    you sound like you're tryin to sit in the back of the school bus with all the cool kids and they are rejecting you so keep on talkin about them behind their back to anyone that'll listen, until they finally let you sit there, then they'll be the coolest and bestest friends you ever had. maybe learn some boxing? any aspect of it? naaaaaaah why do that...

      Fight night weight is not important. That both fighters make the weight is the important thing as has been said.

      All the hard work has been done by the time of the weigh in, so to concern youself too much of how much your opponent weighs fight night is insecurity and taking away at the task in hand.

          Can we see some evidence of this?

          Slipstream, MurkaMan, I'm looking at you.
          167 vs Lopez

          172 vs Trout

          But what's ur point...are u crying because some posters are saying he weighs 3 to 8 lbs more? Yet u think those same posters are apologists because they think 20 to 24lbs is too much of a difference?

          Ok I get it 3 to 8 lbs is obsurd....20 to 24 lbs is nothing.

            I am noticing that his fight night weight increases with every thread talking about Mayweather-Alvarez. It went from 165 to 180 in a couple of days.

              I'm not sure.
              You know you could just look it up before just blabbering stuff out (at least you added you weren't sure). Canelo weighed 172 and Trout weighed 171. Sure they're big boys, but so long as they can make the weight without diuretics I don't complain.

                The thing is there are techniques and substances (legal and illegal) that helps you dehydrate quickly and then rehydrate and remain healthy and strong. Chavez Jr is the best example of that right now. He shouldn't be fighting middleweights.

                Canelo is not nearly as bad though.

                  Rios is very su****ious too, I think he went from 139 to 161 overnight (against Alvarado).

                    agreed. my statement was under the assumption that no drug aids are used to make weight. as long as the fighters are under the limit, what they weigh on fight night is of little to no importance to me. like i said, to me it sounds like a preventive excuse in case their fighter (the "smaller" one) loses.

                    though there are exception to every rule - the de****able disgrace chavez is one of those exceptions. he indeed should not be fighting middleweights, as they let him use whatever drugs he desires to make weight, and come in at around 180-185. that is a little absurd...

                      May be why Canelo looked a little gased. It was the biggest he came in.
