Back here in the Philippines (delayed telecast), the commentators remarked that FMJ refused to step on a scale before entering the ring. Is is true that Mayweather declined to be weighed in entering the ring? If not, what was his unofficial weight at fight night?
Exactly. Everybody drops weight outside of heavys or guys moving up multiple weightclasses (many of them floyds opponents) They guy cheated, that extra two pounds turns into a huge advantage for the bigger man who didn't have to really push himself hard to get it off, it's obvious as hell.
The points not that I have, idiot. The point is that so many fat lazy wannabes on here have not, and yet despite their total inexperience with it, deem themselves experts and pretend like they have a ****ing clue what they are talking about. If you don't know something, just shut the **** up about it, don't assume you do and make a fool of yourself. If you've never weighed in you obviously won't know the advantage of being able to not get the hardest pounds, the last pounds, off, so shut your ****ing mouth about it because it would be like you trying to explain the finer points of quantum physics.
do u still believe that? Floyd look like a middleweight in there and id be willing to wager my nutsack he wasnt less than 150 in the ring.
Yep,look at 2 lbs of bacon or steak or something and imagine thats body weight you have to shift in a short period of time.Its a lot. Funny way to put it,but its some perspective.
The weight works exponentially as Beebs explained earlier in the thread, not only for the water weight gain, but also because as you go lower and lower in weight, the lbs are going to have a greater and greater impact in size. Add a lb to full grown pig, you wont notice a thing. Add a lb to a gerbil, and pretty soon Floyd buys it and names it daddy, gets it a leather sadist outfit and they disappear in a Wynn Suite for a week. Anyways, I don't think it matters much in the end. Floyd was going to win that fight anyhow. Still, looking foward to him fighting some guys who belong in the ring with him, you know, guys who are at or around his weight division, not three or four under his own, who have been calling him out for years.
Beebs, you cannot seem to make a clear point about anything. I think people are agreeing with you, and still you argue. And why do you deem your opinion (whatever that is) more valid than anyone else? It's not like your a fighter.
JMM didn't dry out he moved up and added weight which probably made him slower. JMM was not weight drained.
