Does HBO just guess the fight night weights?

Post the rules then. It pretty much looks like you're just lying.

The rules are in the IBF site. http://www.ibfusbaregistration.com/i...ntestRules.pdf

Looks like you are right for the elimination bout 2nd weigh in.

Now you need to show that Ward weighed 186 for the 2nd day weigh in for your claim HBO showed that weight.

I wasn't lying bro. I read hours before the fight that Ward was at 186. You know I pay a lot of attention to the weights. Anyway I can be wrong, if I'm wrong it's in good faith. I'm waiting for the IBF to answer my e-mail.

According to Laced Up they do. I thought they were weights from fighters stepping on HBO scales and they didn't show fight night weights of fighters that didn't? Laced up seems to think they just guess them.

fight night weighins should become official or else be eliminated, really no need for them if one fighter doesnt and others dont, and even if they all do it, we dont even know if the weights have been altered by the network, a lot of BS needs to be changed...

In Molina's fight with Ruslan he exposed how Showtime does it. Basically the interviewer asked him about his weight and quoted the unofficial weight Showtime listed in the tale of the tape. And Molina flat out said that weight is bogus no way I weigh that much you guys had me step on a scale with shoes and all my clothes on, I had my wallet, phone, keys in my jeans. I think these networks either flat out make up the weights or have them step on a scale but there is no consistency or accuracy if guys are weighed with full clothes 5 mins after they get to the arena.

But idiots around here swear by these unofficial bogus weights when it suits their arguments and ignore them when they don't.

They have mentioned it before i forget what fight but lampley mentions they het on the scale fully clothed

They need to be official. An official fight night weight. With fighters in the same conditions they were in the weigh in.

TV station graphics of unofficial weights are the 'compubox' of 2016.
Use them if it fits your agenda, ignore them if it doesn't.

On any given fight, one guy can refuse to give a weight and the other guy can be weighed fully clothed wit full pockets. Pretty pointless when it's done that way.

This idiot thinks HBO asks a fighter to step on a scale just before he steps in the ring

[Bullrider]

Yeah. It's clearly just a guess. Or whatever the fighter told them. We all know that the moment they enter the building where they're going to fight, the camera people will start following them around. If you have seen a clip where they're being weighed before the fight starts then show me.

i agree with you, but until then is really pointless to debate fight night weights cuz either we are guessing or even the network can provide altered weights...
