Geez man, what a freaking joke. The dude just fought a couple months ago and made weight then....what happened? I can pig out for a few months, eating all kinds of nasty schit, drink a case of beer every weekend, and not work out. You give me 4-6 weeks and I'll be down to under 10% bf guaranteed. It's just crazy that these dudes don't get their stuff in gear early enough to come in to the fight ready.

Looks like something just went wrong, his body just cannot shed the water, similar to what happened to Mikey. Everyone around him says he trained harder than ever, and has honestly tried making weight and they're not sure what happened. He's never had weight issues

Ward said he saw it coming from just looking at him.
He jinxed him

Kovalev is the future king of the division. I like Stevenson but he's not beating a monster like Kovalev. Don't expect Ward to move up anytime soon

Haha, ward aint moving up, and yeah, I like Kovalev as well.

should've inhaled some helium. rodriguez just tryna even the playing field with ward.

[Rip Chudd]

Ward won't move up... Kovalev has him shook

Shook from someone whose best win is Nathan Cleverly?

Looks like such a small event - not befitting the consensus #2 P4P fighter

Sog looks ill IMO. We will see tomorrow.

Missing weight just confirmed to me that Rodriguez is getting stopped.

Rodriguez not making weight just confirmed that this was only meant to be a tune-up fight for Ward.
And that's what it will be -- now everyone knows.

And all that talk Rodriguez delivered was nothing but a bad joke.

Looks like Rodriguez will not even attempt to weigh in again, will give up 20%, will not fight for the title and cannot weigh more than 180 tomoro

Don't take this too seriously -- usually Ward walks 182-185 in the fight night... Therefore this was only meant to be a tune-up fight for Ward.
And that's what it will be -- no matter what Rodriguez said in exchange for the huge payday he received...
