Should Pacquiao insist on rehydration clause if Spence fight is made?

      if he were draining himself to make weight would that not hurt him instead of benefit him?? has he ever had issues making weight?

          Change the rules of boxing? Sure, why not. You think the current system is fair? Weight bullies need to move up and fight in classes where they belong, that is the purpose of having weight classes to begin with. Drying out and weight draining three weight classes is criminal and dangerous.
          Huh? Why are you bringing up Floyd here? And how is that situation anywhere comparable to what you are asking for?

          Sorry, having someone weigh in an hour before the fight isn't going to happen. Pacquiao could try to flex his A-side muscles another way, just won't be THAT way.

              Just because a fighter can successfully drain down and then pack on weight night of the fight doesn’t mean it should be allowed. This argument goes all the wya back to when Gatti drained down multiple weight classes and Joey Gamache left the ring on a stretcher. In my opinion, fighters should only be allowed to come into the ring up to the next higher weight class. Not two, three or more weight classes higher.

                  does he make the weight??

                  does he even do a 2nd day weight in??

                  answer that for me

                    Lol at his typical 170 in the ring. Find me where that has ever been proven or stated in a fight where he has to make the WW limit.

                    Ha! Just that easy right? Just weigh in 152 at 8 am? Lol, that is ridiculous and something that won't happen.

                    But I'm still LMAO at you saying if Spence wants the fight, he has to pay the price as if you are part of Team Pacquiao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
