    It is time for boxing to say if you don't make weight you the fight is off you lost your purse. I can't stand it when a fighter makes weight and then is allowed to fight.

        I agree but the problem is the TV people who end up losing out.

          I agree we lose as fans but there are unethical fighters and managers that take advantage of it. It just is not right. Don't they give them a pound allowance anyway?

              Canelo cannot afford much more disgrace. He better make the contracted weight.
