    147 of course. Unless Floyd wants it at Jr. MW then we'll have a problem there.

    You're right. He isn't stupid, so he isn't going to fight at 140 (when was the last time he was there? 5, 6 years ago?) for a RING title.

    Great point. Both stand to make well over $20 million. Even a $1 million per lb. penalty wouldn't be enough to dissuade Floyd from coming in at a weight at which he's comfortable. Pac is the WBO WW champ, pointlessly asking for a catchweight in this situation would just make him look bad.

    in case you're not aware, the cotto fight is pacman's first ever catchweight fight. :patsch

    the delahoya fight was fought at the welterweight limit of 147lbs.:deal

    that goes to show how ignorant you are about the facts..:-(

    unfreakingbelievable!:lol:

    Another vote for 144, but I think it will happen at 145.

    147 if he's to defend that welter belt he beat from Cotto. no more Catchweights! he has already proven he can hang with the welters. Money won't honor no Catchweight anyway, so whats the point?

    147. I know that Floyd is the bigger guy, and Pac isn't a natural welter, but, I don't see a few pounds really helping him. Honestly, I think it's to Pac's advantage, the heavier Mayweather is.

    If Pac wants to consider himself a real WW champ the fight will be at 147, no ways around it. And for the losers who say Floyd will come in "wherever he wants" when has Floyd, other than against DLH @ 154, has Floyd weighed over 147??? seriously

    Floyd wouldn't come over 147. It's a WW fight, so that wouldn't be allowed. However, if they make a catchweight of say 145, Floyd won't drain himself to make the catchweight.
