Boxers Who Were Beaten By Weight-Draining?

[F!x]

Here's a few boxers who were weight-drained and as a result were stopped by their opponents.

Chad Dawson in the Ward fight
Manny Pacquiao in the Torrecampo fight
Amir Khan in the Prescott fight
Oscar De La Hoya in the Pacquiao fight
David Haye in the Thompson fight

Who else springs to mind?

Roy Jones Jr in the Tarver II fight??

Now weight-draining can either arise when the boxer has completely outgrown the weight division and could never again be effective in that weight class. Or, in some cases, the boxer has just had a poor training camp and has had to lose a lot of weight very close to fight time, like in Haye vs Thompson.

[IronDanHamza]

Only after the fight was over.

No he was pretty drained before and during.

187 punches thrown in 11 Rounds, falling over from not even solid shots from a guy who isn't a hard puncher.

Self explanatory.

1. A weight drained Dawson got taken out by a juiced up Ward
2. Morales in the 3rd Pacquiao fight
3. Canelo against Mayweather
4. De la hoya vs Pacquiao


i'm not saying they would've won either way but being weight drained crippled them.

Canelo was close to death at the weigh in against Floyd

A Canelo at 154 would kill Floyd with one punch in the first round, fact /thread

If you can't handle the weight limit, don't sign the contract.
