Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr. Weighs in at 178, More Confident of Shocking Canelo

[Ray*]

He already looks dried out.

A lot of people don't understand how fighters "cut" weight for the weigh-in, or how much weight they cut?

He just cut 20 lbs. 15 to go.

the number of pounds is not the issue, but it is the fighters bmi body fat percentage. if you dont have any more fat to burn off then the body starts working on all the water out of the muscles. then no more water the muscles and tendons themselves start to break down. leaving the person dry and stiff. lots of muscle cramps and chapped lips. he will be a dried carcass even if he hydrates back within 24hr. still will be lathargic with stamina or endurance.

Cutting 14 pounds is pretty standard to him. Even Canelo cuts & rehydrates around 18 pounds.

So I don't get it...

the chemicals memo has these guys on is not on the banned list and therefore not yet detectable.

Who knows...I have always felt all of boxing in general is on something or the other. Not that hard to get some shh prescribed, the illegal route has always been funny to me when there are so many legal stimulants you can be prescribed and the commission can't do shh about it.

sorry just noticed this quote

Can you give examples of the legal prescribed stims they can't stop?

I know following wada they can't even have caffeine before hand.

Size will play no importance in this fight, skills will and Caneko is infinitely more skilled.

Psychotropic medication can be a stimulate and prescribed by psychiatrists, the issue with Psychotropic medication is that once you are on it you have to be tapered off. Neither Wada nor Vada can legally argue in a court of law to ban use of these medications because there are inherent consequences of quitting them cold turkey. The amount of cyclists, ball players, and so forth on things like adderall is insane. The only requirement is that you bring in doctors paperwork and file a the****utic exemption. Something like adderall to a person who doesn't suffer from a chemical imbalance per se is like doing four lines of ******* without the junkie side effects.

I didn't know that was legal.

It would definitely help with endurance and being able to receive punishment.

football players still piss hot for adderall all the time, surprising since a script is so easy to get.

The argument for it is a chemical imbalance and the dangers to society if treatment is denied.
