    Wait- are you saying his walk around weight should br factored into how we evaluate his career?

    That is ridiculous. His career is based in what he does in the ring, not what he weighs 3 months before camp starts?

    What he does in the future is irrelevant now. Should he grow out of LW as he ages, ok. If he cant make 135 he isnt a LW.
    I don’t think it’s ridiculous

    I apply the same logic to Loma, Broner and Donaire, as examples. Dominant at the lower weights, but as they moved up, they didn’t shine nearly as much. All 3 had question marks regarding weight, and I personally don’t put as much value on their earlier careers as much as their later ones

    A fighter like Crawford though seems to be just as dominant at 140/147 even despite being huge at 135. Shakur Stevenson and Inoue look to be similar

    but feel free to disagree

      Tf are you talking about.

      Just answer the damn question like a real man.

        Thats is what he should had said but he gave a dignified silence to his detriment because he now has dorks like yourself guessing his weight and revealing your theory with everyone.

          For the people that keep claiming, that making weight is not a issue 'They need to understand that it has always been a issue, and the severity of that issue? Is at a all-time in this modern era of fighting'.

          Due to modern day fighters weight draining themselves in mass, in order to be the big man on fight night.

          Here we are in another big fight, the second fight of this year were? The weight limit and the fighter making the weight, is most of the pre-fight discussion.

          This is all a bi-product of the modern day toxic weight draining culture. The sport of boxing did not experience such controversy within the lower weight divisions while fighters were subjected to the same day weigh in rules etc.

          Note: The competition within the lower weight divisions is for me at a all-time low 'The competition is not pure, and boxing fans don't really know what they are watching. Are fighters training to win and fight primarily, or are they training to just weight drain themselves?'.

          This is why the Heavyweight division in terms of competition, is pretty much consistently in terms of the competition 'The best division'. Regardless of the level of skill, the competition is more honest and pure 'Just two fighters optimally prepared to have a competitive fight, no weight limits or catch weights just open class raw competition'.

          It is specifically the day before weigh in, that has endorsed and encouraged some fighters to create a new toxic subculture in boxing of weight draining 'It is a historical fact that, the weight draining culture to the level that we see today? Is a completely modern phenomenon' etc.

                I can’t speak for him but being called paper champion to now being called undisputed champ and weight bully is not a bad upgrade

                    He beat the man that beat the man. It’s not his fault his job is to beat whoever is in front of him and so far he has managed that in 3rd gear.
