Because, ever since the age of 30 (an age by which muscle mass and bone density have peaked) Floyd has been incapable of getting under 146 lbs (if you have evidence to the contrary I'd be happy to see it, but understand that reports from Floyd himself do not constitute evidence). Manny on the other hand came in weighing 138 lbs against Hatton (this was after his 30th birthday).
There is little natural weight difference between Maidana and Mayweather. The difference between Manny and Floyd is greater than that between Floyd and Marcos.
