    How ****** do you need to be to not understand this?
    His first few years at welter he could get back to 140 but his last 4 to 5 would have been tough.
    I don't know why fans think it's so easy to loose weight and be strong I guess it's because they have no clue what it takes to be a pro boxer.
    If GGG couldn't make 160 comfortably he'd have to move up.

    Why is this so hard to understand? What athlete weighs what he weighed when 22 years old when he's 34 years old?

    Mayweather moved up because he couldn't make weight and then says he could have made 140 for a few years.

    So he moved up to 147 and 154 when he didn't need to and could make the lower weight.

      Not from 140, from 130, and 135. But he also showed he couldn't make much below 147 since coming back, at 32.

        I think he could have, he could have made the JMM catchweight but chose not to. Mayweather wanted to go in to fights in the best condition possible and never dehydrated much weight to achieve it. Even at the lower weights he was only rehydrating 3 or 4 lbs on fight night. Compare that to guys like Pacquiao at 130 coming in 14 lbs heavier than they weighed in.

                Floyd fights smaller guys like jmm and PAC. Drains guys who are bigger.
                Avoids toughest tests if he can at all help it like Thurman and brook in uk

So, ts, can you do the math and tell us how many weight classes that is for mayweather now? Since we're counting amateur weights too and all.

                  Edit: These bumps are hilarious.
                  this is bottom of the barrel sad
