can't believe this thread is still going

What was interesting about Canelo/Smith was that Canelo didn't have to do any PED tests whatsoever during his camp.

Smith didn't have to do the VADA tests because he was already being tested by UKAD. Canelo used that as excuse to be exempt from VADA too.

So Smith was tested by UKAD, and Canelo wasn't tested by anybody.

did i missed that rule somehow ???

He meant to say that Crawford fighting at 135 and fighting at 153lbs means the boxer outgrew their division, including the then Undisputed venture.

It's not a rule...a simple fact of life. Unless you're using some type of banned diuretic, cutting 20lbs is a detriment to performance not to mention extremely unhealthy.

As a WBC champion, GGG is subject to year round random testing by VADA. He has never been connected with any su****ious PED activity during his entire career, amateur or pro.

Some people can't accept that they are wrong about anything, even when you give them definitive proof that they are wrong.

Others are just trolls trying to be as annoying as possible. It's fun keeping them working hard for their kicks!

Any jmw who rehydrates up to 174lbs has outgrown the division. There's no way someone can cut so much and perform optimally. That extra lb wasn't for nothing. People wanna make out like Canelo weight was "just cuz" and are in denial about the fact that making 154 was becoming too taxing for him. In the rest of the boxing world, fighters just move to the next damn weight class when that happens.

It's not a rule...a simple fact of life. Unless you're using some type of banned diuretic, cutting 20lbs is a detriment to performance not to mention extremely unhealthy.

Those are very logical and objective comments.

But to GGG haters, and Canelo fanboys, logic and objectivity don't come into it. To them, Saul still being a JMW, while fighting at 155 in MW title fights, is an article of faith - like Christ rising from the dead to the Christians, or Muhammad splitting the moon in two to the ******s.

VADA in GGG’s amateur career? Lol. VADA was established by HBO’s Margaret Goodman in 2011. When did GGG win the WBC? What year was that?

BJS is a Welterweight weighing 210lbs.

GGG is 200lbs.

Canelo - working like a boss all year long!

What is the middleweight range?

For a middleweight title fight - any middleweight title fight - they could have weighed up to 160lbs.

a fight scheduled at welterweight which the limit is 147 lbs. and the fighters agree on weighing 144 maximum.

He's only weighed in at 160 a couple of times in his career.

If fighter a weighs in a 159 and the other weighs in at 158½, it is a JMW fight.

It's not a rule...a simple fact of life.

154.1 - 160..... is middleweight

154.1 - 155..... is a catchweight
