Trinidad is he a legitimet middleweight or not?

[Moon]

..... while MAB came in over Junior Jones came in right on the spot at 122. When that happens that fighter who came in overweight he losses the belt on the scales and only his opponent can win it.

Jose, Question.

If two guys meet for a vacant belt and one is on-weight and one over-weight, they won't be fighting for the same prize? The over-weight guy would be fighting for a "win", while the on-weight guy is fighting for a "title"?

Ha he was 12

when you use the term "a guy started at" that means what weight did he turn pro at. Not what he weighted when he was a child.

lmao so true
by that standard
all the HW were straweights at one time

[m00ks]

Of course he is a middleweight, when he was "retired" he was around 180...At least when he fought Nard he didn't request Nard not to weight more than 156 like DLH did... He can even go up to 168 IMO...

why not 175

i dont think the question was
can he carry the weight
anyone can plump up 20lbs
no big deal
think he was aksin if hes a "true" as in effective and honestly belongs there

Lets see...Dlh and Nard fought at 156...but it was for the middleweight titles...

do you happen to remember what tito and mayo weighed?
that was for some intrem title as well

don't remember...check boxrec. mofo

i think the correct term would be that tito only weighed in at 140 a few times. you can still be over the weight limit and have official fights at your weight class unless its a title fight, i believe as long as both fighters agree to it. why youre allowed to do this is beyond me but thats just the way it is. tito has grown over the years i feel he is a complete middle now. he has the power to knock middleweights out, can take a middleweight punch and his stamina is great, what more do you need?

Exactly! You are allowed to fight for the title if the sanctioning bodies allow you to. Barrera WAS fighting for the title even though he was 2 pounds overweight. It's at the other fighter's discresion if he wants to put his title on the line while at a disadvantage.

I think Jose thinks he knows it all but, in fact, has no clue of what he's talking about.
