Was Devin Haney weight cheating?

[MulaKO]

I still find it very hard to believe rehydrating in one evening to a gain of 25 pounds without any kind of help
Miracle ?? I think not

It's frauding on the same level as roiding imo.

Massive potential damage to the weight-fraud as well.

Take it from Regis Prograis, who will likely stay at 140 for the rest of his career. He's got a small body frame unlike our friend Haney who is most likely walking at 172 right now.

It is called weight draining, and? At some point it has a accumulative negative effect upon fighters overall conditioning.

This is a new phenomenon in boxing, within the lower weight classes 'During the past boxing era's, when the same day weigh in rule was applied? Weight training tactics was not used to the extreme extent that they are in today's modern era by certain fighters'.

The reality is? Very few fighters from my observation fighting in today's modern era, would actually be able to travel back in time and 'Fight at their competitive weight, because many in some form are using weight draining tactics. Devin Haney along with fighters such as Canelo Alvarez at 147 to 154 pounds and David Benavidez are some of the most prominent fighters to use these tactics at World and Elite level boxing'.

Note: I would not say that Devin Haney is weight cheating, he is just being opportunistic and using weight draining tactics. The toxic culture of weight draining is extremely negative, and as I have stated before? The practices have a accumulative negative effect upon a fighter over a long period of time.

This is why the Heavyweight Division in terms of competition, is the best division 'Regardless of the talent in the division. People know what they are watching, because? There are no weight limits, no catch weights or rehydration clauses just two fighters preparing optimally at their own digression. Most other sports in the world are a open class competition, and in nature itself 'The competition is open class'.

In track and field athletics, the athletes are not marginalized into weight classes 'All varying types of physiques compete against one another'.

The Heavyweight Boxing Division, as a open class division 'Is the Ultimate from of raw competition in combat sports'.

In the lower weight classes, recent fighters such as Floyd Mayweather Junior, Carl Froch, Bernard Hopkins have been some of the few modern day fighters who have not used weight draining tactics during their careers to the extreme. And if you check their careers, at no point have they ever used? Making the weight as a excuse for a under par performance. They also had solid longevity in their careers and no dramatic performance decrease, to the same level as their nearest competitors who incorporated weight draining tactics to a more extreme in their careers.

To conclude: Devin Haney is not weight cheating, he unfortunately is just a bi-product of this modern day boxing era 'Haney has been one of those fighters who believes, that weight draining is a mandate in order to be a top level fighter. At some point in his formative years during his training in boxing, he has internalized those practices and accepted them as apart of boxing culture'. At some point the accumulative negative effects will become apparent to him, if he is to continue to use these toxic weight draining tactics 'And this will be the point where he demands that he must move up in weight. This is usually the trajectory with fighters who use those toxic weight draining tactics. It seems to be a tactical move, which they are aware will at some point not gain any advantage and only be at a disadvantage, but until they reach this point? They will continue to be apart of this toxic weight draining culture in boxing' etc.

Haney has been doing what the ABC’s ask for but rehydrating 25 pounds in one evening sounds very skeptical
He’’s cheating in a legal way
By doing so , it makes weight classes non existent
It’s a loophole which needs fixing imo

No such thing as weight cheating or bullying.

This term is a creation of losers on NSB who need an excuse when a boxer they like loses to someone they do not.

That or they preemptively try to create an excuse when they believe in their heart and soul the boxer they want to win will lose.

If you make weight, you make weight.
