It means they can boil down to unnatural weights, and then have time to rehydrate themselves and probably enter the ring 10-12lbs over the divisional limit, leading to some horrible mismatches.

    How else could De La Hoya, a natural welter, win titles at 130 and 135? There's no way he could fight healthily at those weights were he forced to weigh in the same day. Likewise Gatti, whose ring weight for his "140lb" bout against Joey Gamache was 160.

    Restore same-day weigh-ins and we'll go back to having fighters fight where nature intended.
    Great post

    Yeah and less injuries to fighters like Paul Ingle,Gerald McClellan etc.

      Look at the mans punch output , have you ever see him tired or hurt? because i haven't, and ive seen him hit flush by Margarito and Quintana on more than one occasion.

          No i did'nt my thread is entitled Margarito would be a nobody if he were in his natural weight div. It doesn't matter how well he performs at the weight that still does not mean its his natural weight it just means he exploits a loop hole in the procedure IE the weigh in the day before the fight.

                What is funny about that ? like i said that does not prove he or Williams are natural WW its just means they exploit a loop hole at the weigh in.

                idiot!

                  He is able to walk through punches, because he should be no where near the WW div. Take away Margarito's physical advantages he is an average fighter.

                  When Marg has faced guys his own size he has looked bad or been beaten, Clottey/Williams.
                  how is welterweight not natural for him if he can make it easily without draining himself? use some plain and basic common sense WILL YA??

                    He only makes it, because of a loop hole(day before weigh in)

                    How many times

                      Williams was tired and hurt a few times the last few rounds of the Margarito fight and the clips that show Williams vs Margarito in this video proves it.
