Comments Thread For: Photos: Mayweather, Maidana 30-Day Fight Weights

[_original_]

25kg dumbells and I'm lighter than Maidana

Makes sense, Marcos Madiana should really consider you subbing in for him to fight Floyd since you're in better condition and lighter.

You know your stuff, so surely you read my line of thought.

Had he only weighed about 150, then I'd assume he'd have jumped on the scales. Since he did not it's free to speculate that he was much heavier and that speculation then carries some weight. No pun intended.

I never speculated on the Hatton fight. Only the post retirement JMM fight.

Why would you assume he would jump on the scales when he didn't for the fight before?

I know you're only speculating Marquez but you're saying he needs a reason not to weigh himself. So what were the reasons all the other times?

Obviously it's free to speculate just as it is anytime a fighter doesn't weigh themself but it's pretty obvious from the multiple weights we have of his over the past 8 years that 150 is his weight unless even time he hasn't weighed himself he's magically finding 10+ lbs from somewhere which obviously is a ridiculous notion.

Damn, you guys really on Mayweathers **** that hard, that you can't admit a guy 12 lbs naturally bigger then him is stronger?

I mean the last thing in the world that wins Mayweathers fights is his strength. His skill just isn't enough. He has to be smaller (underdog), stronger (badass), harder puncher, etc. Enough is enough.

And to the guy above, no. Cotto would fight on the back foot like he has whenever he has been pressured in his career.

No, What we are trying to point out to your ****** ass is allot of what Floyd does is deception.

He knows fighter are going to underestimate his strength because of his style, in fact he banks on it. How many fighter have we seen try press Floyd only to be gassed by round 6 or 7. After the mid round Floyd like a fisherman will allow his opponents to tire them selves out trying press, wrestle in a attempt to ware him down. The real way to beat floyd is to use the jab to build up points, and match him down the stretch when he decides to open up. Do that and you have a good chance of beating him. Try pressing him or trying to KO him early and your done by round 5 .

If Floyd does not hug, KOs Maidana, does not run and fights and KOs Martinez, I will give him credit for now he is a boring coward in my book. He chose Maidana because he is flat-footed.

Some people just need to be re-schooled over and over with the facts.

.

And you need to be schooled over the fact that Floyd uses his elbows, hugs and cheapshots. Anyone can win like that. You firgat to post the tale of the tape of Floyd vs Marquez. Idiot.

Floyd must have some light bones or something, he looks like at least 160 pounds yet he only weighs 150.

It's called illegal drugs, sorry "borderline-legal" supplements.

People need to let that Marquez thing go; he lost weight the next day vs Canelo but he magically gained 16 plus lbs vs Marquez when his gameplan didn't involve him bullying Marquez does that make sense.

[Mr. Philadel]

so Floyd Sr. wasn't lying when he said his son could make 140....but if you ever seen Floyd in person you can see he's a little dude....looks like I can take his lunch money

[lutenco]

Spend money for this PPV is GAY , go out and look for a 20y wh*re with BIG BOMBS and a BO*TY THAT CAN TALK!!!

[Holywarrior]

Come on man... He's been doing fight night weigh-ins for quite some time. And most of the time he's outweighed by his opponents by 10+ lbs or more. You can see the pattern here, so it's not hard to guess. It's obvious as the sun.

Funny how this will be ignored.
