    I've seen fighters come in over-weight before, but this one is very strange.

    Mayweather 146, Marquez 142

    LAS VEGAS - The long-awaited weighin for Mayweather-Marquez showdown finally took place at 3:15 p.m. Pacific Time at the MGM Grand's Garden Arena, the site for Saturday's 12-round welterweight fight.

    Floyd Mayweather Jr. weighed in at 146 pounds, his usual weight for the welterweight limit.

    Juan Manuel Marquez tipped the 142 pounds, just two pounds over the junior welterweight limit.

    Since the fight was made in May of this year, there has been speculation as to how much the fighters were contracted to weighin.

    The Mayweather camp maintained that it was a welterweight bout with the usual 147-pound limit, while Golden Boy Promotions, the promoter for Saturday's fight, claimed that the fighters agreed to a 144-pound catchweight.

    Obviously, Team Mayweather was right. It is not known if the Mayweather side agreed to pay Team Marquez any bonus/penalty money for every pound that Mayweather came in over 144 pounds. According to Keith Kizer of the Nevada State Athletic Commission there is no such agreement.

    Did you see Dela Hoya's face when it was announced 146?

    Smell bull shit here also Marquez was trying to say something about the weight but it looked like no one would listen to him.

    Why was 144 mentioned so much then? I'm getting calls and texts so it's certainly not been well known it was at the Welter limit, I never seen anything but 144 mentioned on here or in the 24/7 or in any press event. Wait till everyone orders the fight then drop the bomb! Arseholes

    This is just Floyd as a pure Welter it's such a mis-match it's untrue.

    If PBF jr. is 2 lbs. over the 144lb agreed upon catchweight, as we all by now ascertained, then why is there no protestations from the JMM camp for the perceived excess weight?

    Something's not intact here... The handling and media provided for the weigh-in, for this fight, is apparently subpar. Loose handles provide the worst grip!

    The enthusiasm of promoters/handlers of this fight must have been stymied by the less than expected trunout. I would hate for a negative bombshell in the news once they figure the math or number of $$$ will not make a GO feasible.

    I would hope it is all is set for tomorrow's GO for Number One vs Numero Uno! It's too late otherwise for another postponement anyway!

    All the best for tomorrow... nonetheless!

    I hear that. I will be really surprised if this fight even has a competitive round.

    Marquez is a fat 142 and Mayweather is a cut 146.

    The true losers are the fans. Why watch?

    Well he has made no sacrifice to fight a lightweight so it is a big deal, we were all lead to think the fight was at a catch of 144. So shut your arse up.

    Tomorrow night Floyd will be 149.


    Marquez will lose a pound to 141.

    HBO didn't want the weigh-in too embarrassing so they gave Marquez a chance to go and eat doughnuts for an hour and try to make weight again
