[Shadoww702]

Arum said the kid almost died & hes very concerned about his health but we are trying to reschedule for September... smh!

Wow! Ppl need to read Bob's statement a lil slower. SMH... 8 weeks to recover, train, and be ready?? *** it just give him a ******* and a bottle of Scotch now then.

Pednelo was MONTHS out not days.

if you keep the weight low leading into your training camp, wouldn't that make it easier to make weight??

[BoxingTech718]

Boxing would change drastically if fighters could no longer attain huge weight advantages by cutting weight.
I for one would welcome it. I want to see the person with the best skills and heart win.
Not the most size advantage.

Agreed, time to expose the weight bullies!

Nice list . I'd add Rey Vargas and Howard Easter Jr. to it .
But Munguia ?
I think he looked huge against Ali because Sadam was really a Welterweight. Cotto ( who Ali beat for the 154 lbs. title ) himself was small at Junior Middle .

Should've just let Ramirez face Prograis in the first place! This is marinating gone wrong! Ramirez vs. Hooker in a unification bout! Make It Happen!

Holy **** he looks like a cancer patient.
I agree with Arum it should have never come down to this.

[PunchyPotorff]

I rarely side with Arum, but this time I'll make the exception. It's funny though, how many fans call severe dehydration a duck. When most of us have had dehydration on some level, and we know the weakness, lack of flexibility etc. And also, I don't think fighters in general pay as close attention to dehydration as they should. The focus is to grind hard in camp, and with that sometimes fighters don't listen to their bodies very well. Hopefully O'Connor comes out of this okay and can do a tune up fight in the fall.

Then why don’t you match him up against a better opponent and stop with these mismatches
