    Why isn't Thurman, Spence, and Brook being criticized for being weight bullies

    Crawford gets criticized for coming in on fight night as a middle weight but I don't hear anyone calling Spence, Thurman, and Brook weight bullies when they come in on fight night weighing in as Super Middleweight. Exactly why is this?

      Crawford weighed 152 agaisnt Gamboa... 20lb variance

      McGregor could sport 28lb drainage in his Featherweight masquerades

          Thurman is no weight bully. The guy isn't that big.

              Thurman weighed 162 against Guerrero and that was in 2015. Do you think he's gotten smaller in two years?

                Because those are the rules. I would do the same thing if I was a Boxer. Get any legal advantage u can get!

                  Thurman's size is deceiving. Danny Garcia is even bigger than Keith. Thurman is about the same size as Matthysse. He won't even tower against Pacquiao.

                    Keith Thurman is not a weight bully. He is a small welterweight.
