Curtis Stevens stepped on the IBF scale, if my memory is right, at 167 the morning of the fight.
To here y'all tell it, Jacobs walked into the fight Kovalev's size or some ****.

The notion that Jacobs put on anything like 25lbs (when Golovkin, himself, likely put on near 15lbs himself) in 36 hours is silly.

Originally posted by GhostofDempsey View PostYou can see the size disparity with your eyes. Look at them during the weigh in, then look at Jacobs during the fight after he re-hydrated. That extra 15-20 pounds makes a difference, just ask Joey Gamache and countless other fighters who were KTFO by blown up fighters who went up two or more weight classes on day of the fight.
You're saying that, in 36 hours, Daniel Jacobs was able to add on 30lbs and not have that weight affect the way he fought. gtfoh

No he didn't, i'm tired of people exaggerating fight night weights like when people call Canelo a cruiserweight and Crawford against Gamboa a junior middleweight lol it's just ******.
Don't get me wrong Jacobs is a huge middleweight but no light heavyweight is making 160, it's pretty simple.

Originally posted by Scipio2009 View PostDo you honestly believe that Jacobs outweighed Golovkin by 15-20lbs on fight night, seeing that Golovkin already added 10lbs by Saturday morning (with another handful of pounds with breakfast/lunch/dinner before the fight)?
