How strong a WW is Mayweather?

  1. Shane uses steroids though and has spent most of his recent career at 154. Not really a fair comparison.

    Small for a WW? The mother ****er couldn't even MAKE 144.

    He's a full fledged welterweight, you just can't tell from the guys he has fought.

    He lacks power at welterweight if that is what you are asking.

    Hes stronger than people think but he isnt the strongest ww. The heaviest hes ever weighed in the ring was 152 and that was in his last fight. Most ww weigh 160 in the ring.

    He's not a huge puncher or anything but he can hurt people and certainly commands respect when he's in there.

    Please improve your reading comprehension and get back to us. Wouldn't want you to have to repeat the 3rd grade again.

  11. Where did you hear he weighed 152?

    He would've made the catchweight if he was only going to be 152 the next night.

    He has enough power where his continues shots to the head will have a effect on his opponent. He has enough power that his style requires.

    Ask EZE, he will tell you not more than 150. That 152 is a sacrilege!

    Used*

    And actually, his most recent of his career fights have been at 147.

    4 out of his last 5 including the Mayweather fight will have been at 147.

    I never said that.

    I've already stated Mayweather probably weighed 152 numerous times, considering that's what he weighed 152 two weeks before the fight at a mando weigh in


    Don't put words in my mouth.
