    160.

    Floyd loves pretending that he eats burgers and fries all day and walks around at his fighting weight. More importantly, he likes to play the "little guy" card who fights at WW just because he can - ala Manny Pacquiao.

    Truth is he's aging and cutting weight to make 147. He looked dry at the weigh-in like most fighters do, and like most fighters weighing-in at 147 - he came to the ring at 160.

    He looked AT LEAST as big as Maidana who we know to be 157.

    WBC had him weighing 150 lbs 30 days before the fight I doubt he gained 10 pounds since then.

    I know what you mean, but being light on your feet doesn't mean you weigh less. Rehydrating a lot of times gives you an extra boost in your legs on the night, which is what we seen from Floyd.

    Floyd looked bigger and more muscular than he did the first time around with Maidana. He showed footwork speed and skill that you cannot have when you are weight drained. When you are weight drained, you are tired and can't move like that.

    He CLEARLY came in to the ring weighing 200+lbs, but he didn't want anybody to know because they would all say he's ducking Klitschko.

    That's an extreme example, lets not remember it was Floyd who demanded Canelo make 152 because he rehydrated too much. But then two fights later, when there isn't a catchweight, Floyd doesn't even weigh in on fight night. The rules only seem to apply to Floyd's opponents. Floyd takes every opportunity to make up his own rules and uses it to his advantage via money incentive. Then he doesn't even follow those same rules himself. Him not weighing in on fight night is very telling.
