      He fought at somewhere between 57Kg and 61 Kg in the WSB, and was still fighting at 126 (57Kg) at age 21 without rehydration before they scrapped the ammy Fetherweight division is all we know. All that tells us is that he probably couldn't sustain 123.5 (56Kg) by age 21/22.

      And all we got to go on for his weights in the pro ranks - except for your hunches of course - suggest that he is indeed on the small side for a LW after rehydration, as looks pretty obvious in the ring to my eye. A 'tiny' lightweight? I don't recall anyone saying that, but he's smallish and it seems he likely doesn't rehydrate nearly as much as many of his opponents at 135.

      Kinda think you're reaching with this one man. It's OK if you don't think he's as good as folk are saying, man. You don't need to create reasons to justify it.

        Yeah Rolls was the more lucrative decision in the long term. There is no guarantee Golovkin would have beat or not suffer an injury against one of the top 168 pound fighters on short notice. At least he recovered the cost of his training camp for the failed Canelo fight It was the right decision given the limited purse and timing of the Canelo fight.
