How Much You Weigh, Bro?

I'm 6-2 207 and in good shape but I would boil my azz down to 175 cause them cruiser weights are killers... Not that LHW is any better lol..I'm getting KTFO either way... I'd either go SMW or Cruiser... stepping in with Kovalev is Russian roulette!

I'm 5'7 and my weight fluctuates between 152-156. I was doing massive weight lifting for years and my weight was up to 170 ish. I'm transitioned over the years to just cardio and light weights. If I were to fight, I'd stay at 140. I don't believe in shrinking down to an unhealthy size. 140 would probably be my best fighting weight

5'5" :boxing: we couldve been sparring partners....all my sparring partners had at least 10 pounds and 3 inches on me.

Also like you said a slip off to the side, the overhand shot works really well. feints are a good way to set up getting on the inside. its a lost art, everyone wants to **** back and whale away yup....thats how i'd do....now im a washed up 31 year old dad.....no time to train...but hey, my son is an all star baseball player....sacrifices :boxing:

height? :boxing: 5'5" :boxing:

I think the automatic impulse is to come forward I watched a lot of Ivan Calderon and Cotto back then when I was boxing....I usually let the taller guys come to me and fought them off the pivot or just simply outmaneuvered them. Attempted to counter their jab by slipping inside and throwing my own or slipping outside and countering with a str8 right coming forward kinda plays into their game Also like you said a slip off to the side, the overhand shot works really well. feints are a good way to set up getting on the inside.

5'11 - 225, size 33 waist.

you'd be a huge lightweight :boxing: 140 you'd still be pretty big for the weight Depends, for example Postol would have 2 inches on me. I think it compensates. I'm tall for 135 but I don't have the power that some have. And John molina jr would be taller than me also.

I was around 180 when I fought as an amateur, at 6'3.

I'd probably be fighting around 147 lbs. height? :boxing:

I'd probably be fighting around 147 lbs.

I'm 5'9 and skinny. Walk around at 140. When I do weight lifting I get to 145 or 150 tops. I guess I could compete from 135 to 154 depending on how muscular I get and how much weight I add. But I think 135-140 should be my ideal divisions. you'd be a huge lightweight :boxing: 140 you'd still be pretty big for the weight

lol yeah I think so, I remember seeing a pic of him in the Ams and he was all nose haha! He wouldve probably been a killer if he were a disciplined Cruiser or low weight heavy at this stage of his career. Fighters put their body through so much BS so adding beer, pot, and tacos takes years off your prime... And yeah man I am jealous of those kinda guys, If I eat real bad than out comes the love handles. If I didnt do so much damn carido Id be a whale. He definitely wouldve made noise at Cruiser...he had surprisingly good stamina, speed, and power in his earlier days but his weight went up every fight I guess some people look at heavyweight as a reason to eat what they want....he took pages out of Mike Moorer;s " how to become a heavyweight" manual.....veal, steaks, tacos and beef

What about me? I'm 5.8 and 150. Slick. I was thinking of starting a topic.

yep...You can tell Stiverne is just a more solid natural heavyweight. Arreola kinda ate his way there..didnt he fight at 179 and 200 in the ams? its crazy cuz I have a beer guy anywhere past 165 yet my bro can get as high as the 190s and still have no gut. lol yeah I think so, I remember seeing a pic of him in the Ams and he was all nose haha!

5'10-5'11, about 150 on average. Then again, my age & still quick metabolism have to do with my natural weight. A big hindrance to not being heavier is my lack of leg muscle because of lordosis, just physically can't. :( I was getting towards 160 earlier in the year when I was healthier overall & lifting harder(gym every day in college, rn I'm out), but I have to take a whole month off for July for several injuries either way...

Yeah I sparred a journeyman a few years ago who had more defeats than he had wins, he was about 20 pounds heavier than me and I couldn't keep him off with headgear, pillow gloves etc, he beat the **** outta me, the size definitely comes into play especially as the fight goes on and you're tiring. indeed :boxing: I was more mentally tired than physically, I didnt get hit much but I hit this kid with everything and he smiled a few times I was 21 and he was 17-18 but much bigger im thinking im not getting my ass whooped by no high school kid, fvck that By round 3 the pressure was so hard I said **** it and hit him with 2 clean straight rights in a row(i saw the opening since round 1)...then my trainer jumps in the ring and says "if you throw another powerpunch, before the fourth round, you'll be doing the last 2 against me!"................welp back to body shots and jabs lol......my old trainer was a pro boxer and kick boxer, was only 2-3 years older than me but had to retire from an injury sustained in a fight

right now I'm 165 but if I was a boxer I'll the lowest I could make is 140 and the highest 154 have a small frame and only 5'8 would be to small for 160
