I'd love to see him beat down Seth Mitchell. Pedro Diaz needs to convey that his weight is unacceptable though.
    Airich looks muscular and in shape. He doesn't have classic body proportions, as his waist is big relative to the his body. But still, you can see that Airich is toned. He's a block of muscle, despite his unflattering body proportions.

    Let's see if Airich's conditioning and strength can compensate for his lack of talent. Blubber is there for the taking. Fat, lazy, out of shape, under-motivated...maybe Blubber gets knocked off tomorrow.

      people always use that excuse but you can always diet. He also still trained for the fight. No excuse for 267.5

      You can make a case for being overweight some but not that much

        I think he is ready no matter what his weight is. If he puts in the work why should we be complaining.

          He's the most exciting, which most of the time doesnt equal talent...

          I really do not see the talent in Haye...The guy has power in his looping power swings, not much more.
          I agree Haye is not that talented at all. Nor is he genuinely that exciting. In fact he is often very boring. Tyson Fury is far more exciting to watch.

            They've been successful through "most" of their careers with the extra pounds, eating with little restriction, Arreola and Solis are set in their ways.

              man

              during the Vitali fight Lewis looked fat as **** for the standards back in the 90's era. Everyone was commenting on it, and I was like wtf is this ****

              they say Lewis weight 256 during the weight in and actually weight 260ish at 6'5 during the fight

              that was considered whale status

              **** a 6'5 256 guy now will be in great shape

              how fall the HW have fallen

                Solis is physically bigger than he gets credit for. That said, this isn't his best shape, but it shouldn't make one bit of difference--which is sort of what the problem is to begin with.

                  I think it has to do with living in America, we just have sooo many clubs and parties here, access to all sorts of entertainment, plenty of fine dining as well as really fattening food. Everybody has money, loves to party etc. Alcohol really makes you gain a ton of fat, it dehydrates your muscles and can even make working out useless.

                  I remember hearing something about Rigondeaux partying way too much, same thing probably happened to Solis.

                    Nope. For you and many others it has to do with them being 'Cuban' weak-willed people which will fold to the "American" way, because no other boxer besides 'The Cuban' will succumb to the ah so tasty McDonalds dollar menu.
