    That was a 35 year old shell trying to cut down to a weight that he hadn't made in almost eight years.

        Stiverne claims he over trained against Wilder.

            Some very surprising twists in Las Vegas. Former super featherweight champion and current lightweight contender, Edwin Valero (24-0, 24KOs), claims that he busted up Oscar De La Hoya during their sparring session in Big Bear, California. Valero was brought in as a sparring partner to help De La Hoya prepare for Manny Pacquiao. Valero almost lashed out at De La Hoya while speaking to the Philippine Daily Inquirer, claiming that Oscar lied about who gave him a black eye, lied about his level of training and even predicted a knockout win for Pacquiao.


            Edwin Valero said it, check out the link.

            Oscar didn't overtrain, he wanted an easy fight and thought his size would demolish Pacquiao.

                  Margarito vs Mosley, margarito weighed in at a 145 very manny esqe....i felt the the vigorous training regimen had him out there looking lethargic, more so than the plaster issue....

                      I dont think there's a real way for us to know this. Only the fighters know that stuff for sure.
