these guys are being utterly ridiculous
way back when Canelo was campaigning at welter, he came in weighing 150..... for multiple consecutive fights
the fact that these guys were not even aware of that..... is utterly ridiculous
why comment on something you know nothing about ???
Reynoso explained why..... he said that making weight is difficult, so they come in at 150 to preserve Saul's career..... they will only make weight for big fights
I don't like it, but that is how it is..... THAT is the reason why Canelo fought at 150 when he was a welter, and why he fought at 155 when he was a JMW
at JMW..... it was ONE FKN POUND
assuming that he could not drop that 1 pound, was silly..... but calling him a middleweight AFTER he dropped that pound for Smith..... is utter ******ity
these guys are being ridiculous
and I know why.....

what other middleweight weighs 155..... name one ?
if 155 is middleweight, then why did Golovkin refuse to fight Canelo at "middleweight"?..... oh, right..... because 155 is not middleweight, 160 is
" middleweight is 160.... this is boxing " ~ Gennady Golovkin
who cares how fkn hard it is ?
making weight is harder for some than for others..... but making weight is hard for EVERYONE lol
what a ridiculous assessment
do you want to have a go at these questions, seeing that your butt-buddies have left the room?
155-160lbs = middleweight division.
Ggg fighting Canelo at mw would not stop him from weighing in at the 160lb limit...I think what you're asking is why ggg didn't fight the lineal mw champion at a catch weight of 155lbs. All of this is irrelevant now, cuz it appears Canelo is now fighting at mw.

Originally posted by john l View PostWell ask ANY fighter what they hate most about sport and they will ALL say MAKIN WEIGHT.But the fact that he made it after fightin above(very slightly)makes me think it was not REAL HARD.But obv I'm not in his camp and have no inside info and he did put on a good deal after weigh in but it did not hurt his performance.So really just could have saved a lot of words and said I HAVE NO ***EN IDEA HOW HARD IT WAS.But like I said the fact he made it AFTER fightin above and it not affecting his performance my guess would be not too bad.

Originally posted by considerthis View PostYea...who knows. It could very well have affected his performance to a degree he could feel and making 154 could have been taxing. Cutting a lb when there's not much left to cut is no joke. He's no longer at 154...that much we know.

their argument is..... 154.1 - 160 is middleweight
well, a fighter who weighs 154.1 is OBVIOUSLY not a middleweight..... and neither is one who weighs-in at 155

that is one question, but the main question is this.....
Q. calling a fighter who weighs 155 a genuine middleweight, is a HUGE stretch, and being more than a bit silly..... so how the fk is it possible for an intelligent man to continue calling Canelo a middleweight AFTER he weighed in at 154 for Smith?
A. an intelligent man, simply could not..... but as for excuse-making muppets?..... they can do anything
