Comments Thread For: Spence, Garcia 3-Plus Pounds Apart At IBF's 2nd-Day Weigh-In

[Mushroom]

It won't be water weight. He's going eat two meals. One in the morning (probably right after the morning weigh in) and one in the afternoon. So he should be around 165 by fight time.

Do you know what his fightnight weight has been in his last few fights is that number pure guesswork?

[Ake-Dawg]

Exactly!!


Expect Spence be between 168-165
Garcia 158-155

So he is going to put on 13 pounds of food and water weight in 12 hours? Yet not feel sluggish? 13 pounds...12 hours.

apparently 13 pounds is reasonable with food though.


I don't think people know how big a one pound steak is, especially one pound cooked.

He said he usually comes in around 160-165

Interesting you know these things. So you know Spence was making drastic changes to his diet but Mikey wasn’t. Inside source inside the camps?

No inside source, just common sense. Amazing how that works huh???

Seriously though, Mikey's regular walk around weight is likely to be in the range of 150-155, give or take a few pounds. He added some mass with his new S&C plan, but overall about what he is on the usual basis. It's like Pacquiao, he's not cutting much weight so the day of the fight he's not going to gain more than a few pounds overnight.

Right, I love how people just throw these random numbers like they expect Spence to gain 20 pounds from the weigh in to the actual fight. Most of the weight he was going to gain he already did. This was even worse with Jacobs as some said he went from 160 to 185 in one night lmao.

Spence only worries about delivering punishment!

Garcia too heavy. He will feel that weight from mid rounds on when Spence starts to increase the pace and pressure.

[PoserExposer]

Getting the excuses out now so you don’t claim you’re wrong later. Typical of you. Saludos maricon...

Be nice if Spence didnt try and blowup now and show ppl its not the weight that will beat Mikey. But I dont expect that from him.

If he really believes in his skill he should only gain 2-3 lbs and have someone take a pic to prove it later if he wins.

[Andrij]

This is going to start like Hopkins vs DeLaHoya until Spence decides to run him over.

Yes Mikey couldn't even stop the smaller Lipinets from coming forward. Imagine what Spence will do the entire fight.
