    Mayweather says that he made a career decision years ago to start fighting at his walking weight, which is 150 pounds. Because of his metabolism and his work ethics in the gym , Floyd is able to eat what ever he wants and not worry about weight gain.

    "At one time I realized I have the skills and the sharp mind to beat these guys [at higher weights ]
    so why would I hurt myself to get down in weight and go up another 20 or 30 pounds overnight "
    Floyd goes on to say because of his work habits in the gym he is able to eat 4 to 5 time a day.

    "When we're at the gym , we don't have a bell. you don't hear a bell. " It has been documented that floyd spars 8 or 9 15 min rounds while alternating sparing partners during the rounds.

    Seems like a winning formula thus far.

    He's a gym rat. His preparation is bar none. I've repeatedly said that he probably walks around in better shape than many fighters enter the ring.

    He's always trying to inflate his achievements, this is just another example.....'Oh everyone I fight is bigger than me'

    It's just the usual bull**** as usual.

    This he is dismissive with his claims, but the dude takes very very good care of himself at all times

    The point is, this kill any rumors that Floyd's walk around weight is 160… he walks around at 150 or 148 at best .. He's been at 148 for the past 4 week already without gaining or losing any weight. That just goes to show that he must stay in the gym on the regular, which why he able to stay in condition and one point with his weight .

    How the **** do you know? Do you weigh him in your bathroom or just take everything you read as fact?

    The latter I think.
