    Refuses to accept in-ring weights.

    Mayweather ranges from 146-151 pounds on fight night in his WW career.

    Mayweather entered the ring against Alvarez, when he fought for the lineal JMW title, at 150.5 lbs despite officially weighing in at 151 lbs. He lost weight between jumping on the scales to jumping in the ring 24+ hours later.

    Maybe. We'll have to wait and see.

    There aren't many success stories of older fightrs dropping weight and it being a success.

    Mayweather couldn't make 144 in his catchweight fight with JMM 5 years ago.

    So Floyd couldn't make 152 or 144? This have me thinking maybe Floyd didn't care about making 144 but that he couldn't.. If he fought a JMW weighting 160+ at 150, he could make 144 out he's just too good for both weight classes...

    I still don't understand why he is fighting Algieri at WW, where he is unranked, as opposed to fighting him at 140, where he holds a title and a top 5 ranking (unless you are one of the >50% that scored it for Provodnikov, which I still find to be a little ridiculous and showcases agendas because many of the folks hyping Algieri as Pac's opponent scored the Provodnikov vs. Algieri fight to Provodnikov [I went back through most of the polls and threads; it was oddly suspicious of agenda riding], but hey, maybe that's just me).

    There is a reason why Mayweather refuses to weigh himself during fight night. :deal

    So he can't make 144 or 154? Somethings wrong with him then.. 30 days out he weighs 148-151 but can't make 144 or 154? Somethings not right with this...

    He has had fight night weights for the vast majority of his fights...

    I know he didn't for Maidana II, but off the top of my head I remember these from his career:

    2013, Alvarez - 150.5 (weighed in at 151)
    2011, Ortiz - 150 (weighed in at 146.5)
    2006, Judah - 146 (weighed in at 146)
    2002, Castillo I - 138.5 (weighed in at 134)

    floyd's always fought in his weight division rather than boiling down then ballooning in weight over night.
