    I'm aware of that.

    But at the end of 2011, in his last fight at WW, he did have himself weighed. That is the best fight to draw from, and guess what? You have your answer.

    150 on fight night.

    Less than Matthysse's 153. Or possibly even 163.

    I don't want Floyd to fight Lucas anyways. Let him beat Garcia first, but I was mostly targetting this at the big Matthysse fan who just last week said Mayweather would lose to Lucas and that he'd never ever want to get in the ring with him :roll:

    But now I guess Floyd is too big for him. That big bully Floyd should be sticking to his natural weight class of 154

    You lied and said he never got weighed. And it turned out in his last fight at welterweight he weighed less than Lucas did as a JUNIOR welterweight :lol:
    You've been proven wrong.

    Doors that way :hi:

    Floyd Mayweather has apparently been a MW fight at WW for years, until the Ortiz fight. :lol:

    This.

    Theoretically, a smart business move would be to take no less than the amount of his previous career high. The money he will make in each fight afterward win or lose for having fought Floyd and gained that exposure will be plentiful.

    No reason to turn down career high 2.5 mil.

    Now, wait a minute! Can we say that Guerrero "ducked" Mayweather if he refuses to come down from his pricing himself out?

    Maybe so, but you can make a case of Cotto being better than anybody on those two resumes combined I think Ghost is just as much of a name than Trout too, Alvarez I can see it can generate alot of money, but his resume is almost as thin as Trouts as well

    Rating don't mean **** if they did Amir khan wouldn't be rated number 2 at a ww


    Floyd is facing the lightest hitting guy in the game because he's a ***** simple.

    :yep of course not. We know if a fighter turns down a career high payday vs Floyd, then it's Floyd ducking

    I didn't get that it was aimed at somebody. You should know me by now. I'm neither a hater nor a nuthugger, just a realist.

    Mayweather doesn't get touched by Lucas, even at this stage.

    Guerrero KD'd Berto twice. Has dropped and stopped plenty of guys in his career.

    Alexander beat the **** out of Witter forcing him to stop and KO'd Juan Urango with beautiful one punch shots. He also has enough power to lose to a monster like Matthysse by only 1 mere point, if no KD, the consensus majority of fans myself included would have scored it a draw.
