    Why are most multiple division champs roided up weight bully's ?

    Gold Tier (Weight Bully AND Roids AND Catchweight King):
    Canelo, Pacquiao (weight bully in lower divisions)

    Middle Tier (Weight Bully/ no Roids / no Catchweights:
    Beterbiev (not mulitple division champ but could not make weight against Browne), Teofimo

    Lowest Tier (No Weight Bully, No Roids, No Catchweights):
    GGG, Loma, Wilder, Crawford

    Why can't boxing be more like the lowest tier ?

    Terence Crawford isn't a weight bully, but Loma is fighting all his fights with a big height and weight advantage. Canelo def the biggest cheat and weight bully in boxing, pacquiao only at the very low divisions. You should also add Usyk and Wilder to the bottom tier once both only weight 220 at the heavyweight division against giants.

      Crawford is not a weight bully. He was bigger than Gamboa but since getting to 140 he's had taller, longer guys like Postol and Indongo, and naturally bigger guys like Horn. Porter is big for 147.

      MAB, Morales, JMM had all been at FW longer than Pac when they fought

      Canelo hasn't fought a naturally smaller opponent since 2016

        Shorter, but he's just as strong, same weight, more muscle than his opponents at 168. I wouldn't say he's a bully at 168 but he's def not at a big size disadvantage like Lomahcenko is, you look at him next to Commey and Lopez and their both taller than him and there arms are twice the size of his, Canelo's arms/traps/delts are much bigger than his opponents.

          Lol it was 2 ounces and he DID make weight in regards to Beterbiev.

          Also this thread is ****ing ******. If you can make the weight and not fight at dumb catch weights who cares.

            Because when fighting based on walk-around weight, alot of 'champions' would not have been champions. Fck all that draining, I prefer to see fights without draining to make it more fair. Draining has nothing to do with boxing.

              Then watch strictly amateur boxing I guess? Same day weigh-ins etc.

                  No there is nothing like pro-boxing but it would clear up some of the bull**** that is going on right now. E.g. Gervonta Davis a 3 divison champ while ducking Loma since 2014 ? This **** has to stop.

                    The only reason he is a champ is because of his size difference and thereby also strength. Look at how basic he is as a boxer. Let him move up and see how he fares. BUMerbiev.
