Golovkin-LemieuxOf course it's possible. But think about it. If you are losing weight yourself and you're dropping weight consistently, adjusting your body to the weightloss over a period of time etc. How much would it take for you to gain 10 lbs in one day? That's near impossible, unless he had an extremely hard time cutting the last 4 lbs and it was a reaction to that final weight cut.
In today's boxing we have a few boxers like Canelo who gain extreme weight in one day, but people forget it is very unnatural for the body to gain that kind of weight in such a short space of time - If of course you are losing the weight properly, which by all accounts it seems like GGG is.
30 day weigh in = 165
Weigh in = 159.4
Morning of the fight = 168.6
HBO scales night of the fight = 170
Near impossible he says.
Laced Up doesn't understand cutting water weight and that Lil G obviously does it for the 30 day weigh in.Last edited by Robbie Barrett; 07-13-2016, 01:15 AM.Comment

In boxing, it happens a lot. In fact, it's happens to most of those who move up one or divisions in at least one point or another in their careers. Mayweather is the only person I can think of who it didn't happen to. But many fighters gain 7-10 pounds after a weigh-in. Wouldn't surprise me to see a longtime middleweight like GGG in that range or even slightly higher.Of course it's possible. But think about it.

Anyone that knows weight cutting knows Golovkin does the same as every other fighter just not as much as some. He dehydrates to 160 and then goes back up to his fighting weight which is around 170.Comment
