Larry, I think he was 10 pounds over at 157. I think he'll weigh in OK even if he's struggling right now.

That's pathetic in Ortiz's part if this is true. B!tch step up your game..

If this is true, he and his team are ******ed.

10 pounds off the weight 30 days out is nothing for a professional fighter... Nothing.

A fighter in training camp loses around 2-5 pounds (depending on how much body fat and water the fighter has) in a 2-3 hour session (1 hour if it's road work), so if they're doing 2 a days, we're talking about 4-10 pounds a day (of course you're going to put most of the weight back after eating and drinking, but losing 1,2,3 pounds a day is not out of the norm).

I remember stating the same for the Martinez-Williams rematch, when it was reported Sergio was around 18 pounds above the weight a month out. All of you saw what happened there...

If Ortiz was only 10 pounds off the weight 30 days out, he's going to make the weight without a problem and be strong at it too.

If he can't lose 10 pounds in 30 days, he has a serious lack of discipline -- just to Canelo Alvarez -- and deserves to lose his belt.
