Now these lil putitos here ****ting their pants all shook cause julio made weight.

[Motorcity Cobra]

Lol yeah but without memo maybe Chavez doesn't make weight and the fight is called off.

With that $1 mil per lb penalty he would've made it. But he would've had a harder time making it. I'm happy there's a fight.

Chavez has been so light for so long his team said he was 169 with like 2 weeks to go and was 165 yesterday. Draining yourself for that long kills muscle mass which doesn't recover. So how much can he rehydrate? Oscar came in lighter then he needed for pacquioa and they bragged about him being at 147 two weeks before the fight. After easily making weight he couldn't rehydrate the next day. The key is not so much how he looks today but what he looks like tomorrow.

Very true, but he does have the best strength and conditioning team in the business working with him. They're so good, mayweather had to **** with it lol might not be a bad time to spread some light cash on Jr. just in case. He's tough, if healthy.

I'm a little surprised that Canelo weighed in at 164. I thought he would weigh in anywhere between 160 to 162, max.

I am. But I also do side bet. And Chavez odds are too good to pass up.

Absolutely. I got Chavez ko at 11/1. The £100 I've bet is just winnings from another bet anyway so if I lose then it doesn't matter. I don't really do big bets anyway, just ones like this to add a bit of excitement into the mix. Worth a little punt to win £1100

Heredia also said he expects Alvarez to weigh 166 or 167 pounds when the bout begins.

What? That's not what he said. He said he expects Canelo at 182 or 183. He hasn't rehydrated to 166 since he was 20 years old.

... Canelo just drank about 0.5 gallon of juice after the weigh in...

I'm a little surprised that Canelo weighed in at 164. I thought he would weigh in anywhere between 160 to 162, max.

... and immediately started to "rehydrate"...

This is great! Canelo looks like an absolute tank of a fighter AND Jr looks fairly good compared to his usual standards. I was certain he would be a dead man walking in this fight. Should be a fun one while it lasts! Surprised there aren't more pictures up on this site since they are literally all over every other place I've visited.

Oscar and Bhop look a little shocked!
