Comments Thread For: PBC on NBC Weights From Brooklyn: Quillin Heavy

[MC Hammer]

Another Haymon fighter doesn't make weight. What a joke

What does management have to do with making weight?

[ИATAS]

Probably don't care since they'll be fighting for PBC belts soon.

The sins just keep piling up on Quillin, he's a beacon for bad karma. He better thank his lucky stars if Lee doesn't starch him.

Easy they know how powerful Haymon is and will leverage that power to make sure the fight still goes on. So they say screw it I'm not even going to try and cut the weight Haymon will fix it and I'll have an advantage in the fight. This is now a trend with Haymon fighters not making weight. Not fair to Lee that he has to weaken himself to make weight and his opponent didn't.

All this time away and you don't make weight. Makes no sense. Well Quillin can no longer win the belt.

this is what i was thinking, but commission rules state that he needs to lose the weight or the fight is cancelled?

[Tay Roc]

Lee should refuse to fight.

Doesn't that only happen if he doesn't make weight after the allotted 2 hours? For some reason, I just can't remember that rule.

He has 2 hours. He was 1.5lbs over vs Guerrero for that fight at Barclays as well. Home town fights must make him soft.

Just me and the boys tonight. #rambo #babychocolate pic.twitter.com/ETQFAyRGia

Yes. He still has time.
