And it looks worse since Canelo has been using his size to beat up smaller guys his entire career, but the minute it looks like he might not have an overwhelming weight advantage he starts putting all these clauses in the contract.

    Blah blah excuse blah blah hypocrite. Blah blah blah....

      If he's a weight bully then he is doing it wrong as he has never missed weight and also holds the IBF strap that makes you weigh in again on fight day and you can't be more than 10 pounds over the welterweight limit. All the while draining himself and it not affecting his in ring performance. Somebody inform Spence he's doing this "weight bully" thing wrong please

          Chavez did this and got criticized for it and rightfully so. Both like to fight in Texas and neither likes VADA. (just saying )

          There should be a hydration clause, imo, of about 6-8%. Boxing should be about boxing, not about who can rehydrate and dehydrate the best. Fighters facing each other should be roughly the same size.

            Why is Errol Spence being called weight bully? I notice this everywhere in social medias, in youtube, in forums, everywhere.

            Is it because he is a huge man being able to squeeze his body into 147 lbs or is it because he can make 147 lbs but in the fight night he has an option to blow up against his opponent?

            In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with this, this is great advantage he could use. Not everyone has that ability to squeeze that huge body into a smaller weight and then have an option to blow up in fight night if he so chooses to. That right there is a great weapon.

                This is non sense. If he can make weight he can make weight dummy

                Bully if he forces opponents to catch weights ect. Or continues to fight little guys like Mikey which I’m sure what your trying to indicate

                  Exactly, which means Jeff Horn was a pure WW when he pulled off what Thurman failed to do.

                    Manny Pacquiao makes the welterweight division that much more exciting. Now all of these young cats would rather fight him than each other. All of them are standing in line now looking for the Manny Pacquiao sweepstakes.
