No way Maidana outweighed Floyd by nearly 20lbs.

    Watched the fight again tonight... Is it just me or did Floyd not look bigger than Maidana? Or at least the same. Not like when Gatti fought Dorin

    Does he have hollow bones or something? He is more muscular than Maidana too and muscle is heavier than fat. Crazy.

    floyd's abs our visible when hes not even flexing. floyd has a low body fat %.

    Chino was clearly bigger, arms calves, torso. Floyd has chicken legs in that fight.

    YCGS you reachin.

    165 is a solemn weight for a 6 footer. Chino is only like… 5'7. Same height as Canelo (who was also 165 against Floyd) yet not nearly as stocky.

    I was very surprised at that statistic. 155 is more believable to me.

    Showtime probably messed that up. They messed up Matthyse's weight once when they listed him as 163 lbs on fight night against Mike Dallas. :lol::lol: Maidana didn't look 17 lbs heavier than mayweather.

    so Floyd spots him 17lbs and proceeds to beat him at his own game....true ATG stuff right there.....even with all the rabbit punches, low blows, tackling, forearms, elbows and lets not forget the knee.....

    Floyd=Warrior

    Alex Ariza said that he weighed Maidana himself personally before the fight and he was 168lbs (while fully clothed).

    So yes, I can believe that he was 165 pounds. Yall are reaching yet again. I bet yall would never guess that Mike Jones comes into the ring around 155 pounds also

    They can't comprehend the fact, that Floyd does not always rely on physical attributes to win fights.

    whatever they can do to try and discredit him :conf

    There was a time when they used to say he came into fights weighing 160 pounds. Then when he showed his weight vs Ortiz, they shut up

    Yeah man....those scales were lying. I'd rather rely on eye sight on a TV screen for an accurate weight.

    SMMFH!!!

    Legs are heavier than arms, torso is heavier than arms. If you have weight where it matters you should look smaller.
