Not as bad as when he was cutting to 145 but he was in much better shape for 205. Maybe there was some substance to what Floyd was saying about the weight cut.

Mayweather coming in 149 not surprising, a weight he is comfortable at, shows you the effort he did put in to camp also, no coasting. His arms looked strong which may sound strange I know, but I think he has been working on his power in the view of finishing this early enough. Berto was a damp squib of a way to go out, I think he wants to right that tomorrow with an impressive looking finish. I say impressive looking because it won't be that impressive when you strip away the hype. He is not fighting some world class boxer after all. I think McGregor came in a pound light, he likes to hit right on that weight limit. Maybe there were some truth to the rumours of a problem with the weight cut, then again there always seems to be with him and he has never missed weight once so not much you can say about that. I see him being 163/164 tomorrow, if he pushes up to 168 I think he is doing himself more harm then good,will gas even earlier and could be done within 3. He will also be slower which considering he isn't the quickest anyway would not be advisable. Mayweather looking very relaxed and confident again now being interviewed. Nothing fazes him, fascinating to watch McGregors antics have zero impact compared to what he can normally do to his opponents. Wonder is it having an effect on McGregor that he knows there is literally nothing he can do or say to bother Mayweather. Conor pumping himself and attempting to cow and break his opponent before they even square off is a big part of it for him, for his self confidence is huge in terms of how he performs. To look into a mans eyes and see him nonchalant at everything you throw at him could have a negative effect.
