    And what exactly defines a weight bully???
    A weight bully is a fighter who is usually a lot bigger than his opponents, because he is young and can cut more weight (legally or illegally), thus giving him a big size advantage.

    Munguia is moving up, and yet he is facing a junior middleweight, his old weight class.

      When a guy talks about the things he's not here to do, he thinks he doesn't have anything he can do worth talking about. It's like a self fulfilling prophesy, no conviction, a lack of confidence. When Spike lands, like everybody else does, watch the tiger come out of him. I hope.

        So by your own explanation over half the fighters today are weight bullies or been weight bullies??? From Munguia to Jacob's to Chavez JR, Spence, both Charlos, Canelo, Gervonta, Lemeiux and so on right???

          Weight bully is a new term that didn't exist when the scales were in the ring on fight night. A guy who can gain 20 pounds over night is a weight bully, simple.

            If a fighter can cut weight legally then I wouldn't call him a weight-bully. Now if you feel that boxing should go back to same-day weigh-ins then that's a whole different issue, however if a fighter makes weight legally then I don't see a problem, even in the case of a Jaime Munguia or a Jarrett Hurd because size alone doesn't win fights.

              I like the IBF rule where they have to weigh-in again on the morning of the fight and be no more than 10 lbs. over the limit. 20 lbs. is excessive, however I imagine it could also work against you if you gain too much weight.

                wonder if moving up in weight will help his ****ty stamina. for his own good, i hope it does. also, i don't see munguia being a really big puncher (don't be fooled by the sadam ali fight) i think this fight might be better than expected

                    Clown O’Sullivan seems to have learned his lesson from all the ish talking to Lemieux and is now being much more careful and respectful with his mouth.
