- "I woke up and I weighed 146. I guess my body is operating in a crazy way...so I called my chef over again to cook me pasta, and then I had someone go pick me up a steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, and broccoli again, so, you know, just try to keep the weight on, and actually, when I went over to the arena, I weighed 49," stated undefeated pound-for-pound king Floyd "Money" Mayweather, who gave FightHype.com an exclusive interview at his Big Boy Mansion just hours after his dominant and impressive victory over the previously undefeated Saul "Canelo" Alvarez. Check out what he had to say about the difficulty he had keeping his weight up and the day of the fight!

this dude is 146 and beat a dude who walks around at 175 smh wow truly great
And he’s about to be 150 beating a 200 lbs guy
@@user-rf5wb3sz1f LMAO!
U act like like canelo didn’t haven’t to get his weight down a lot Floyd had a advantage to just gain 6 pounds canelo had to lose like 20
@@christiantamez2022 Ohh shut up, canelo tried to gain as much weight as he could thinking he had a advantage on floyd bc flood the naturally smaller guy! Floyd still whooped Canelo's cheating ass. Canelo did not win any round in that fight!! Canelo DIDNT deserve to fight floyd at that time and that's why canelo got his ass kicked!! So why is canelo going around crying telling BENAVIDEZ he's done nothing to fight him!! Yeah right we are not stupid, If Canelo calls himself a champion we'll champions takes on ALL challenges because that's what REAL CHAMPIONS DO!!😉. But we all know Canelo's a hype job that uses steroids to fight European white guy's, canelo pulls the Robbery on Lara and both the GGG fights. #Christian, you'll never see a Mexican with the talent of the GOAT FLOYD MAYWEATHER! SO KEEP DREAMING!
@@christiantamez2022 most boxers cut so much weight and rehydrate and look excellent fight night and when your in your early 20s its even easier to loose weight and put it back on , and lets not act like alvarez was fighting at middle or super middle AT THE TIME . Its a strategy used by so many boxers having a weight advantage being the bigger guy
Sorry haters Floyd's a true 144 lb guy beating up on 160 / 170 lb dudes
hes a true 147 you mean he isnt no 144, were talking average cause hes like 151 walking around....but we know what you mean he just is way to fast for people an his defense is to tight hes either sliding back with the shoulder or just moving his head..... honestly he fights a bit more aggressive now cause he doesnt have the legs he had when he was younger but hes able to push the pace an counter you...
VizuILL UniversalSuffRage u do realize ur on the person on the planet thinks that Pac has a snowball chance in hell to beat Floyd right
you do realize your like everybody else on the planet who dyck rides floyd right.....?....smh
Universal Suffrage what happened? Money won and your the ones making excuses not him lol
u wanna trouble? WTF are you talking about man the official SHOWTIME tale of the tape from the night of the fight shows Mayweather 150 Alvarez 165 and you can easily find it in google images. Before you talk out your azz do some dam research 1st....
Can you imagine how much more dominant he'd be if you just cut weight for once... he could easily fight at 140 and destroy smaller guys but continues to challenge himself against bigger and stronger boxers
No lol cause there wasn’t many money fights at 140
@@beetlejuicekoking1286 at the time, who the fuck was fighting at 140 that he hadn't already beat lol
@@kevinrodriguez9659 educate that fool
@@NewAgeSlaves literally said the same thing in different words. u funny
Imagine if he really challenged himself and fought Canelo at 160 😬
Wish I could eat that meal and only weigh 146.
You can just not everyday
Big Mac Train like him.
Nightmare Nightmare lmao
LOL, sure thing buddy.
Do the cardio he does and try to be heavy lol
Always been small and smaller than everyone he fought since 2008. Yet found a way to win.
Yea he a Smart guy he just waited for them to age out or caught them early in their career!!🤣
@k m wheight matters to be honest wheght divisions are for the reason bigger guys generally have bigger power becouse speed +body wheight equals more power simple if u get two guys who are simmilar in skill set and one wheights 200 and other 170 out of 10 times first guy would win way more than lighter guy
@k m why do they have weight classes then?
champions dont fight catch weight fights. period
@I know I’m gay when I say this but 20lbs is actually a lot. Hell 10 is a lot. Go watch boxers like jarret Hurd and Jaime Mungia at 154... Literally just walking through punches to get to their target because they weigh so much more
If any fighter wants to fight Floyd, come see him at 147.
