Do we agree that they were sometimes bogus for certain boxers? Here DLH was announced at 147lbs, lighter than Pacquiao. This content is protected https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2023/49/4/1701983371-dlhweight.jpg It makes no sense, DLH has been fighting at 154 or even 160 for years. Same for Mayweather at Showtime. We know with the fight against Pacquiao that he was rehydrating with an IV and we should believe that against Maidana he only weighed 148? https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2023/49/4/1701983653-mayweatherweight.png
150,5 here : https://www.cbssports.com/general/news/photo-floyd-mayweather-makes-30-day-weight-at-1505-pounds/ I'm not saying Mayweather weighed 160 lbs but if he rehydrated via IV he must have cut down a bit.
HBO must have been at it too in that case, because these are his fight night weights from his HBO days before he was a big superstar. Mayweather 139 G. Hernandez 139 Mayweather 138 Manfredy 139 Mayweather 135 Gerena 135 Mayweather 136 Juuko 140 Mayweather 139.5 Vargas 141 Mayweather 136.5 Corrales 146 Mayweather 139 C. Hernandez 137 Mayweather 137.5 Chavez 136 Mayweather 138.5 Castillo 147.5 Mayweather 138 Castillo 147 (rematch) Mayweather 140 Sosa 145 Mayweather 140 Ndou 147 Mayweather 145 Corley 144 Mayweather 142 Bruseles 150 Mayweather 148 Mitchell 155 Mayweather 146 Judah 150 Mayweather 149 Baldomir 162
I'm talking especially for the period 2012-2015. Mayweather clearly seems heavier against Maidana than against Baldomir for example.
Maidana was 165 in the ring against Mayweather. https://www.latimes.com/sports/spor...a-floyd-mayweather-weight-20140503-story.html
