    What is a weight bully? A fighter that's too big for his weight class and barely makes weight and/or a fighter that is smaller that routinely fights at catch weights or with weight re-hydration clauses in his contract.

            I would say Devin Haney, clearly he’s a welterweight and he acts like fighters owe him a fight. Just move up doe

                  Nobody. No such thing as a weight bully. A term made up by sore losers if their favorite fight lost a fight. The two boxers and their teams agree on a weight they will fight at. If a boxer makes the weight both fighters agreed to then he has bullied Let's say Spence who is often called a weight bully defends his welterweight title and weighs in at 147 or less. he has followed all the rules and bullied nobody. If Spence was really too big for 147 he would only hurt himself by being weight drained. but since he is strong as a bull and KOs most opponents he clearly is not weight drained. Those who say Spence should fight at 154 are not paying attention to fight night weights. Big Jr middleweights like Jermell and Lara weight 8 to 10 pounds more than Spence on fight night. I repeat if a champion makes the class limit he is not a weight bully. if his opponent is too small then he should be fighting in a lighter weight class. You NEVER heard the term weight bully in the days when boxers weighed in on the morning of the fight. Blame a ****** rule change but don't blame the boxers who follow the rules because they have done nothing wrong.

                    Don't forget Hurd and Charlo Twins.

                    Hurd lost because of his.
