    Funeka, Williams and Caballero

    So Funeka is a 6'1" guy who had to used illegal substances to go down to 135lbs. Some people are saying: "no wonder how he made it down to 135lbs..."

    So what do you think about Caballero(5'11" most of his career at 122 now 126) and Williams(6'1" some say he's taller, at 147-160)?

    Is it possible for those two to also use DIURETICS to go down in weight?

    Williams is acceptable being from 147-160 but Caballero at 122?

      Paul Williams didnt have to lose much weight to make 147. Hes a naturally skinny guy.

        Williams apparently walks around at 156 or so he says which seems impossible to me, but yeah.

        Caballero really can't make 122 anymore and so he moved up to 126.

            Caballero is going to be an extremely hard opponent to beat, Jeff Mayweather made him into a technical monster. Not a devastating puncher like his style used to be. But more of a boxer type style that will win fights by decision.

            I used to think Gamboa and Lopez would probably beat Cab, because I thought Cab was a fraud. Hell, I thought Yordan had a good shot at doing it. Not after last night, Jeff Mayweather is taking the right route for his fighter. Should have known, Jeff is very good underrated trainer who doesn't get enough coverage. Jeff brought the best out of Sultan Ibragimov, even if Ibragimov came to survive against Wlad. Ibragimov destroyed and humiliated Briggs.

              Random testing would solve this.

                Like I said Williams is acceptable. But what about Caballero? Is it natural for a 5'11" guy to go down to 122? Even 126? Funeka was caught and NOW people are saying, yeah no wonder, or, yeah that makes sense, or, yeah that wasn't natural for a guy at tall as Holyfield to go down to 135

                  I don't see much benefit from taking drugs to lose weight, thats unhealthy and would weaken a fighter. It outweighs the benefit of fighting guys naturally smaller then you in my opinion. Funeka lost all his big fights and was robbed in one anyways. And the one he was robbed in was against another fighter who didn't belong in that weight-class either.

                    I guess its possible. Corrales was 5'11 and fought as low as 126 for those who forget.

                    People say Williams is closer to 6'4.
