    I've yet to see Crawford even come close to struggling to make weight, unlike Broner.

      Ennis is a bad mofo no matter what. He peiced up a very sturdy fighter in Lipinets, ate some 2s to the body and like 2 or 3 clean headshots with ease all while beating the fight out of his opponent. Props to Lipinets, I think a lot of other fighters wouldve went down sooner.

        Have him fight at 140, and you'll see it.

          He makes weight WTF is the issue exactly?

          Doesn't look weight drained or look as if he is killing himself to make weight so the "Weight Bully" thing is just something else of the miserable boxing fans to B^tch about I guess. As long as they make weight on first Attempt with no issues then they can fight at that weight for as long as they can make weight

                he's your typical american weight bully, just like Charlos, Spence, Crawford, Teo Lopez, Tank, Hurd, Ortiz and many others bashing on the smaller opponents, the probleme is they have 32 to 36 hours between the weigh-ins and the actual fight and a whole night of sleep to recover, imagine for example Loma-Lopez fighting straight after the weigh-ins, would Lopez go all 12?

                  That's not an American thing. Canelo, Alfredo Angulo and Chavez Jr used to rehydrate 20lbs overnight.

                    Weight in should be the same day fight goes. You are not a welterweight if you are 155 lbs in the ring.

                      I don't know if it's weight bullying as long as they make it. In the Gamboa fight, at 135, Crawford was 156 fight night. There are many examples like that. I think Floyd was at least 160 on fight night against Marquez, fight was 144. That's how boxing is now.
