How much heavier is the average pro fighter at his walking around weight?
I know fighters differ in this, ie some fighters like Floyd are a lot more disciplined and don't gain much weight when they're not fighting.... But as an estimate for the average non heavyweight fighter... from say welterweight up to light heavyweight... how much more do you reckon they weigh in comparison to their weight division?

LytHvy 175........... 190--95lbs
Middle..160............180--83lbs
welter 147 ...........160--62lbs
light 135.......146--50lbs
these are averages from my days when alot of the weighins also occured the morning of the fight not the BS we deal with today! Ray -

This, at the same time all of those guys are actually heavier then their 'walking around'/in between comp weights. For instance a guy who walks around at 165 in between fights would probably be 180+ if fighting was out of the question and they just 'let themselves go'. They are just much bigger guys.Originally posted by Ray Corso View PostComment

If you realize that our greatest weight percentage is "water" (96%)?? than its kind of easy to figure out. Other than differences of bone density and frame size we're WATER based! Some guys need more fluids than others when in a physical endeavor! I've weighed in alot boys to men and my guess on weights is very accurate from all of the matchmaking weighins I've missed at tourneys. I can eye up people to this day and be damn close to their weight!
Its like knowing when three minutes is getting to the end or one minute in between rounds. Boxings clock exsists around 3 & 1 minute intervals! Ray.Comment
