Why aren't LHW's calling out Cruiserweight champs? Canelo gotta do errrthang?

I mean, James Toney went from 160 to the moon as did RJJ. I always liked Toney and RJJ too, always will

oh no wait, I'm supposed to hate on them too because of failed tests. I'm always getting influenced to just hate on everything and only worship Al Haymon Enterprises.

Just do what you want

Probably because there's a 30 lb jump there chief

because you're moving up 25 lbs to fight a guy who probably cuts weight to make 200 lbs. some of those cruiserweights are 215 lbs on fight night. usyk is 6'3" tall.


CW also don't make a lot of money. there's a reason why a lot of the guys with the talent to go to CW have just gone to HW. you get an extra zero on your check. think jones, toney, adamek,

If Zurdo and Callum Smith are at 190lbs rehydrated on fight night from 168...

What does a LHW (175) rehydrate to on fight night?

Point is, King Canelo can do as he pleases.

No LHW has enough A-side pull to make Cruisers jump through weight hoops.

True.

The real question is what do cruiserweights hydrate to? See what I mean?

[DuckAdonis]

Because there are enough good guys at 175 to fight. No need for circus acts

CW's are just dieted HW's. It's way too big a jump. The weight categories from MW up need to be redefined IMO.
