MAYWEATHER TOO BULKY:SPEED WILL BE EFFECTED PIC

[acquitted]

his arms might get tired on the later rounds

Thanks for the updated pic, but when has Floyd ever had his hands up--or moving rapidly--in the later rounds? Isn't he the one who cruises to victories on 'safe' mode, while DLH gets the loss for doing the same?

My point is this: PBF has never been thrilling in the latter parts of fights, and now that he is fighting bigger, it only puts him at risk. DLH has MULTIPLE late round KO's, including his former nemesis, Vargas.

yes but Vargas is not Mayweather. Mayweather is a better fighter than Vargas. That picture is very interesting. Floyd is looking older and bulkier in that picture. He does not look like the kid fighter anymore.

floyd weighed 147 for the judah fight 147 for baldomir..he says that he weighs 151,,,i seriously doubt that 4lbs will affect him that much if at all....

[Tito BHB]

Beleive me ..Floyd is as fast as ever..

I aint no floyd fan..But seeing him train on 24/7.. Which must have been during the last week..
Still as fast as ever.. And i doubt floyd will get tired..

Bot guys are tip top right now
Peace

Yes but Vargas is also a legit full fledged 154lbr who is built for the harder punches...Floyd is a blown up 140lbr...IMO 140 was an ideal weight for him

Yes but Vargas is slow and was hit in every round in of that fight. A proper war.

I dont think this fight will be a war. Plus im sure both fighters know what there doing with their weight.
Floyd looks good!

All of Vargas wars have been proper....One thing I love about that guy...Not the best out there but he makes you fight or go home

"floyd" and "tired" don't belong together.
From his recent training clips, he does not look dangerously bulked.
I dunno, maybe that pic is a weird angle or something. Or maybe theres TWO cameras on him. (You know, the whole camera adds ten pounds thing)
If anything, the added bulk will probably enable him to take and block more shots with his shoulders without wear.
He looks fantastic. And I would highly doubt he has lost significant speed or endurance with his 4 or 5 pound weight gain.
Oscar's looking great too.

HOLY SHAT. Just realized how close fight night is.
Got chills for a sec there.

I don't think Floyd is significantly bigger than he was against Judah or Baldomir.
The only difference is that with the 154 weight limit, he can enter the ring at the exact same weight that he weighs in at.
He doesn't have to get down to 147 and then add a few pounds back on before entering the ring. He's probably been sitting at 151-152 pounds for his entire training camp.

Whereas Oscar has been losing weight, and will likely add on several pounds thru rehydration after the weigh-in.
If Floyd weighs in at 154, then I will take that as a bad sign, but he's at 150-151, that's right where he needs to be.

True..Whats more is he probably sits at around 150 ish for every day life...
Hes always in shape and trains whether he has a fight on or not..
Fair play to him.. If he were to stay around and fight at 154 a few times he probably 'could'
Just say i'll fight tomorrow and make weight..lol

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Its wired, this is the 1st time, even right from Super Feather, that ive seen Floyd actually get bigger as he moves up.

[JT Rock]

Yea Floyd looks great and during training his speed is Blazing as usual.... I think Floyd will suprise a few even Oscar with the sting that will be on his punches..... Tell you Floyd will score the TKO over Oscar late

[Pugilistic]

i just watched de la hoya mayweather 24/7 ep4 thanks to danny g and floyd still looks fast and sharp as hell

[Wadeb_21]

Yeah I agree with allot of people I think this pic might just be from a weird angle or something, plus is arm is kinda flexed which will make your arm look bigger. I have been watching the 24/7 show and it does look like he's bulked a little but not to much and also from the show it doesn't look like he has lost his speed to me, but then again once he gets in the later rounds if it goes that far then we will know if it has. Man I can't remember the last time I have been so excited for a fight. I'm having a big party at my house and can't wait.
