Comments Thread For: Photo: Canelo Alvarez is Slim and Trim, Weighs 166.8

Rios started at 135 and refused to move up for the sake of titles, like Broner. Canelo isn't a career 154 lber.


Dawson isn't/wasn't that good. When will people get over that hypejob? You give Dawson a chance at 175 vs Ward? I don't. There was a reason he was a big underdog.

Sorry - Rios' weight was always fluctuating 130-135 but then he refused to move up despite the money to be made. Then he looked like he was about to die. Unlike Canelo vs Trout.


He even looks like a fatfck now vs Pacquiao at the faceoff. Brandon Taco Bell Rios

It doesn't matter where you started, if you're blowing up 18lbs it's hard making weight, especially a weight you haven't made in years

Dawson is much better than green and Miranda, and they weren't getting ragdolled by Ward while throwing 9 punches a round. However it's unclear if Dawson was better than Miranda at 168.

Any fighter making weight isn't easy unless you're in your 5th weight class.

Dawson is a mental midget. As soon as he got tagged he folded. Just like when Pascal tagged him early. Remember how Dawson was supposed to easy work Pascal? Hell he even hurt Pascal and let him off the hook and Pascal came right back.

Ward was very green against Miranda and did what he had to do. Again, I picked Ward to dominate Dawson so nothing surprised me, especially when mental midget Dawson just quit.

The difference is the ability to grow and move up in weight. Canelo is fine at junior middleweight. It's his 3rd weight class and he'd be maxed at middleweight compared to other guys.

He had nothing left, it was a shell of him in the ring. How do you feel about DLH quitting vs Pac?

Your full of sht , how can Cotto Margo and Oscar not be drained but Canelo is when they have to lose more than him and they are smaller , you got no logic you fcking pea brain !

Cotto and Margarito were not drained. They both stated why they lost. Manny was just to fast that they couldn't even see his punches. They said after weigh-in that they are "too strong for Manny at that division".

As for Canelo, I'm going by his previous fights. He is getting bigger and couldn't make previous CWs years ago and barely made 152 when he was supposed to go down to 150. Now the bigger version of Canelo, presently, ballooned to 172 in his last fight and had terrible stamina issues combined with a low work-rate. Now add that Canelo needs to drop 2lbs more for Floyd and that he is actually BEHIND the 30 day weigh-in he had against Trout. So that is what I'm basing it. Canelo is not one that can do it easily. It affects him. Some fighters can and some can't. Canelo's past points to Canelo will come in at 152 CW affected by the weight loss.

You got know idea whats hard or easy weight to lose , I know jockeys that lose weight like its cutting a head off , they push losing weight to a maximum in sport , I know fighters that the weight falls off and others that it don't its all relative to the individual you cant throw a blanket over it the way you do , that's just pure fanboy ignorance , you argue your agenda not relative facts , lol and that's probably because you don't understand them its just numbers to you .

Both were clearly drained, except Oscar's chin seemed intact

No. Feather fist Forbes broke his face the fight before. Pacs own trainer admitted that the opponent was shot. the odds were much closer than ward-dawson as well

Hey that's what i've been trying to tell you all along. Remember: "if fighter A can do it, doesn't mean B can". Glad I got you onboard. We'll wait and see whether this weight draining CW request bears fruit, looks likely
