Floyd Mayweather Sr. talking abt how DRAINED Canelo was at 152lbs

[fanofslug]

Not only drained, he was weakened. He had to lose muscle mass. He only weighed 165 on fight night when he usually fights at 170+ so yeah he lost some pounds of muscle to make weight

Not true and Mayweather Sr. resents his son. This isn't surprising at all. Grow up.

Not true? very true. He weighed 172 against trout months before, and 165 against mayweather. He had to lose muscle.

Just like Cotto eh and every other CWeighted guy in history !

Give it a rest the hate in here is stinking the joint out .

[mathed]

That doesn't mean it was all muscle Where can I buy one of those scales that only weight muscle. You're a ****in idiot

So when he weighed 172 against Trout and weighed in at 153.5 or whatever, maybe he lost about as much water weight as he possibly could to make that weight.

Against Floyd when he weighed 165 and weighed in a 152, maybe he knew ahead of time that there would be no way for him to make 152 based solely on water weight losses.

Maybe he and his team decided to change his diet (as I remember it, they said as much, said that he had to eat tons of fish on a very strict diet to make weight) and incorporate much more cardio to shred some muscle weight thinking it would not only allow him to make weight but also help him be quicker in the ring.

Losing a pound of water when you are already tapped out is not an easy thing. A pound of water is about a pint speaking volumetrically, which might as well be an ocean if you are already at your body's limit.

Absolutely common sense. I think anyone would have guessed it, except fl0mos. Good explanation but he/she'll come back trolling, as they always do :/

1ml of water weighs 1 gram , about 450 ml is a pound , 1 pint is about 560 ml

Fighters at top level mostly dont fight fat and are generally drying out their water reserves already to make a weight they are used too , so the only way they can cut down more is by losing muscle mass .

But you also have a line were you are not as strong but you are still sharp and your resilience is still there , go a little further and you are flat as a tack no snap no resilience no speed , the thing with Canelo was he never tired was snappy for him and moved freely the whole fight , look at Oscar and Dawson its easy to see the difference when they are severely weight effected , Canelo wasnt in the red zone like those other guys .

You don't know what was Floyd fight night weight that night... or what was against Pacquiao, etc. He hides it for a reason. And Canelo is not the only one doing it, they all rehydrate after weigh in.

What I really think is that Canelo is a weight cheater that wins because he's too heavy. But it's not his fault, it's because they need to bring back the same day weight in as it was before.

I agree, overall Mayweather isn't an innocent victim (See Marqez for example). That said, Canelo uses his weight advantage on a routine basis and routinely has an unfair advantage against most of his opponents....Mayweather wasn't the bigger man very often during his career.

My point is that I don't feel bad for Canelo because Mayweather wouldn't allow him all of the advantages.

Flashback to 2012, Floyd Sr explains how Canelo will be drained on fight night at 152lbs. Do you think Amir Khan should have asked for a catchweight like Floyd? #boxing #caneloalvarez #canelokhan #amirkhan #floydmayweather #floydsr #floydmoneymayweather #mexico #england

Canelo was dehydrated, drained, and weak against Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Khan is fighting a live Canelo at Canelo's weight. This is the Canelo that just ravaged through Kirkland and Cotto.

Lol what type of BS propaganda is this!?!

[Rath]

That 1 lb killed Canelo. Never knew going from 153 to 152 in five months time could do so much damage. It affected him so much he threw more punches the second half of the fight than the first.

hope that is what you think about Cotto vs Pac.

[Hype job]

whats done is done but lets be honest here kick all that fan boy shit out the window. If Mayweather could have beat canelo at 154 he would have like he did Cotto. Simple.
