Ever seen a 79kg (=~175lbs) person in a swimming pool looking like that ? If he is in off season and packs on a bit of fat he easily weighs 95kg.
Same size as current HW champ Usyk in the Amateurs on -91kg:

How can a fight be fair if people are coming in that much heavier ?
how does anyone know for sure what he weights fight night? from time to time this info comes out for certain boxers somehow or else they give the info out themselves, did either happen for him? or are people just guessing and guessing and guessing
The way he rag dolls guys and fought at 200 sometimes in amateurs people are assuming he must have huge weight cuts but reality is massive weight cuts are a young man's game and those guys always move up but if he's still making 175 at 40 then it's not an abnormally huge cut or he would have missed weight and forced to move up by now

Personally I'd be very happy if boxing changed rules so fighters have to fight at their natural fighting weight.
Then we would see them at their genuine best while removing the health risks from making weight.
The obvious issue is whether the resources would exist for regular weigh ins outside of top level fights.
The risks of making weight are massive. And to be honest it makes a mockery of the limited weight classes.
Well he's like 40 and still making weight so he isn't THAT big or he would either 1. Be forced to move up or 2. Be failing weigh ins
People just seen him rag doll so many guys and assume he must cut 30 lbswalks around at 190
Buff Guy Artur has incredible muscle genetics because looks bigger than Gvozdyk who walks around at 200

Beterbiev has said he walks around at 86kg which is around 190lbs.
Canelo walks around at a similar weight but they're genetically very different.
Beterbiev is very muscle dense and has alot of sinew strength. Canelo has weight lifted himself into being a low output and explosive fighter.
Strength wise it seems Beterbiev could toy with them like little kids in the ring. I guess I'm confusing his raw strength (which is a talent of itself) with compensating weight that goes alongside strength increase.

Garbage thread. There's no such thing as a "weight bully."
Just another thing mentally unwell fanboys made up to criticize fighters they don't like who made weight.
Shawn Porter fought Usyk in the ams. He must be a weight bully too!
Idiot troll.
Yes SP is a weight bully and a BUM boxing wise. He cannot get away with that jiggly bouncy swarming with armpunches style at higher weights. The only reason he can compete at WW is primarily because of his size, chin and secondary because his conditioning is always very good.
SP would have never amounted to anything in boxing if it weren't for his huge weight cuts.

If you're fighting people already campaigning in your weight class, you're not a weight bully.
A weight bully is someone who keeps taking fights with opponents from lower weight classes and making them jump up in weight.
