    lol, look at this guy man, he is ****in huge at the weight, i dont care if he can make the weight comfortabley, the guy is a fukikin 140 pounder at least, check out this picture, it was taken at the final press conference for his last fight, so he was more or less on weight, the two guys stanidng next to him are 147 punders and that little chap on the far right had the unfortuante pleasure of sharing the ring with him,

    That was the final presser!? Bloody hell :lol:

    Ah well, if he can make the weight and still feel good, then all the power to him. I can see him successfully campaigning all the way to 147 pretty easily. Mirroring Floyd.

    I wonder how much he weighs on fight-nights :think? He could just be one of those with a big frame, but low in density. He's also wearing a lot of layers in that pic. I know he's got a big head and all, but still, maybe the clothes are making him look bigger than he really is.

    For a man who thinks he has "swagger" he's got no dress sense what so ever. I wouldn't be caught dead in that cardigan & dickie bow Lol.

    Here's another pic. Maybe it's the angle, but, he doesn't look that big:

    He's big for the weight, but that picture exaggerates it. That coat is huge. The pic above makes more sense.

    Combination of layers of clothing, depth perception, lens distortion, could be wearing higher sole shoes and slightly close to the camera, standing with a broader posture while Devon and Maidana look hunched.

    According to boxrec, he's 5'7 compared to Devon's 5'8 and Maidana's 5'9. Obviously we never get ONE accurate listing. But overall, he's not bigger than those guys at the moment.

    People are different densities, some are huge for their weight. If he weighs that it's all good. Thomas Hearns was enormous, but he made 147 some how, even at times on same day weigh ins. Broner shouldn't have to move up, he's not that tall for the weight class at all. Chavez Jr is the one who is gaining like 24 pounds overnight or something.
