Comments Thread For: 30-Day Weights: Canelo Alvarez 168.2, Daniel Jacobs 175.4

not that he actually does it, but he could just have done a hard boxing workout right before the weighin.
Its possible to lose 7 pounds of sweat during a 2 hour workout, especially 30 days before the fight.

Why would he do this? could be because of mind games, to make him appear smaller than he actually is.

decades ago id sweat out 7 lbs in 2 hours wrestling at bantamweight. its good psych war if hes doin that.

[ceylon mooney]

IBF has a ten pound limit the next day.

not if its a unification. new policy. it was cuz of jacobs/golovkin.

tho the 2 parties/teams can write whatever they want into the contract.

From Ring ****zine: "A same-day weigh-in will be held at 8:00 a.m. the day of the May 4 fight in Las Vegas; neither fighter will be allowed to exceed 170 pounds for the fight contracted at 160 pounds." Since the fight takes place late at night. Danny will have plenty of time to rehydrate. It would have been a real challenge for him if the second-day weigh-in was an hour or two before the fight.

Thanks for the reference with the details. I didn't know that. Much appreciated. Yeah, his team can make sure he rehydrates partially and will have plenty of time to fully rehydrate by fight time. Makes a world of difference.

on fight night he was significantly heavier than josesito lopez when they fought, as well as Cotto, as well as liam Smith. As far as him being only 2-3 pounds heavier than Lara and trout. Where do you get your info from? Vs Lara he was 171 while Lara was 166. Vs trout canelo was even bigger at 172.

You lie canelo was 164 lopez was 165

I'm taking that everyone is looking forward to this fight since people are spending all this time arguing over weigh-in photos.

I think it is because of the meat? Remember, Canelo tested positive for Clentuberol and blamed contaminated Mexican meat.

Remember Canelo weight? He defended the MW title at 155 when 3G was spooky?

I am predicting the upset and got Jacobs winning this fight by way of knockout. He knows what's at stake.

He can't win on the scorecards so he is going to have take some chances. He can't allow Canelo to get comfortable.

He has to jump on Alvarez from the opening bell by making him feel very uneasy in there. He has to remember to throw the uppercut and go to the body.
