill out that much to me.

      Look at Danny. He's got the body type that can fill out, and even then, his max is probably 147.

      I just couldn't picture a blown up Mikey Garcia doing anything to guys like Garcia, Matthysse, Thurman, Bradley, Pac, Ruslan, Rios. None of them.

        The guy was dropped by Roman Martinez.

        He would get monstered at 140.

            Why do you guys think 140 is reaching. He was puking and passing out when he fought juanma he came in at 128, only 2 pounds from 130. Hell stay at 135 for a while he's still young he can't kill himself forever

                well, his conditioning coach, Ariza, says he can go up to 147 because he has the frame and work ethic to do so he compared him to Manny in that regard in one of elie's videos.

                  Per Dan Rafael, Top Rank is eyeing an eventual Pacquiao vs. Garcia fight at 147 with hopes of "passing the torch" to Garcia as a PPV attraction. That is funny on a few levels, but stranger things have happened.
