I am getting annoyed by this excuse whenever posters say a boxer is blown up from certain weight class e.g. a welterweight fighting at middleweight. So they think it is perfect excuse to avoid someone.
I frankly don't give a ****! :nono: If a boxer can fight at a certain weight class, he should be able to fight anyone who can make the weight. I don't care if their opposition can put on 20lbs on the next night, it comes with risk when competing beyond their weight class. That's how boxing is nowadays, one day rehydration and more weight classes. Becoming multi divisionist champion is easy.
:headbang:
It made more sense when a Welterweight would make the move to Middleweight and he fights at 150 while the Middleweight was 160. Of course this would all be on fight night weigh-in.
Lets go new school!!
