Comments Thread For: Gennady Golovkin 167.8, Kell Brook 168 - IBF's Fight Day Weighin

[frantic fighter]

GGG is 75% Russian (and he has a North Korean grandmother).

I would say that it's more than 25%, remember most Russians have Asian ancestry just because of proximity. Also his twin brother looks full Korean,besides it doesn't matter if it was 10%,it still affects his genetics.

He does not cut 20-22 pounds. He'll probably be around 170 as usual

So,you expect him only to gain two more pounds throughout the day. I have some prime land in Idaho I'd like to sell you...😏

I totally forgot about IBF Re-Hydration Rules I think it is great by the IBF to assure that guys don't re-hydrate more that 10 pounds I think it is

That's par for the course. He was ibf 168.5, and 170 on Hbo scales for Lemieux. Similar vs Wade. According to your theory, should we expect Brook at 180?

You said in the beginning that he had rehydrated to his lowest weight in years,now you're saying that its going to be around the same as usual. We'll have to wait an see what Sky's scales say tonight. I don't trust HBO.

Yeah, that's not what really happens. They do an early morning check,afterwards the guys are free to pack on as much as they want.

yeah true but I don't think guys are going to stuff the face the day of the fight and end up like Joshua Clottey and have the "Runs" during the fight

I think guys can still safely make their way 15 plus over the weight, if they chose to. You have to think,they're giving them 10 lbs by the next morning at let's say 5:30,meaning they usually have 15 plus hours to put on additional weight.

When Golovkin starts rehydrating into the 180's like Peter Quillin did vs Zerafa or Geale did vs Cotto, then you can say he's too big for MW.
