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

[Larry the boss]

He's talking about a 152 pound rehydration clause for Spence the morning of the fight.

are you trying to kill Spence?

If Spence is going to have to come down to 145 for a Pacquiao payday. That’s what I’d advise for taking on a weight bully.

[KTFOKING]

Pretty much lol.

152 rehydration clause is what he proposed...And Ghost said Pacquiao should do something unprecedented and ask Spence to come in at or lower than 157 AN HOUR BEFORE THE FIGHT. Hilarious....both comments.

you mean 145??? like Manny did with Cotto? and 152 is better then 150 like Manny did with Margo

It’s gonna cost spents to get a career defining fight with Pac. Pac don’t need him.

*younger star is what was said.....Which he is just that.

If he wants the fight, he has to pay the price? According to who? You? LMAO, settle down there.

Let's see how this plays out. Pacquiao will be the A-side and could ask for certain things, but no one knows what he will ask for, if anything. More than anything, I'm sure he will ask for a higher guarantee than what he has been getting.

152 at 8am then he can go eat a steak breakfast. He’s still gonna weigh his typical 165-170 in the ring but it’s the way he has to put it back on that would play onto pacs hands

Or 152 for Canelo or 144 for Marquez. More good examples.

He can't use no ten pounds an hour prior to the fight. Please find me one example of that EVER being agreed upon. You can have morning rehydration clauses but that is about it.

I'm willing to bet majority of the WWs enter the ring over 155 pounds.

Are you now trying to change the rules of boxing or something? So if you fight at 118, you can't be more than 122 for a fight?

If you could make weight for that particular weight class, then you are good to go. There are disadvantages of trying to kill yourself to make weight. It could impact your ability to take a punch or your stamina in the late rounds.

Pacquiao could ask for a ten pound rehydration clause if he wants and that may get accepted.

Find me one example outside of Floyd where a fighter was granted a TUE exception three weeks after using an illegal IV. Anything is possible in boxing for the right price.

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.

You’re talking catchweights, different subject. But do you really think fighters should be allowed to drain down five weight classes to make weight and then rehydrate twenty or more pounds? Why have weight classes then?

Kill Spence? No, he can just fight at 154 or 160 where he belongs.

Spence doesnt need him either
