WTF is up with boxers today...you have guys like Danny Garcia, Rios, Alvarado, etc walking around about 165 - 180 lbs and fighting down at 140/147. Personally I think Boxing needs to cut that shhh out. Start setting up mandatory next day weigh in's where you can't weigh more than 10 lbs the division you are fighting in. Just because someone can drop 40 pounds doesn't mean they should be fighting guys at 140 when the most their opponents weigh when not training is in the low to mid 150's.

I've seen Danny's Instagram account and he doesn't look anywhere near 160, I'd say somewhere like 152 and Alvarado just began ballooning up in weight after the second rios fight, he's lived on the scale since he was a kid, can't throw those two guys in there with the likes of rios
