    I highly doubt he was 160. But why not weigh himself? Typical PBF. Even though I don't think he was 160 he was huge in the ring in comparison to JMM. He should have made weight anyway. Not that JMM had a chance.

    Mayweather has never refused to weigh in the night of the fight before, so why this fight?????:think

    .......his body likely has naturally matured into a full welterweight body......

    ......if Mayweather refused to weighin on fightnight this time, certainly he wanted to hide the fact that he was a much bigger fighter than Marquez.

    The night of the fight Nacho Beristain said he was frustrated with Mayweather not making weight, that it was deliberate and unproffesional.......he proclaimed that he thought Mayweather would climb the ring at the very minumum of 154 lbs, and that it was certainly a concern.

    I think I'll believe a guy like Nacho who has never taken to exxagerations in describing his or any fighter.
    I say it there was about a 10 lbs discrepancy in weight, absolutely!

    I say closer to 160 then 150. I mean why else would he refuse to weigh in?
    If he was around 150 he would of jumped on the scales.

    And you will not criticize Team JMM (Nacho, Hoya, JMM) for easily accepting all these bullshits from Floyd?? They're the ones next to blame after the offender Floyd...

    I actually give JMM credit for STILL getting in the ring. He had the heart to take a fight that clearly was stacked against in all aspects except heart.

    PBF still looked great for a 2 year lay-off. But the man and his entire team lack class. True champions have class and respect for their sport, themselves, AND their opponent. Seeing how he lacks that, he will never be thought of in high regard.

    JMM is a true warrior since after being ****ed big time by Floyd regarding the weights, he still decided to continue fighting and didn't pull out from the fight... But is he too brave for his own good??

    After the fight JMM stated that "the weight is the problem"... It's been a problem since the time the contract was signed, it's been a problem during the weigh-in...
