Do boxers lie about how much they rehydrate to?

Look at what Joshua Clottey said on Facebook (this is actually him btw, Asian Sensation confirmed it):

I take that fight in short notice 1month so it was very hard for me to make the weight and on the day of the weigh i weigh 9pounds over so i have only 2hours to make 147 so after i make it the food, drinks and anything just go to my stomach easy so the day of the fight i weigh 175 but i told the person who weigh me to make it 170 pls are u people happy now and its pass so lets forget it cos its remind me of Corrales R.I.P

That's almost two stone. I'm not sure if I can believe it...?

No wait, is two stone...! He came in **** on lightheavy? That's some serious hydrating.

Williams once came in at 164... but 175 is something else.

[warp1432]

I know. How does someone gain about 30 pounds over night?! That's insane.

[PlasticFlamingo]

No way. Maybe 165, but 175?

[krispy kreme]

I still don't understand how their bodies can rehydrate so much. I mean 30 lbs overnight is just crazy.

[Xyei]

Hmmmm... They both weighed 149 for that fight. Even still, LHW fighting at WW?? is right...

[warp1432]

Diego Corrales went up to 160 too, but 175 is just crazy.

[Pullcounter]

clottey doesnt look 175 in the ring though, but who know for sure

[Burner]

Naw its true....

Clottey and Berto do that ****...they always way close to 170.

[MANGLER]

It's odd that they'd bluff about it, but 30 lbs in less than 24 hrs is ****in ridiculous.
