[MrRolltide91]

Golovkin 172.

Small Middleweight

[tiliheels]

I imagine he was heavy when I saw this pic.

so much for the small MW floyd ducking b/c he can make 154 talk..this dude is a weight cutting bully who is scared of Andre Ward..

You can easily sweat that out in a couple hours.

don't know why some are surprised that he's at 172,he probably weighs over 180 when not fighting,a lot of fighters do this(go down that much)...juanma when he was at 122,cotto when he was at 140,all fighters go through this,mostly all do,check the 30 day weigh in and you will see how much they weigh,its not that they should start moving up in weight,i bet the supermiddleweights do the same thing by moving down that much

Who knows maybe he ate more between fights this time. GGG was 165 30-days for Rubio:

And this is pretty much the norm. Guys are going to be typically 10 pounds or so above a month out. Just a few examples:

Cloud & Stevenson 186 & 188 30-days

Maidana 158 30-days

etc.

Exactly. Never understood why people don't grasp this. Guys at 168 are going to be 178+ 30-days out, guys at 175 will be 185+, etc etc etc. There are really only a few exceptions - Floyd, Rigo, Pacquiao and a couple others. Basically guys fighting above their "natural weight class" or guys that stay in great shape 24/7, 365.

Stop making sense Natas. Anything Ward fans can do to keep him from Kovalev at 175

[gmc_rfc_06]

As I would expect.

Less than a stone to lose and a full month to do it, he will make the weight easily as he always does.

The only surprise for me is Murray being at 169.
