    Seems chubby to me, I have a full time job, only train about 8 hours a week, and I'm in better condition than Maidana.

      Maybe I'm seeing things, but after that fight it seemed that when the big HBO stars were in fights where they were the bigger guy, the network would always have Lampley tell us that the fighter opted not to go on the unoffical scales.

          OK, thank you. was a long tme ago. I am sure there was an issue with Gatti on the unoffical weigh in before the fight.

            Probably was weighing in a lot, so he stayed away from the unofficial scales so to not arouse su****ion.

            The prison stint made him cut back a lot and now he doesn't mind weighing in.
            Ok well now you're just pulling things out of thin air.

            You're also talking nonsense.

            He didn't do unofficial weights for Hatton which was before his retirement and "bulking stage"

            He also weighed in for Ortiz unofficially which was before he went to Prison to do his "Cutting stage".

            It's complete garbage.

            He's been consistently 149-151 for everything he's weighed for between 2006 and 2014. Whether that's unofficialy fight night weight, weigh in weight, or a 30 day weigh in.

                Unlikely.

                Floyd said himself in the Mosley build up. "If this was a strength contest I would probably lose. Good job it's not all about strength".

                His strength is overrated and has been since the day he walked down Mosley.

                  He was 150 on fight night against Ginger.

                    Hes grown into WW something fierce. That was said during the build up.

                    Post fight Shane and ****m were singing a different tune.

                      I actually like knowing what a fighter rehydrates to. It's ona good tool to evaluate a fighters performance fairly.

                      Like Donaire v Narvaez-Narvaez fought like a biyatch but I didn't hold it against him because donaire outweighed him by 20+ lbs. I gave Lomanchenko the benefit of the doubt because Salido was so huge.

                      But I understand why a network wouldn't air it.
