    Why is everyone seems to forget that when they do fight, Floyd will weigh over 160lbs while Pac will only weigh 149-152lbs. That is like a 10lbs difference give or take. I give more props to Pac because he is always fighting bigger guys and I don't know if I could say the same for Floyd. Tell me what you think.

    no one is forgetting this. Ofcourse Mayweather is the bigger man, its obvious. I HIGHLY doubt Mayweather will come in at 160. Pac can't be doing catchweight fights forever even though the man is only 5'6". Pac is like a pitbull.

    Some people think floyd is scared of this and that but its not true. I know that because he fought an extremely huge oscar at 154. Why am i even stickin up for floyd? i cant stand the dude!

    I think it's too early to preemptively devalue a win for a fight that's not even signed yet.

    Also, if Floyd is too big for Manny then Manny shouldn't fight at welter. Floyd doesn't fight at light heavyweight for that very reason.

    Floyd can weigh close to 160 when he doesn't train.When he had that little stunt with the WWE and his thing against he Big Show,the scales they weighed on before the event had him at 158 or so and the scale was accurate.
    Full blown training mode,even if he drinks soda during training,he probably only has to rehydrate 8 pounds or so so i think he still fights as a jr mw.

    who said anything about weighing 160??? floyd said in his interview on ESPN that he couldnt rehydrate past 150 because his conditioning was so good- his body fat was so low, and his weight was so on point- i.e. his metabolism was so fast- that he couldnt get up to 155 like he wanted to. id be surprised if either of these guys come in past 150. theyre both very very small welters. theyre a solid 147 though. but they dont squeeze down like a cintron, mosley , etc .

    Size and weight aren't as important of advantages, given how Mayweather fights.
