Excerpts:
For Corrales, it meant making the dreaded 130-pound limit one last time; one final episode of long days with only a g****fruit to eat, of jogging in rubber suits and of endless steam baths to get down to the limit. One more time, and he’d be off to the 135-pound lightweights and living fat, never having to take off those terrible final pounds again.
He walked up to the scale, and the fight was, in a sense, lost right there. For all his efforts in the steam bath that morning, shedding 8 pounds, he was still 132--two pounds overweight. He went back and ****** the 2 pounds off in time for the weigh-in. A day later, his body both starved and waterlogged from his ensuing rehydration, he entered the ring--146 pounds at fight time--and the results were a disaster.

So you see folks, the history of weight draining was started by Floyd himself as early as 2001, months before Pac even had his first fight in the states.

Mayweather fought him in January of 2001...that article is 2 years after the fight.....show me an article around the time of the fight in which Diego & his team used weight as an issue....Comment

Where do you think Corales was during those 2 years.. in a country club. He was in prison.. Obviously he is not goin to gain weight. And will obviously lose some. In fact I wouldnt be surprise if he was malnourished.
But all of this is not important because all you have to do is know that he was shredding 8 lbs the day of the weigh in. Plus he was 132 even after going through rigorous process (on the day of the weigh in) tryin to cut the weight...
I dont need to make an uneducated guess because all I had stated was what happened the day of the weigh in. He was gaunt and totally out of it.
There was no uneducated guess because it happened.
What you are doing is making an uneducated guess when you are using his weight 2 years after when we all know it had nothing to do with what happened in the weigh in.Comment

yes i seen it...but the evidence I have is much much better....and that evidence is right after the fight, after he was beat up and TKO'ed.......he NEVER uses weight as an excuse....how convenient to do so 2 years after the factComment
