View Full Version : Which Boxers Starve Themselves The Most To Make Weight?????? Zab Super Judah 03-02-2005, 09:10 PM I think corrales obviously starves himself to remain in lower weight........morales, gatti, cotto, any other guys that are just too big for their weight class? joeboxer 03-02-2005, 09:19 PM spinx came in huge too, like 10 pounds over the 147 weight limit or something. Also Oscar De La Hoya had to go through serious hell to make 147 and it will be even worse if he tries to get down there again. AintGottaClue 03-02-2005, 09:22 PM RJJ and now taylor looks liek its hard for him, maybe gatti? RwK 03-02-2005, 09:25 PM Vargas and Freitas most likely. Freitas walks around at 160 or 170. Im serious. By fight time, he might have to drop 30-40 pounds from what Ive heard. Vargas has blown up at times, and I would not doubt him being close to 190-200, when not training. That could be potentially 50 lbs over his fighting weight. AintGottaClue 03-02-2005, 09:26 PM Vargas and Freitas most likely. Freitas walks around at 160 or 170. Im serious.

That could be potentially 50 lbs over his fighting weight. damn u serious? how the hell did freitas drop 30-40 pounds for what 38 figts and win em all? jpboxer3 03-02-2005, 09:27 PM Larios,Cotto,Gatti - Always have trouble making weight Celestino Caballero(5'11, 122lbs) and Diego Corrales(5'11, 130-135lbs) - Both of these two have to starve themselves to make weight.5'11 is like a natural Welter or Middleweights height :eek: Kid Achilles 03-02-2005, 09:28 PM Some people just have great metabolisms. I mean they still go through hell as much as the next guy but they lose much more weight in doing it. Zab Super Judah 03-02-2005, 09:28 PM damn vargas was huge i heard hes down to 170 now ahha i didnt know that about freitas tahst insane RwK 03-02-2005, 09:37 PM damn vargas was huge i heard hes down to 170 now ahha i didnt know that about freitas tahst insane Vargas case is even crazier. If you see him on interviews, like after 8 months of no activity, he baloons. He balloned when he hurt his back, and was not training. I would definitely say he was close to 200 pounds. against Joval, I guess we will see. Im sure they will talk about this exact subject prior to fight time. Tha Greatest 03-02-2005, 09:50 PM Thomas Hearns when he was a amateur 6'0 and 132 pounds!!! Carlos Zarate was 5'8 and a bantamweight definately Corrales Remember that guy they showed on the undercard of Hopkins-eastman Kingsley Ikeke-6'4 middleweight!!! That guy was huge but i dunno how he weighed only 160 jack_the_rippuh 03-02-2005, 10:15 PM Morales - look how fat the guy was at the press conference.. Corrales - he walks around weighing at the super-middle weight limit.. James Toney back when he did have to.. davico 03-02-2005, 10:19 PM KT loses about 25 pounds to make weight each fight and enters the ring between 10 and 15 pounds over jack_the_rippuh 03-02-2005, 10:54 PM KT loses about 25 pounds to make weight each fight and enters the ring between 10 and 15 pounds over Seriously? I'd expect that kind of thing from Arturo Gatti, but I didn't know Kostya Tszyu was like that too...He looks like a small guy, though..I couldn't imagine him being 165lbs. Knicksman20 03-02-2005, 11:19 PM Seriously? I'd expect that kind of thing from Arturo Gatti, but I didn't know Kostya Tszyu was like that too...He looks like a small guy, though..I couldn't imagine him being 165lbs. He came into the 2nd Mitchell fight weighing at the jr middle weight limit. That's why him & Cotto are "stronger" than the other 140 lbs. guys. We were right about Chop giving Cotto hell in that fight this past weekend, lol!!!! The Phantom Menace 03-02-2005, 11:24 PM Cotto definitely. He looks 20 pounds above his weight class. I wonder how much he actually weighs during fight night. shadymg 03-02-2005, 11:28 PM my votes' also for Cotto & Corrales, chico, just cuz it has to be being that tall, and cotto just cuz he friggin weighed so much the day after weigh-ins NAB 03-03-2005, 01:56 AM I heard Tszyu walks around at 170 BBFM 03-03-2005, 02:01 AM speaking of vargas i emailed him dont know if he replied but i got a reply asking who he thought would win the fight(erik vs manny) he thinks manny........ :\ pacmanrulz 03-03-2005, 09:18 AM Pacman when he defended his WBC 115lbs title in thailand. Midastongue 03-03-2005, 10:34 PM Cotto was wrong for weighing that much against Corley comepana 03-03-2005, 11:09 PM How about Cintron,he's a huge welter.Its that true about Morales being fat after fights? :eek: Remember when gatti was 100 pounds over the limit and almost killed that guy named gamache that was insane. RwK 03-03-2005, 11:16 PM How about Cintron,he's a huge welter.Its that true about Morales being fat after fights? :eek: Remember when gatti was 100 pounds over the limit and almost killed that guy named gamache that was insane. That was also one of the ugliest knockouts I have ever seen. Gamache dropped like a sack of potatoes. :) Mr. Violence 03-03-2005, 11:23 PM Jermain Taylor looks like he's having trouble making Middleweight...He is a big Middleweight, he can probably afford to move up to LHW. comepana 03-03-2005, 11:24 PM It was scary wasn't it...his eyes turned blank he was out from the first shot. |
