    167 for Martinez - Chavez Jr looked bigger than he did against Rubio...185 is closer

    The most I've seen a fighter rehydrate was 21 pounds

    Chavez 160 to 180
    Rios 140 to 161
    Ortiz 147 to 164
    Gamboa 130 to 148
    Corrales 130 to 147
    Gatti 141 to 160

    those are just off my head. If you can add more, feel free to

    Because it's the best chance that people have seeing him lose. So they want him to fight guys who will dwarf him in the ring on fight night. PBF has never looked great at 154 the very fact that he won belts there shows you how great he really is.:deal

    Maybe you should ask the white guys here that question about Rocky Marciano. A 5'10 180 pound cruiserweight yet in their eyes he is the greatest heavyweight of all time. In reality he was a bum even for 180 pound standards.

    Huh? Margs was shot to **** when pac fought him (like most of pac's wins). Margs was obliterated by Mosley and looked hella ordinary and washed up versus some journeyman in his tune-up 10 rounder. So pac's win versus a shot Margs, which was at a catchweight of 150lbs that had a rehydration limit, is supposed to be impressive?

    JCC Jr. was never considered a skilled fighter. Additionally he's a proven ****ing cheat. I still believe the marijuana in his system likely was there for a reason (probably covering up diuretics again). JCC Jr. dodges post-fight drug tests without the slightest issue. Only a Top Rank fighter... :nut Also, Sergio got all the props in the world for that victory.

    If Floyd fights Canelo he won't be fighting some shot to **** fighter (a la Margs) at a catchweight, nor with a rehydration limit. Likewise, Canelo is actually decent at boxing (unlike JCC Jr.). Floyd defeating Canelo at JMW (at his advanced age) would be a greater achievement than manny's and Sexy's victory.

    Funny how *****'s try to make out Gayweather is greater than DLH even though DLH fought up in LMW successfully and started at SFW.

    Matthyse just recently did something like 20 pounds
    And of course Canelo's 18 pounds this past weekend (Trout did 17 pounds himself)

    Prime for prime DLH beats Floyd. I still don't think Floyd should feel obliged to fight Canelo. His age and the size difference will prove to be overwhelming and unfair obstacles imo. Floyd has no business at 154 considering he can't even make 154 pounds on fight night.

    Just give up the belt, There's no point in keeping it when you have 0 plans in fighting the top/co-top guy in the division.

    It really annoyed me when Martinez wanted Floyd or Manny to fight him at 160. Both those guys have come up 7 weight divisions during their career, funny how Sergio isn't so keen to mix it at 168.

    Floyd and Manny both failed to make 154, Manny also stated he would not fight above 147 again yet people still cry duck.

    You're a dumbass. Floyd isn't best p4p because of a guy with 22 pounds on him
