Comments Thread For: Orlando Salido Likely To Lose IBF Title, Before The Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

BoxingScene.com was advised that Orlando Salido will likely get stripped of his IBF featherweight title after reportedly being overweight for Saturday's morning weigh-in. Per the IBF rules, a fighter in the featherweight division can't weigh more than ten pounds over the division limit on the day of the fight. Salido is said to be 140-pounds after making the division limit of 126-pounds on Friday. [Click Here To Read More]

For a moment there i thought Gamboa wouldn't be able to grab the IBF belt had he won which would have been bull**** if he couldn't..

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

He could come in at 147 and Gamboa would still beat his ass.

140 pounds?

140?damn is a super lightweight limit,c'mon 3 division up than featherweight.WBA can't give him the chance to take the title...........and people talk about catchweight fight of MANNY,please!!!!

[cupocity303]

And this is dubbed as a Unification bout?


Gamboa doesn't even hold the real WBA title, Chris John does.


This is disgraceful.

I wish Gamboa wouldn't get a chance at the belt either. Arum will use that as leverage to keep feeding him garbage opponents like Salido.

[lopez36]

a lot of fighters put on weight like that,i've seen guys like cotto put on 12-15 pounds when he was at jr welter,some go as high as 15 pounds,12 pounds seems normal,like any other fighter to me,i guess it's just the ibf who has these rules..i doubt gamboa will only put on 10 pounds

[Cafe]
