Why do people act like Floyd gained so much weight after weighing in?

    I am of the opinion that he doesn't blow up much either, I think he's just on some gear. Which also explains why he looks bigger than he is.

      LOL. Floyd fought at 130, he's barely 5-8. 140 was probably where most fighters would have stopped, but he wanted the big money and that was at 147 and 154. I doubt he ever weighed more than 151 or 152 on fight night, he's just not a big 147 pound fighter. And I think he used that to his advantage in the long run, he knew that he barely had to cut weight to make the 147 lb limit, so he didn't have to train any different for cutting.

      Cutting weight is different for every person, some fighters have an uncanny ability to cut 20 lbs or more and still perform well. Most can only cut less than 10 lbs and still be near their peak.
      Then you had guys like Hatton would could cut 30-40 lbs. Ultimately it hurt his career, but he took it to almost 50 fights

        What about his old man? 62 or whatever and still has a 6 pack. For some it's called genetics. Look at Bradley, the guy could go right into and win a Jr bodybuilding competition, also genetics.

          Why did he need an IV? Do you have an answer to that genius?

          It's all above board for a 38 year old fighter to be getting IVs when he has been sharing pictures of being right on point with weight weeks out. Of course, it's all above board, nothing to see here, everyone move along.

            Why wouldn't snr be on juice?

            Bradley also goes on vegan diets and does/has done bodybuilding specific exercises. And have you seen his father?

                  Was he sick? He was sick for the cotto fight, and IF he were you know how fast you can rehydrate? Was he masking? It's always possible, but Manny zit back was obviously on something. Maybe they had a handshake agreement about something. People keep pointing the finger at Floyd as if he was certainly using, and IF that were the case, they try to pretend in their empty little skulls that he would be the ONLY guy out there using. Now why is that? They don't point out Mannys past drug issues, which certainly could affect one's ability in the ring. They don't point out that SUDDENLY golovkin has looked ordinary in his last 2 fights, doesn't have the same power...sure brook got a damaged eye, but so have a lot of fighters...cotto vs malignaggi springs to mind. Broker vs maidana, did you all see the swelling it his face afterwards? There's NO WAY he didn't have something broken in that fight. How many fighters have used in the sport? In every sport? But, but, but, they've never been caught...yeah? But SOME have just refused added testing.

                    Ohhhh, so the vegan diet gets him looking like that huh? You know VERY little about the human body, so there's no sense in talking to you. Go do some research first.

                      If you're doing bodybuilding all through-out the off season and then return to camp for a leaves and protein diet, yea, you'll trim up. Have you also noticed how much weight Bradley quickly puts on after fights?

                      P.S you dodged my question on snr. Why is it hard to believe a former drug dealer isn't on some gear? Juice is pretty common in america, let alone in the Mayweather GYM. So why not?
