sergio walks around 175-180.
he can comfortably fight at 168. stop making excuses for his ducking of great prime opposition and tolerating his attempted cherry picking of welterweights.
sergio can fight at 168. he just doesnt have the ambition.

He can barely even make the 160lbs for the weighin and weighs considerably less than the other middleweights on fight night.

If he gets a competent S & T coach he could put on some more muscle keep his speed and fight much more comfortably at 168.
He'd have to gain about 15lbs of muscles to be the size of Kessler, Froch or Ward.
15lbs of muscles while doing his regular boxing routine and conditioning?
At his age?
Yeah i don't think it's feasible without a complete shift in training approach or banned substances. Or do we expect him to fight as long as Hopkins?

he doesnt have to weigh in at 168. that is just the limit.
Pac in all of his welterweight fights NEVER weighed in at 147.
Oldschool fighters used to do this all the time. If sergio was so great 168 is where he should be fighting. He doesnt have to come in at 168. Come in light.
Guns dont kill people. People kill people. Size dont win fights. Fighters win fights.

He's a 154'er that had to move up to 160 to find the bigger pay days. He could fight at 168 no question just like Manny fights at 147 when he's really a sfw, but he would be at a big disadvantage.

I always thought he had some weight problems, I remember the 2nd Paul Williams fight he weighed like almost 180 pounds 30 days from the fight. He wouldnt be a big SMW but he could move up and still be competitive.

Trolls don't kill my brain. Thinking size is irrelevant kill my brain.
