Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo Explains That It's Tough To Transform Body Into Super Middleweight

[Roadblock]

154 to 160 is common but a leap up to 168 is generally known as the toughest transition in Boxing.

If Canelo was 6'2" and 185 fight night Id agree with you but he is 5' 8" and came from 147 and their respective fight night weights is probably only 6/8 pounds difference, this is why Charlo took the fight and why TC is contemplating fighting Canelo as he is not a full-blown 168 fighter.

we were discussing the weigh in, NOT fight night. State commissions do not care what you weigh when you enter the ring, they only care what you weighed at the weigh in.

Ok, then remind me about the last time a state commission called off a fight when one fighter was too light at the weigh-in.

I dont know of a high profile fight, as everyone involved would never let it get to that point. Even Mikey Garcia made sure he weighed enough. But I saw it many times on smaller shows where the manager was trying to save a fallout and brought in someone at the last minute but they were too small. I even witnessed a Florida state inspector seeing someone in the bathroom trying to hide a 5lb dumbbell in their shorts before the weigh in. Didn't work. It was hilarious though. Phil let the guy step on the scale, and then he deadpans "ok now lets try it without the dumbbell". Fight was dead 10 seconds later.



But since you insist on being a clown and want to continue arguing about matters you know NOTHING about, here are the Nevada rules (relevant parts in bold)

He will lose badly. I don`t care about this walking around weight, he is still only a 154 fighter.

[Doubledagger]

Nonsense, I was literally just watching Million dollars wortha game. He certainly said nothing about walking around 168. Unless your Jermell himself you're wrong.

https://********/Qhazl3kSX1w?si=q88PhdbtrclsfOOd

At 11:16 mark they asked him his walk around.

He responds that its around 168 and 170, but he has to put on weight to 175 or 180 so that ge can cut the weight and explains why.

Now your clown ass better apoligize sincerely and then stfu!
