Lol, Omar posted him training a few days ago and said 140 is no problem. 141.2 lb is ok considering it's not a title fight and comissions generally give you a pound unless a there's a MAX weight defined in the contract. But it still sucks, he should do his job. I think Figueroa is one of these fighters who badly lose non-functional body weight and have to cut a lot because of this.

A lot of Mexican fighters cut down to ridiculously low weights. Omar probably walks around at 170, Brandon Rios walks around at 180, Margarito was at 180's as well, Morales would balloon to the 170s or 180s and he fought at 130, Chavez Jr walks around at 230 pounds yet cries about being the smaller guy against Fonfara.
Juan manuel Marquez and Marco Barrera were some of the few who didn't balloon up in weight or cut drastically to gain an advantage.Comment

First of all he's not my idiot he's the Mexican fans idiot. Second you're (correct grammar) not looking at the bigger picture. In the long run sucky arse Omar will still get more payouts and gifts. The payout didn't help Burns in the fight.Comment

I'm posting on my cell so what? And what "deal" do you get were you have to pay 30% of you're purse for missing weight. that penalty is everywhere, it's not a handout to Figueroa. It's ok you don't like Mexican fighters but don't go posting lies.Comment
