    If you watched the vid I just posted Floyd Senior even said he wanted Canelo drained to 150 & he even like Floyd bragged about how Canelo is a straight up & down 1 dimensional fighter who'll be starving from having to make weight & will eat a ton after weigh in which will cause him to be weakened especially to the body.

    I remember the scenario like it happened yesterday too,Floyd after agreeing to the fight decided to use a very old Boxingscene article to force Canelo to 150,& Canelo was very honest & upfront & said he had completely outgrown the ability to make 152,but Floyd made it a take it or leave it offer.

Unless you’re unconscious, medical history doesn’t influence intravenous if it’s just about water. A hospital wouldn’t even waste time admitting a patient if it was about rehydration for just water. The amount of bags in the medical field relate to what’s added in it, not shoes sizes. different size bags serve their purposes for the thousands of combination drugs administered
      There are no vitamins in IV Fluids they must be put in separately, there are a number of different Fluids, Hartmans, Ringers Lactate, Dextrose, Saline , non contain vitamins.

      Im not even reading your entire posts , because I know 750 ml is fck all if it were severe dehydration it would be a bag or more thats like 2000ml or more, I also know that its common and because its Floyd its a big deal but its not really.

And I'm telling you, I've literally done hundreds of these tests and read hundreds of DEXA scan. I'm telling you GGG is about 11-12 percent body fat at the weight in. Canelo is 7-8. That's about a 7lb difference, add a few more for the extra water he's holding and that's where I'm getting this from.
          I know plenty of Kazakhs personally and these guys are big dudes. Their culture are heavy meat eaters. I know you’re trolling with dat username too doe you guys always come out when the discussions are to defend Mr. “168 is easy for me”.

            Would you consider it weightdraining if Canelo forced Benevidez down to 165?(considering him like Canelo was already draining himself to make weight,& unlike Floyd vs Canelo, Canelo would also be giving up height & reach)

              I don't even like GGG if you read the rest of my posts you'd see. Actually, I used to sorta like him but he lost me when he didn't fight Ward. I'm just stating that he's carrying around more bf at the weigh in than Canelo.

                Ffs man I thought nurses blew into a straw instead of the thousands of vile combinations of drugs added to IV bags! Imagine fans thinking that dehydrated fighters only were administered a bag of water.... lol

                  2011 boxingscene link, soon after baby Nelo had fought Hatton at 150lb’s and people were laughing at his attempted shoulder rolls vs Gomez.
                  WBC junior middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (39-0-1, 29KOs) is willing to drop a few pounds to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. (42-0, 26KOs). Mayweather is the World Boxing Council's champion at 147-pounds. Alvarez has no problem facing Mayweather at a catch-weight of 150-pounds.

                  "It's what I want, the Mayweather fight. That's what we put on the table. I feel more mature and for that I am willing to go down to 150 pounds," said Canelo to Sal Rodriguez. "De la Hoya said he was going to pursue the Mayweather fight [for me]. We are ready for it. It's what people want, for me to fight someone like [Mayweather]."
                  Fight happened in late 2013. Ellerbe’s quote.

                  Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe said it was simply the "A-side" fighter getting the upside over the "B-side" fighter. Mayweather usually fights at 147 pounds.

                  "We just took advantage of a situation. It's no different from basketball, football or baseball," he said. "You're always going to put your opposition at a disadvantage, if you can. You break 'em down and you go in for the kill.

                  "The kid suggested a while ago that he would be willing to come down to fight Floyd at 150. So if he put it out there ... this is business at the end of the day, and we're going to hold his feet to the fire, and his manager the same way."

                    OH I agree with you completely,Ellerbe was always very open about not caring about giving Floyd every advantage possible so he would have the odds in his favor.(I think thats fair but it also means the win shouldn't receive the same exact credit as at 154)

                      We shouldn't even have catchweights when we have way too many weight classes. Go back to the original weight classes. 135, 147, 160, 175......
