Comments Thread For: Derrick James Won't Make Jermell Pack On The Pounds For Canelo Clash: "Want Him To Be Fast"

Good. If he tried to put on extra weight that he's not used to, it would slow him down and sap his gas tank for very little benefit. Fight at the weight that's comfortable. If you want to pack on extra muscle mass, it takes a year or two to train into that properly. Not really worth it for many fighters.

Elvis Rodiguez v Viktor Postol
Quniton Randall v Willie Jones

Buenas dias, thoughts on those match-ups?

Quite sure I'm going with Postol to upset Rodriguez at 4.10/1... Also tempted by an unlikely early KO win for Frank Martin (first two rounds are 46/1, the third is 21/1), but I think I will stick with Postol's win, as barely probable as it is...

My guess is that just like Canelo at 154, Charlo is already in the ring in the mid 170s. Without much change at all he'll be close to 180, just like Canelo is. The biggest difference will be not having to dehydrate for the weigh in.

I am watching tape on Rodriguez.

You aren't familiar with the other two?

No, in all honesty. Not enough to bet on that fight.

I think that is smart. Khan was touching Canelo good but had no threatening power. Mell does. This will be interesting.