47 likes 🤣
And now his fighting logan paul at 200 pounds🤦🏾♂️
And Floyd is gonna school him beyond belief.
And of course he wins... again
Logan paul 😂😂😂.. Mayweather fans be like greatest of all ti......... Never mind
@Gina Thompson No one’s salty. I just know Floyd’s schooling Logan.
Boxing genius, Money May all day!
Coward day all day😂

He’s every young boxers inspiration
@@lionsinofpride3479 u ain’t shit in life😂😂
boring all dat
Pure genius. Everything he done is pure class. He made the best look average & always looked like he never been in a fight.
That's why they all HATE on floyd! They hated floyd so much they created the coward Canelo! The WBC is a joke allowing the cowards LOMACHICKEN & CANELO to duck Undefeated Black fighter's. Boxing nowadays is being destroyed bc of these "SCARY" COWARDS" who I think shouldn't be in the ring if they don't have the ball's to take on challenges!!
With every other fighter weight and size is always calculated into the equation as a factor but with Floyd nobody ever shined light at the fact everyone he fought was always like 10-15lbs heavier then him and always much taller. Mans a legend
Well him and Pac-Man too. Both came from smaller divisions
@@creamofthecrop5868 not just the fact they came from smaller divisions, there aren’t many fighters in history that can go up in weight like that and still dominate opponents that easily while being outweighed in virtually every match up
NOT MUCH TALLER, BUT DEFINITE AS HE MOVED THEY WERE HEAVIER.
Much respect for all the great videos Fight Hype!!!
Thats it. Thats all. "Its all about the skills"
Skills makes fights its not all about the weight...TMT
Pernell used to do the same thing! These guys are amazing at what they do
Yea with him sittin there u can truly see how small he is... Best fighter ever tho.
He is the best technician that thrived in a weight class where punches do not carry severe knockout power.....he is not the greatest boxer ever....and he is nowhere near the best fighter when you bring into consideration other fight sports...
@@thunderhammer593 keep watching disney princess movies with your daughter. You clearly dont know shit about boxing.
@@thatssokj1700 you clearly don't know shit about fighting.....

Ben Baller #YouAlreadyKnow #MuchLove and I love how YU edit Floyd's video's to where I can receive my message!
Amazing never seen more disciplined fighter in this
Money may is a cool dude man. Keep shining floyd!
He's always in shape, probably never needed to cut weight
He used to train hard so fights could be easy for him
He trains hard not taking that away from him but ellerbe also said that he just has tremendously gifted Gene's and don't put on weight in an unhealthy way! He ain't gotta work out long as well to define his muscles. The guys just incredible.
The scales were correct. When you 1st wake up, the food you ate the night before is already broken down so whatever you weigh in the morning is usually your actual body weight. If you eat a meal & step on the scale, you'll notice that the food & liquid can give you about 3 to 5 lbs of extra weight while sitting in your stomach so Floyd most likely ate prior to the weigh in so he wouldn't seem so light. I'm guessing that's why he was drinking so much water just before the weigh in.
Beyond impressive Floyd been fighting guys bigger than him his whole career
That profile 😂
Who made it?
An Absolute Specimen! He seems to get better which I never thought was possible. He does everything perfect. Getting his Dad back to end his career and work more on his defense was the best move he could make. Roger was the man at offense and his Dad was a Great defensive fighter. All I ask is to give my Hometown Boy Garcia a shot at 147. No, he won't win, but he just hit the Motherload. My 2 favorite fighters now on top. Boxing is back, believe that!....PEACE!
Greatness! True GOAT
He’s naturally a small man be could fight at 135 if he want 2
@Robb CoochiesIayer The guy was just stating that Floyd is naturally a small guy, which is true. There’s nothing wrong with being naturally smaller, it’s not an insult.
@Robb CoochiesIayer he is small, most fighters cut 10-15 lbs to fight at 147. Floyd cut less than 5 if even...
@Robb CoochiesIayer you’re obviously slow...
@Robb CoochiesIayer god damn who broke your heart to make you this mad?
@Robb CoochiesIayer Small man syndrome in full effect I see.
