When they asked him what happened he said they had a bad scale in camp. LOL.

I mean I can understand fighters being half a pound or a pound over because sometimes fighters just can't take anymore off and there's body just won't budge it. But 6 and half pounds is ridiculous. I get the guy fought at 140lbs last time out and hasn't boxed since the Hitchins fight but he's had plenty of time so coming in over the light welterweight division never mind the lightweight division is crazy. Should definitely be handing over some of his purse to keyshawn for that

I think it's better than fighting a blown up jr light. Weight drained doesn't seem as bad as undersized.

Interestingly enough Keyshawn didn't seem to care that Lemos missed the weight. All he cared was that he was getting paid extra money. Sounds very similar to Devin Haney before the Garcia fight. If Lemos wins, I am sure the whole weight issue will become very significant for Davis.

Whether he cared or not doesn't change the fact that the extra weight is an advantage.

Google is definitely my friend too! Touché, you got me on the Canelo-Jacob’s but you were still wrong on the Marquez-Mayweather fight!

Good debate tho, I learned something new today!

It was! Thanks for that. It was fun.

I'm confused. How did an article about Lemos not making weight turn into a racial thing involving Floid Mayweather , Shakur , Conceciao, J.M .Marquez , Daniel Jacobs ,Haney , Garcia , Canelo and all of these other dudes Where's the tie in ? Seriously , why do y'all care so much about peoples skin color ? It's just melanin , that's all. Do y'all sit around keeping a scorecard of what color different people who do different things are ? It seems like such a waste of time and energy to make your own lives so small by obsessing over inconsequential stuff like " This color guy did this , and that color guy did that...etc, etc. Seriously, what does their skin have to do with anything ?

It was a big deal during the election where commentators really focused on the voting tendencies of those with various melanine level, so it must be more important than economy in America. /s
