    Imagine if nobody cheated on the scales, and everyone fought at their actual weights?

      Same day weigh ins will level the playing field with small men like Canelo and Pacman.

            Maybe his power will come back at 68. Been a while since he really put it on someone.

            His VADA-evading foe does have a sturdy chin though.

              I am sure they'd come in drained af like they did before.

              I read somewhere it was health reasons they switched to day before, some studies were showing that it was better for their health if they had more time to re-hydrate.


              For the life of me, I can't remember the fight that changed this all and it was a big one. The reasons weren't health issues though.

                It was Spinks/Mustapha that got cancelled due to the weigh in causing the weigh ins to start the day before.

                  That's right. Thanks for the reminder. I was thinking it was Spinks but forgot the opponent.

                    All good. I was originally going to say it was Mancini/Kim but I confused myself between this and 15 rounders lol
