8 pounds is alot. Who says he'll bring his speed up there? He'll probably bring his power but againest naturally bigger guys they'll be able to take some shots and more. That's like saying 8 pounds is nothing and Bradley can move up to 147 and be as fast and strong as he is in 140 when clearly that isn't the truth. More weight holds you up no matter your frame.
it's eight lbs moving up, not down, dude.
if you're talking about catchweights they are used most commonly to reduce a larger fighter.
we're talking about a big bantamweight with eventual featherweight aspirations any moving up to FW in 12 months
who says he needs to weigh 126 for the weigh in if it's really slowing him down (which it wont.)
he weighed 124 on fight night according to HBO
a little extra weight isnt going to slow his reflexes or his instincts for finding punchers
and if you're going to try and convince me that nonito weighing 128 or 130 on the night of a fight is going to slow him tremendously you are the one without a grasp on the significance of poundage in a top tier p4p fighter in his prime moving up
as for tim bradley he's a small junior welterweight in terms of height and reach, and he's not a puncher in the least.
nonito is a polar opposite
juanma will weigh in the mid 130's
he'll be an inch shorter than donaire
and almost identical in reach
juanma is there to be hit
you do understand that 122 is a weight class created in part to create more champions and thus more revenue?
guy's have been jumping around the scales for as long as they've been scrapping
and the great little guys beat the good slightly larger guys every time