Tell me how I’m “pRojEcTinG”. 🥴😂👌🏻
I'm exactly the same. So hard for me to gain weight

I'm hungry
blacckk nigaa me to
It’s crazy cause it’s hard for me to keep weight too if I’m training and in that situation you can’t not do cardio cause you have to be in shape and if you have a fast metabolism it’s gonna be so hard to keep that weight
I got the same exact stats as Floyd. 5ft7 I go to bed weighing in at 152 and wake up at 146 I just happen to lose weight over night like crazy
50-0
I’m here 10 years later.
his body was shining and elevating
Amazing.
I wish I had these kind of problems
Wish we could see these two fight in their prime.
Nobody never told him he was fighting Blake Griffin.
The man's a legend
Dang i'm having a hard time keeping my weight down. I wish i had the same problem as him. I love to eat food.
It's all about skill, not weight. The Cain Velasquez vs Brock Lesnar fight really opened my eyes years ago. Brock cuts weight to reach 265 and probably weighed 280 during the fight. Cain doesn't cut weight at 240. Brock tried to outmuscle Cain with his size and wrestling but Cain just kept using technique to get up everytime.
You can tell he feels like crap
Not because of his weight. He just got through fighting Canelo's steroid using ass.

TRUE THAT !
He can do it bro.. Floyd got the skills to pull it off
bro what happens is before the way in on friday they eat in a specific way to lose weight (predominantly water weight) - so as soon as they step back off the scales and go and rehydrate themselves and eat loads they can easily put 10 or more pounds back on.
great name
Great comment section ! Everybody is giving due respect !
Im 5ft 10 and walk around at 155lbs. I eat anything i want yet never put weight on. Its either a gift or a curse. My wife hates me because she looks at a cream cake and puts on 3lbs. My grandad used to call me "Young Thoroughbred"
In 173 and 6'1. Anything I eat I gain alot
My sister is like that. She could eat a whole tub of ice cream a week for a year and lose 5 lbs
Who’s here after the Ryan Haney fight 😂
The best to ever lace em up.
Scared of bhop? First of all bhop is too too old to have the conditioning to fight a guy like floyd. Plus don't no one want to pay no 100 bucks to see old ass bhop get whooped, n I'm from philly. Bhop just try get some cash and b apart of a show that big
Floyd Mayweather weighed 150.5 lbs during the official (Friday afternoon) weigh-in.
Saturday morning he woke up at 146 pounds. After replenishing himself, he weighed 149.5-150 pounds come fight night weigh in.
The only weigh-in that matters are the official weigh-in the night before a fight. Come fight night, you can come in at whatever weight you deem fit.
As for his 3lbs weight lose in one night. I'll chop it up to metabolism.
he looks so honest in this video i don't like how he behaves on allacces he looks like he is acting in this video he looks honest not acting up for the camera
Why does floyd just have paparazzi in his house? 😂
he got weighed twice once on friday which is the official wait that is written on paper. The other is the unofficial. Canelo weighed in at 152 on friday but 165 on fight night.
Hate it or love Mayweather an underdog on top! #respect.
When the fuck was Floyd ever lab under dog. The only time I can remember Floyd being anb Underdog is the pac fight
That fight against conelo, he was really great, he was too good, I think I might eat pastor, broccoli's and mushrooms from now on
Anthony Sefo Ahahaha
Who was he fightin in this interview
The master
I'm not that deep when it comes to the science lol I just used a little common knowledge gained from experience but hey thanks for the insight.
Martinez should focus on people his own size.
Floyd is really small dude that's been fighting way bigger dudes. If he wasn't a defensive wizard he would not be talking clear today. He has to fight the way he fight because he's too small to trade with a Canelo, Guerrero, Cotto, Mosely and more. The dude is smart and used Intelligence to beat big and strong Brutes! Gotta give floyd is credit for preserving himself all these you to maintain on top by taking the approach he took in boxing, which is HIT and Don't Get Hit.
Love him or hate him, Floyd Mayweather is a legend in boxing that retire undefeated.
Litrally never heard a fighter moan about being too light 😂 and drinking too much water lol
Pac used to put weights in his shorts in his early days. When he first started in welterweight he was always under 147 on the scales and was eating full meals on weigh in day.
It’s a pain in the ass to constantly force feed yourself... not everyone enjoys food like that, especially when not hungry
You do understand that it can be difficult to force feed
Then no one would care. He acts that way to generate interests. He's actually very humble. I had the privelage to meet him and recognize that.
