Canelo-Jacobs: 170 pound rehydration clause

Sources: Canelo-Jacobs has a rehydration clause. Second weigh-in at 8 a.m. day of middleweight title fight. Neither guy can weigh more than 170 pounds. Penalty is several-hundred thousand per pound. Jacobs elected not to partake in IBFs same-day weigh-in for fight with GGG - Mike Coppinger, Twitter https://twitter.com/MikeCoppinger/status/1086821924469071872 IBF had a rehydration clause, but no matter, both are bound to the same rules and have some 16 hours or more to fully rehydrate. What grade they put U back this year?

Gee, only four pages on this thread! Where was the uproar for this rehydration clause??? Oh, I think I know why..... Unbelievable, this is totally the same as the current situation causing the uproar now. Hypocrites :confused:

This is why Canelo gets crap from people, stunts like this. Good fight, but trying to get an advantage because you're the a side is and always will be lame.

pretty pointless clause as both are fighting for the IBF title It's not an IBF rule for unifications

Not surprised at all. I actually thought this right when the fight was announced.

IBF no longer has 2nd day weigh in and it's a unification anyway, so his clause has got to be from canelo's side, and is it really necessary that they have to do this? Canelo has competed above 160 ibs before, and it's not like canelo will be at a weigh disadvantage even if jacobs rehydrates. Some of you guys got to stop with the jacobs being a cruiserweight nonsense. It was not proven, and jacobs was bigger, but didn't look significantly that much bigger in that GGG fight, and GGG being hurt and was at hospital was fake news that frank warren falsely mentioned when negotiations between GGG/saunders failed because GGG had the canelo fight within grasp back then.

Haha so Canelo doesnt want to face the best version of Jacobs, if he wins the win is less relevant, only GGG beat the best version of Jacobs. Peoples champ vs manufactured fake champ and diva. --- Hey, Dummy, Jacobs already forfeited his IBF title when he skipped the weighin vs Golovkin. Same rules for this fight and Jacobs can skip out again if he wants. Regardless, they have the whole rest of the day to pack on more lbs. Yeah, I know. You should sue your parents for your inability to know up from down, my sympathies...

Not surprised.

Advantage Canelo.

It's not IBF rules. I thought so too but the IBF doesn't do it for unifications. Don’t matter if is no longer an IBF rule fact is Jacobs agreed to it. This isn’t giving Canelo a 10 lbs advantage is just clearly makes it impossible for Jacobs to come in as a light heavyweight as he’s been know to do.

IBF rules. GGG fans all know Jacobs weighs about 235 on fight night though, LOL. It's not IBF rules. I thought so too but the IBF doesn't do it for unifications.

There were rumors GGG ended up in hospital after the Jacobs fight, he was basically fighting a cruiserweight. Loeffler had some serious questions to answer putting GGG at risk at the time.

It's not a special Canelo rule. It's an IBF rule and Jacobs is an IBF champion. They are fighting for each other's belts and for Canelo to win Jacobs's IBF belt IBF rules must be followed by both boxers. It's fair. It's not the IBF rule for unifications

Two rehydration clauses in a row for Cinnamon. Stupid.......

I have never seen anyone criticized for putting weight on from weigh-in to fight as Canelo is. According to g's fans, Canelo is basically a light heavyweight. Now, that there is a rehydration clause, apparently Canelo is a small middleweight. Haters just can't make up their mind. Still, the fact remains, I will bet all my points that Canelo wins. And no one on here, NO ONE, will bet on Danny. Everyone knows Jacobs isn't elite. He just isn't. He got schooled by g, and g is recovering from reconstructive plastic surgery he needed following a fight against Canelo. Jermall Charlo is the best at 160. He has been Canelo's mandatory since Canelo won the 160 belts he has now. He is undefeated. He is too long, skilled, and powerful for Canelo. If Canelo ever mans up, I will bet everything on Jermall. But, Canelo will vacate before facing Jermall. If not one person, on this site will bet on a fighter, that shows what people who follow boxing know. That Danny has no chance. He was lucky to get the decision over Derev, and Derev is no world beater. In fact, Jacobs was Derev's first and only top 25 opponent. The only question for this fight is, will Canelo win by ko, tko, or decision? I think Canelo will ease up and cruise the last few rounds, allowing Jacobs to make it the distance. Which Jacobs and his fans will consider a victory.

Again you are wrong. IBF Abolishes Second Weigh-in For Unification Bouts https://www.boxingscene.com/ibf-abolishes-second-weigh-in-unification-bouts--119702 I forgot about the unification rules were changed. Good catch. This is unnecessary.
