      He has already rehydrated 7 pounds to be 140 9.30 in the morning , then still has another 12 hrs till fight time to round out at probably around 144 , its heaps of time and will not be a problem at all .

        Broner might of came in heavy but hes in shape. When your in shape you dont put much weight on overnight. And he still has the whole day to rehydrate himself. I exspect Broner to walk thru this dude.

          So Broner has to give up $60k of $300k purse for missing weight. Tarver is only penalized $2,500 dollars of his $1.1Million for using steroids.

          Anybody see anything wrong with this?

            I like Adrian Broner because I don't mind his **** talking; being a little better with his verbal skills he comes off more like an Ali style smack talker than Floyd does- and that's the only comparison between the two that's valid.

            That said, it's very unprofessional to come in over weight like he did. Mayweather never did that, especially early in his career.

            So, just because Broner runs his mouth, I hope this incident further distances him from Floyd in fan's eyes.

                Definitely, steroid users should be fined half their purse

                  I'm genuinely curious - which fight in Floyd's early career did he come in overweight for?

                    Its been scientifically proven that weight hurts you more than PEDs.
