I assume you are trying to base it on the fight night weights correct?

[SOPH~ REP.]

B class figher ? That has a chance to win

FFS Mayweather was NOT 147 pounds last night. You couldn't see that?

He was 148.5 according to the Show Time weigh in before the fight.

It's not about coming in bigger in weight, it's about how you use the weight. Styles make fights. If you can fight on the inside and capable of cutting off the ring to keep the fight on the inside, then the weight advantage will be effective and will be useful to push your opponent around. Again apples and oranges. Canelo came in at 165 lbs and didn't used his weight advantage because he's not in effective inside pressure fighter, he prefer to keep the fight in the center of the ring.

Yeah I know that, but I don't believe it. He looked no smaller than 154 in that ring.

That's too bad, because he has like a decade long history of coming into the ring between 147 and 150 lbs. There's plenty of Tales of the Tape to prove it. Cameras fool the eyes all the time, making people look bigger than what they really are.

It's possible the weight scale is actually more accurate than your eyes bro.
