    I think so to, this aint settled until the fight is over, especially vs a fighter of JMMs quality... I see a competitive bout.

    Id like to hear Floyds reasoning on this.

    If Floyd doesnt fight anyone thats actually in the WW division after this fight I will hate him even more. Its shameful on Floyds part:verysad

    The guy obviously has great talent, why does he think he needs these advantages. I dont really want to hate this guy this much but hes making it hard not to.

    Would you guys help me understand this?

    Good, I hope. There's enough divisions without catch-weights.

    Bull****! PBF never gains a bunch of weight on fight night. He'll weigh no more than 149. Even when he fought Oscar at 154 he weighed no more than 149 on fight night.

    haven't you been listening? he can't make 147 no more, and please pinpoint me the last time he was fighting below 147 to better understand my point.

    Definitely. JMM is gonna bring the fight to Floyd and we don't know how it will hurt/help JMM adding on some muscle. We don't know exactly what Floyd will be like after 19 months either.

    Yeah, but Floyd IMO will get more hate than Oscar for picking on a "little" guy!

    No it is not. Pac may have gone up, but Oscar had to come down. It was a catch weight. Not this one.

    Yep he'll try and make Pac look bad by saying JMM came up to 147 so why can't you? Not to mention Pac did it for Oscar. This is nothing more than a negoiating tool by PBF.

    if he cant make 147 why is he fighting at 147? he didnt make 140 since the gatti fight but why agree to 144 before ducking out and making an already uneven fight even more so

    if this is true, then the people who still believe Floyd didn't put on some pounds after weighing in against Hatton and Oscar are living in la-la-land

    there's a reason HBO didn't show the unofficial weights for PBF vs Hatton, and my guess is that Floyd put on more pounds than he wants to tell.
