How is Floyde anymore of a true welterweight then Pac I mean the man highest weight fight night has been like 150 pac is 148. Neither are true welterweights and there last outings are the against almost the same exact people. Anyhow i guess if i had to go with top guys its Froch or maybe Martinaz.

I have not seen a recent fight night weight of PBF in HBO but just looking at Floyd standing next to Shane Mosely who usually comes in 160 lbs at fight night looks about the same size. Floyd should at least be close to 160 himself or at least 156 lbs IMO.
PAC is about the same size as Juan Manuel Marquez in fact Marquez is an inch taller, and Marquez looks alot smaller than PBF when they fought.

Floyd? What nonsense! Who on this planet ever regarded Baldomir as a legitimate threat? Who thought the Hatton fight SHOULD be at WW? Who can justify fighting a LW at a WW CW and then not even bother making weight? Mosley was the most legit opponent, but even he was pushing 40 and coming in off of an 18 month layoff. That is huge for an older fighter. He has taken good opponents and found ways to chip at them in terms of weight or age. He never fought them on even terms. Baldomir was just mediocre.

I agree with those that have suggested Froch, now that is who I regard as a true fighter. He is willing to take on anyone. Floyd could learn a lot from someone like Carl Froch.

Floyd does not rehydrate to 10-15 pounds, he usually does it 1 or 2 pounds especially for the JMM fight, Jazmerkin pointed this out and read it in his official Ring Magazine that he got. And Floyd has never rehydrate that much in a fight ever. Let's not make things up.

Froch no doubt and he deserves credit for it.

not trying to nake things up just speculating, if he was Pac's size then how come he can't even make the 144 lb catchweight limit vs JMM? Pac recently comes in this weight at weigh ins.

Can somebody please post an actual screenshot of PBF's fight night weight, I haven't seen one.

Because he didn't care or want to. I'm pretty sure he doesn't have a problem making the catchweight, his ring weight fighting JMM was 149 or so as said by Jazmerkin. Jaz also pointed out what page it was in that particular print edition of the Ring. And I've always considered Jaz to be knowledgeable with boxing and one that isn't a nuthugger of any fighter. So if FLoyd's ring weight is around 149 and JMM's ring weight usually coming into fights now is around 145-148, Floyd beat JMM with his skills not size advantage as people have been saying.

And no Floyd is not a natural welterweight, a natural welterweight would be around 157+ on fight night.

Could you post a screenshot or atleast a scanned copy of that issue. I am just dumbfounded by the fact that Foyd Mayweather Jr is a mere 149 pounder

Like I said Jaz stated it was in Ring, I don't question the guy on these things because he has arguably the best boxing knowlege here right next to Cutmemick and is pretty unbias when it comes to boxing. If you want go pm him and ask the exact issue it was.

BTW, can you answer me why Pac said he's afraid of needles but has tatoos all over his body? No one any boxing forum has been able to answer this?
