About 155-160 like you said.


He's 37 years old. He's not walking around at no damn 150 like he claims. He's no longer in his physical prime, so he's gonna naturally become heavier than he used to be.


He doesnt walk around HUGE in between fights, but a 5'8 155-160 lb normal guy is not big at all. I believe Floyd cuts at max about 8-13 lbs for the fight, which isnt alot, and I think you're dead on in your assessment of his weight.

if Floyd carried weight like that, he wouldn't struggle making JR middle,
also when you carry muscle, you will look bigger even you weigh the same
I know someone who weighs more than Floyd like 168 put looks frailer and smaller in comparison

Bernard talking like he could make 160 and be functional these days. Yeah I'm sure he could make the weight, but the nikka would probably be damn near shot doing that to his body at the age of 50. Like how Roy & DLH were when they cut weight against Tarver & Pacman.

He could walk around heavy and still have a hard time keeping that weight on training as hard as he does during camp. Plus Floyd want's to be quick in the ring rather than big, especially when he's fighting a bigger opponent.

We never know how much Floyd actually weighs on the day of the fight though, because he doesnt get back on the scales. He weighed in at 150 against ODLH, 150 1/2 against Canelo, and 151 against Cotto, but we never know how much more he rehydrates up to which would be a dead giveaway if he walks around at around 155-160 like me and @Skip b is saying.



I dont believe he walks around at 152:manny:

if game into the ring close to 160 it would be a huge difference of how he looks
160 of muscle looks a lot different than just a guy walking around of 160

also maymeather just got good genes he carry lean muscle mass,

floyd stays in shape though year around, so he's never too far from his in ring weight, I can see him walking around 155-157

But Floyd says he walks around at max of about 152.


You're arguing with me and @Skip b, when you think Floyd walks around at 155-157 as well?:dahell:

All we think is that he may be up 3 more pounds at max (155-160, you saying 155-157) and you trying to debate that insignificant amount breh?:dwillhuh:

Your whole argument is he walks around at 160, but because of his training he gets down to 152

so how can he possible make 160 for a fight if you say he loses so much weight training, he's suppose to not train when he fights hopkins

what you saying doesn't make sense

155-157 is quote possible for him to walk around, he might even have been 160 or lil over when he got a jail because that's the biggest I seen him

but he's not going to make 160 for a fight he's just not

then there's hopkins, he like a scientist the way he treats his body, he might be able to get down that much, but at the same time, he will never not have the stamina to compete with floyd if he does that

if hop wants that payday its on him to lose the weight

floyd has nothing to prove against him even though it would be a intriguing fight
