How is it possible that a grown man weights 147 or less?

[real raw]

it's called genetics. how are humans 7 ft tall?

I am not very high, something like Canelo. My weight was about 150 when I was 13 years old. It was about 170 when I was 17-18.

Now I am over 40, I am not fat and I am around 180. I would have to cut both legs of to make 154.

I don`t understand how grown men, bigger than me, "make" weight around 147 -160.

The smallest weight limit I could "make" would be a light heavy limit around 175.

You fail to understand a couple points. First height and body fat percentage. Every inch that you are higher you're likely to be about 7 lbs heavier. To give an example, A guy who is 5 7 147 lbs at 6 percent body fat just has less excess fat on him. 5 7 at 147 is the equivalent of 6 feet 190. Also a guy could be 180 lbs but have a very high body fat percentage. If he strips his fat off, he could be 150 lbs.

Because they're just small men.

I mean look at flyweights and bantamweights, they're grown men the size of a 13 year old girl how many men do you see in public like that? Almost never. You could walk around all day and maybe see 1 or 2.

That's why it's probably very easy for flyweight to have success as a boxer, because there's so few adult men that size, so if you're that big and take up boxing, you'll probably become well known

How many sports cater for men the size of little girls? It's really boxing and horse racing.

It's much harder to have success as a fighter around 168 than is flyweights who are basically a tiny minority of midgets.

The average man has less than 160 lbs of muscle on their body if they got down to single digit body fat percentage. Most would be around 140-150 lbs.

I think very few appreciate what their own weight would be if they only carried 6% body fat and then dehydrated 15 pounds of water.

5'5-5'7/8 guys if in shape naturally weigh 147lbs.

Crawford walks around at 175+. He makes 147. Crawford would probably look bigger standing right next to you at his walk around weight considering he's all muscle.

My most aggressive "healthy" cut puts me somewhere in the 175 range. Which means I could probably hit 168 if I really drained myself, MAYBE 160. And I'm taller than most fighters. But I walk around at about 185-ish and have a fairly controlled diet to begin with.

IF you're walking around at 180 and don't think you can make 170, there's something wrong.

Bone density, muscle mass and diet. If you're a shorter guy, it's quite normal to be in the 150-lb range if you take of yourself.

Man, I would be a half dead if I rehydrate to 150 or less.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Because you are a most likely the typical sloppy 180lbs... try training like a fighter and you will be 146lbs by December 4th. All that macho water you carry is useless once you start to train like a boxer. Facts..

Man, the last time I was 146 lbs was when I was 14 years old.

You guys have frames and bones like teenagers or what?

Have you ever been in top shape before?

The fat boys walking around at 200+lbs will weigh 150 or so once leaned out and in prime shape.

Man, again, I am not fat.

Are you convincing me all guys can make 150 if they are in shape?

Canelo is as high as me, but he is about 10+ years younger. can he make 150?

If I was 5-6 years younger, I would probably make 168 weight limit by rehydration.
