Well I'm current and qualified on the 744 as well
Weights Kilograms Freighter
Maximum Taxi Weight 395,986
Maximum Takeoff Weight 394,625
Maximum Landing Weight 302,092
Maximum Zero Fuel Weight 288,031
Nominal Empty weight 161,000

Weights Kilograms Passenger
Maximum Taxi Weight 397,800
Maximum Takeoff Weight 396,893
Maximum Landing Weight 285,763
Maximum Zero Fuel Weight 244,939

The BCF aircraft have had their max landing weight increased as well as their Max Zero Fuel Weight increased. There is no option for them to get increased payload via a MTOW reduction as there is on the 744F. The nominal empty weight of the 744BCF is 159,000.
