    Wait, let me get this straight.
    You think he weighed the same after a full camp when he was an active professional fighter, as he does now that hes been retired for over a year,eating what he wants AND wearing clothes????

    Literally none of that makes senae

    Even if you don't like Floyd like me you shouldn't deny he was a great boxer

    His personality mellowed some as he got older I'd say all great boxers have an ego it's most likely part of what makes them so good

    Eating whatever he wants? Are you with him 24/7 to see what hes eating? If you think hes just sitting around eating twinkies youre crazy. He is still working out and staying in decent shape . No not the same after a full camp because obviously he had to make weight to get in the ring but after the weigh in his weight went up into the mid 150s easy. Floyd fought at 147 and claimed he walks around at no more than 150 but ive always and anyone with common sense knows that was bs.

    He's only weighing in the mid 150s NOW.
    He weighed 160 with a sweatsuit and shoes on!

    Out of training and retired,the guy weighs in less than 160 while most ACTIVE WWs walk around near 170.

    This video shows just how small of a WW Floyd was.

    He's now a promoter who spends half his time sitting in a beach and he STILL only weighs in the mid 150s

    We talking Floyd not other WWs. Not sure how any of what you said contradicts what i said. His clothes being on doesnt add much weight. At most 3 lbs. A pair of sneakers usually weigh no more than a lb and a sweat suit about the same so what are we talking? 158lbs maybe 157.

    This did two things for me

    ~ Impressed the hell out of me. For a guy like floyd to be retired, elite rich, living it up, to only weigh 160 fully clothed is simply impressive. He could make 147 again no problem.

    ~ really makes me start to believe he was doping for Pac. I was naively willing to believe it was for rehydration, but thats really, really hard to believe now.

    I just weighed my self with and without a sweatsuit and sneakers, I am also the same height as Floyd so similar sized clothes and i added 5lbs, and that's not taking into account underwear, socks and a t shirt, considering he might have also jewelry on underneath as well, could easily be close to 6lbs, walking around at 154, for retired 147 fighter is impressive, And he is clearly not 160lb fighter, he would need to eat to up to that weight.

    Lets say hes 157.
    Most top WWs GET IN THE RING, more than that! After 6 weeks of dieting and killing themselves in training.

    Heres Floyd walking around, retired, out of camp weighing that!

    Mikey Garcia who fights at LW walks around at about 160, and he we have a guy who fought at WW and LMW who has been retired for nearly 18 months, spending the time promoting and chilling on a beach.

    What is your point? This video proves hes a small guy.

    If you want to see the difference between a good sized LMW and Floyd, look up the time Austin Trout interviewed Floyd after one of Gervonta Davis fights.
    The guy looked massive next to Floyd

    Walking around at 160 fully clothed is impressive. I'd love to see Flotd fight one more time at welterweight
