So Bob Arum was going to sacrifice Gradovich, a small featherweight, to the much bigger Walters at 130, but thankfully he has a good manager in Egis Klimas who looks out for his best interests.

Gradovich will do well at super bantamweight.

Wonder what the weird requests were

130 lbs to start with. Walters will never make 126 again, but he likes fighting smaller guys. Walters is looking kind of weak picking on smaller fighters. He needs to step up, quit acting like Baby Huey.

Discretion being the better part of valor, or good choice Bob.

I highly doubt Gradovich can make 122. If somehow he manages to make weight, he's gonna be a huge super bantamweight because he reportedly rehydrates up to 140-143 on fight night.

Match him up with Rigo then & let's see action!!.........

and as u say that about walter...the bum u're trying to save is trying to drop to 122 after rehydrating close to 140 when getting ****** by selby...

to say never make again after being 1lb over after a year layoff and sickness is just a stretch...more than likely u are a lomo protector as well

he's full of poo...this dude prolly aint fightin in any more big fights unless they make him lomo bait..

selby took a fight away from lomo/tr when he kicked his behind while lomo never wanted to make the fight quick enough...

Bob probably wanted his soul. It was probably one of those hidden clause type agreememnts or maybe just fishy language