Scary that he could make 130lbs still
Floyd is so damn fine his work ethic makes him even more fine 😍
Running champ
Floyd's Metabolism is working like a radioactive fat burning machine because of his hectic, intense workouts! Hard Work. Dedication.
I wish I had this problem.
Him having that problem just let's you know of how hard he works his butt off, his metabolism must be working like crazy.
if he has trouble keeping weight up, why was he so dehydrated that he needed an IV? why dont ppl ask these questions?
+Christianity Boxing Mafia I'm Guessing the EPO keeps him mobile in the those crucial later rounds so his opponent doesn't stalk him down and beat him up on the ropes to win the decision and ruin his record. I just watched the 1st Castillo fight from 2002 and Castillo really cornered him a lot during the last rounds. if mayweather found out that other top boxers are doping I wouldn't blame him for doping with EPO too
The Canelo fight was at 154...Manny Fight was at 147....he always has a problem with dehyadrations because of the way he runs.
joser384 Do you have an answer that is based on facts and not speculative hate and bias? Then shut the fuck up.
Um because he actually trained super hard
because he drinks distilled water before fights
almost 8 years ago
Thanks UA-cam see y'all in 7 years
Canelo weighed 25 lbs heavier than Floyd on fight night. Just shows skills beats size and power. #TBEfloyd
He was 15 lbs heavier
@@somerled5513 Doesn't matter, still bodies Roid boy
@@sliding_by8607 I was just correcting him you salty boy
Is it just me but does floyd look exhausted in this clip
This was recorded after the fight
Agreed.
true.
You are right I don't want to see that fight and I do like them both but I think it's not fair for Garcia to pick up 7 pounds and fight the best fighter in the world at his natural weight that just seems to be a little much especially with no tune up fight to get use to the weight Garcia. Just not fair
martinez is breraking down, the chaves fight seemed to take somthin outta him from the injuries, if floyd does fight him it would be at 154 and people will say he was drained and "past it"
I hear dat. I'm 270lbs and can't keep the weight be on.
He sound like patrick. A roastbeef , a Pizza, , crabbypatty
I thought it's a statue when I saw the thumbnail
He should fight Sergio Martinez or GGG that would be amazing.
Never happened ):
Ghost Rider 🤦♂️
The only thing left for Floyd to these remaining fights is go out there showcase his God given talent which consist of cat like reflexes, precision timing, accurate punching, EXTRAordinary defense, Supreme Ring generalship, & his uncanny ability to adapt to ANY fighter to the world & retire. I really don't see any (Logical) opponent out there worthy enough to even fight Floyd unless they fight twice before Cinco de May aka Cinco De Mayweather & shake up the world.
Being lighter gives a speed advantage tho
Nobody paid attention to all the Big Macs, whoppers, and other fast food he was eating on 24/7 and all access. He had no choice but to eat that stuff to get the extra calories to keep his weight up without stuffing his face 6 times a day with clean food.
Don't forget that as you sleep, you inhale 2 oxygen atoms and exhale 2 oxygens plus one carbon. A big factor in weighing less in the morning is carbon depletion!
Honestly this should be his last fight at 154. Anybody with eyes can see he's barely a Welterweight he's not a Jr.Middle. He should finish the rest of his career at 147, has no need to gain or drop weight he's the champ they can come to him.
01:24- about the skills..
boxing has nothing to do with weight. 10 lbs-20 lbs doesn’t add that much more power to your punches.
Canelo is hyped that was ha
Quick shout out to myself!
the sergio martinez fight would be hug
I have opposite problem
Not gonna lie a Sergio Martinez seems like a good fight but then again you talk about the money at this point i think the money would be with swift garcia at 147 i see that happening in may
I wish Floyd's attitude was like this everyday lol
Ram of the Rose than it wouldn't be entertainment
I see what you mean but I think Floyd is forced to sit down on his punches at 154 and doesn't have to at 147 cuz he can just use his boxing ability. But who knows had he not hurt his hand he just might have stopped Guerrero
i want to see it after i know pac is back in true form, if he loses or looks bad against rios would you stil lwant to see it??
The thing is that floyd dont need the money anymore hes set for life and actually a Martinez fight would make way more money that garcia bro.. Martinez has a country behind him, and hes a hot name from the chavez ppv
people say that will shock the world but i bet you Martinez won't call out Andre Ward and that is somebody his size.
