Is it no coincidence the greatest fighters of our era fight at walking-around weight?

    There's only a few that do, that come to the ring a few lbs above their weight class and have never been heavier than a few lbs. Mayweather's one, Pacquaio is one, Froch is one, Rigondeaux, Marquez. I'm really not sure who else.
    Even Pacquaio only did it once he moved up from super Feather. Wasnt he weighing 140 or so on the night of the second Marquez fight?

        Yeah that's true Pacquaio used to cut a lot of weight.

        I was talking about at the moment though.

        He only cuts a few lbs at the moment.

          Froch only cuts 3-5.

          He was 173 in the ring against Groves.

          I think Rigondeaux is also the same.
