So, I walked into my gym tonight...

i think 5 pounds should be a piece of piss really if u contribute enough to making that weight but as far as fightin fitness then i guess its down to hunger and devotion. i personally would take the fight cos hey a fights a fight but thats just me if ur a little thrown off n like wtf n u think ur prob not ready then clearly the hunger isnt there either cos hunger comes with a ready mind i spose so id prob ask to delay the fight.

[kenny91]

however as far as physical readiness is concerned, well that could be an issue from wat uve said able not runnin for a while etc etc so best bet is to still fight the guy if its a fight handed to u on a plate but ask for it to be delayed

go fight!!

5lbs? thats 2 kg's and either way...the old men at your bout are gunna allow that to sway.

You're either a fighter, or you're not.

[aussieboxer2320]

fight him, even if you dont put on the 5 lbs they will still prob let u fight. just eat plenty, not too much junk and get your mind into the zone, however if you have mixed emotions or you arent psychologically ready for the bout, then its not a wise decision to fight

Thanks everyone for ya contributions. There is a lot of mixed feeling about this. I am gonna see how I feel tonight sparring or training and then decide. Micky I think your right they would let it sway at 5lbs.

If I do it I will most lily get overpowered by the weight but I would be quicker, not realy fitter though. ah...decisions.

I'm always comin in over weight. But because i'm short they often say "fair enough it'll be ok".

[P4PKING_2008]

I decided against the bout tonight, but I am leaving in 15minutes to set off. Gonna go down and get weighed and **** and if I get lucky someone else my weight will do the same and I could have a fight. Wish me luck haha.

They still might let you fight.

Eeh... i'm in the same boat. I'm scheduled to fight next friday at 78kg. But i'm 79.5kg. Gonna have to get with some roadwork and get on a diet.
