Surprised now one talks about the rehydration clause that Mayweather had with Canelo

[HanzGruber]

Someone needs to take away ops thread making ability. He makes up shlt in his head

[Robbie Barrett]

The fight night weights were shown for Mayweather-Canelo. Go find them instead of exposing yourselves as people that don't know wtf you're talking about.

[gmc_rfc_06]

I do admit Canelo looked like **** at the weight, he looked totally drawn.

However, it didn't change the outcome. Mayweather was a special fighter, just too fast, too sharp and too technically sound, he's one of the absolute best fighters ever.

[FrankieBruno]

Even at this point I still don't understand why Oscar put kid Canelo in front of Floyd... at 152 and with a rehydration clause...

it was the coke mate..the coke

[BigZigga]

Never heard anything about a rehydration clause

[HandsofIron]

Canelo was dried out like a sponge, he was completely delirious from the massive weight cut that he was forced to sit down after the weigh in.

Canelo lost that fight the moment he stepped on the scales. The dumb casuals won't ever understand this and the fanboys will defend their hero to no end/in denial.

But that's why guys like Duran and Leonard will always be superior to Floyd. They both moved up and fought beasts out of their natural weight class and without any unfair stipulations, i.e. catchweights, rehydration clauses etc...

[HeroBando]

Wow, holy bull**** Batman.

I don't know how good your maths is but Canelo fought at 151 two years prior to the Mayweather bout and weighed in at 153.5 for his last fight prior to the Mayweather fight.

Extra padded gloves? Also baseless.

As for the rehydration cllause, that's baseless and he weighed in unofficially at 167 lbs so that ends your "probably 162" theory.

It was 165

[IronDanHamza]

It was 165

Right, I got mixed up with his 30 day weigh in where he was 167.

And he was 164 and 167 against Looez and Mosley.

[Luilun]

Canelo and his team were made to sign a nondisclosure treatment, preventing them from letting the public know about the rehydration clause that Mayweather put in place.

Put it into prespective the differences between the Floyd v Canelo & Canelo v Khan fights.

Floyd vs Canelo

-Extra Padded Grant Boxing Gloves,
-Drained to 152lbs, when Canelo hadn't fought below 154lbs 4 years prior to their bout.
-Rehydration clause (Probably didn't allow Canelo to hydrate over 160/162lbs)

Canelo vs Khan

-Everlast MX Punchers Gloves
-Canelo fights at his stipulated weight of 155lbs
-No Rehydration clause allowing Canelo rehydrate to over 175lbs

To put things into perspective, look at how different Canelo looks in the two weigh ins. That is not just the effect of a 3lb reduction, but also the rehydration clause.





Khan fought a completely different animal to the one Floyd faced. But either way, Floyd would never have got caught with that shot that landed on Khan, which is why Khan is B rated fighter, and Floyd is an ATG.

But chill out with giving Floyd any respect for beating a pre prime, heavily drained, puny Canelo!

Very true and if Canelo weighed what he did with Khan Mayweather would have been Khanned himself

[Luilun]

Canelo's fight night weight was 160 i believe

against Khan it was around 175 +

also there was no weight draining

Floyd fought a corpse, a zombie from the michael jackson thriller video

people can deny this as much as they want, anyone who respects floyd for that win is absolute dirt

You can never make a person who has an IQ of a doorknob understand catchweight drained fighter and their ability of not performing at Optimize level while being drained. There answer well he would still lose. Well if thats the case then why didn't he fight him at his best weight the belt of 154 was on the line not Floyds 152 pound make believe belt.
