    Why The State Of New York Should Not Host Boxing Events..Unless..

    I love New York and know the fans their have great energy and love
    for the great sport of boxing, and would make a great mecca of boxing,
    but have one problem.

    THEY DO NOT ALLOW FIGHTNIGHT WEIGHT.

    I believe thats a big issue considering boxing is a sport
    categorize by weightclassing, and the fact that boxers
    rehydrate(Canelo,V.Ortiz,M.Cotto) and some don't makes it a case that should be known to the public and the fighters.

    Imagine not knowing the weights of Canelo/Mayweather,
    Garcia/Matthyese, Cotto/Martinez or Pacquiao/Rios.

    And yes a fighter can always tells us their weight, but who
    are we to believe them.

    What do you guys think,
    do you agree that New york not host boxing events unless they
    allow fightnight weight.

      I can't stand all this yapping about fight night weights lately. Just like everyone became a PED expert, now everyone is becoming a fight night weight assessor.

        Boxing operates by weight classes. As long as the fighter makes weight it's good.

          I think you meant Texas should never hold another boxing event. As corrupt as it gets.

          you're sitting here *****ing about some damn fight night weights.

            Mayweather rarely ever does fight night weights.
            How much he weigh against Guerrero? who knows.

            Thing about Fight Night weights is they are unofficial, voluntary and are typically done in the morning thus not accurate.

                  I don't like when fights take place in newyork.

                  They always end in robberies.. like with Rocky M or when they robbed Margarito in the second Cotto fight
