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

[KTFOKING]

You guys make me laugh. You think it’s actually ok for fighters to enter the ring twenty pounds heavier than their opponent as welters. Unless of course they are fighting Floyd, then they must meet very unique demands, while he is granted an exception for illegal IV three weeks later. Perfectly normal.

YOU make me laugh in thinking you can have an agreement where the opponent weighs in an hour before the fight. YOU make me laugh in thinking Spence will be 20 pounds heavier than Pacquiao fight night. Please explain to me how Spence weighs in at 157 or lower every morning of the fight, and then gains an additional 10-13 pounds in the next 12 hours? I'll wait.......And I'm guessing I will be waiting a LONG time since you won't be able to show any proof that he comes in at 167-170 in the ring.

If you are THAT worried about Pacquiao, then just hope the fight doesn't happen. No one is forcing Pacquiao to take the fight. He's done more than enough in the game that he could hang them up or take on an easier touch next time out. But get out of here trying to make up BS claims and BS stipulations that will never happen.

The guy you were responding to wants a 10 pound rehydration clause an hour before the fight.

No, the IBF changed their rules. For unification bouts, the 10 pound rehydration clause doesn't apply anymore. So for Spence vs Porter which is a unification bout, neither fighter has to abide by the IBF rules as there will be no morning weigh in.

Yeah whoever suggest that is insane, errol could die from punches swelling his brain if he doesn't get enough fluids in.

He would have to restrict his meals and fluids for up to an hour before the fight lol wtf? Dudes brain would have no fluid.

The ibf second day weigh in is at like 7 or 8 am.

Yep, they have their weigh ins at 8 am. And there is a reason for that.

Also, just found out he weighed in at 155.5 pounds against Mikey in the 2nd day weigh in. So there is absolutely NO way in hell he was 167-170 12 hours later in the ring.

Yet Spence avoids the question of his weight entering the ring. Gives a half hearted answer and refuses to reveal his walk around weight.

Duh..

Why would manny try to take a risk..

So now that we have the data to show Spence weighed in at 155.5 at 8 am the day of the Mikey Garcia fight, how many pounds do you think he gained in the next 12 hours before he entered the ring?

[thabanga510]

Nope no kind of stipulations. Fight head up and may the best man win.

he wont be 170 but he was probably 162 on fight night.

[KTFOKING]

160-162 is A LOT more realistic than thinking he is going to come in at 167-170.

I don't understand how people think the man magically goes from 155.5 pounds at 8 am to 170 pounds within 12 hours.

Not counting food, its all water 15lbs of water is about 6ltrs or a gallon and 1/2 , its possible but its a lot of gain in 12hrs that could only be done with IV if you want it in the system not the gut and thats a IV bag every 2hrs.

People in here have some very skewed ideas of weight in fighters, the vast majority of full blown WWs that hit 147 weigh-in will be 158-165 on fight night. The bigger guys will dry out more to make weight so the smaller guys might weigh-in the same or near but they didnt dry out so wont gain much at all come fight night.
