That's clearly a fat and not a rehydrated man. You should probably understand how weight cutting works before writing idiotic, yet assertive posts about the subject. GGG has said he'll fight anyone from 154 to 168. GGG is built for the 160lbs amateur division, there are junior welterweights his size in the pros.

No need to be defensive, there's nothing idiot about what I said. Floyd barely goes above 150 on fight night and isn't even fighting Alverez at the 154 limit. So yes, it's a waste of time even suggesting the fight. Mayweather already said he only wants to fight people at their comfortable weight.

 

[muddream]

and yet he's fighting someone who's 10 pounds heavier than GGG on fight night...it's a waste suggesting that fight because Floyd and most casual boxing fans have never heard of Golovkin, not because GGG wouldn't or couldn't make the weight. You might want to actually explain how someone can be 10 pounds lighter with a similar bodyfat-%, but still be the bigger fighter due to being "build for a higher weight"...to me that does seem conflicting/idiotic.

 

[charsace]

He has awful stamina, makes no sense either since he's not even that active of a fighter to begin with.

It's because he cuts a lot of weight for the weigh ins.

Bam Bam does as well and he never had stamina issues.

Klitschko vs. Powetkin might not happen due to disputes about the doping tests. Klitschko wants NADA, Powetkin wants Russian RUSADA. Today the deadline (technically) runs out.

Fucking bullshit.

That's stupid. The only hw fight anyone even barley wants to see and it's not going to happen? Fucking boxing.

Rios cuts like 10-12 lbs of weight. Alvarez probably cuts 15-20 lbs.

Garcia has said Rios walks around between 170-180lbs, he cuts a lot of weight.

When he's not preparing for a fight most likely. A lot of guys get big when they aren't training hard for a fight.

Maidana vs Lopez and Lara vs Angulo coming up on showtime.

 

[x Power Pad Death Stomp x]

Lara looking good so far.

So Angulo is done right? His orbital bone is fucked.

That was nasty looking, and also a good fight.

What a great weekend of boxing. Maidana=Lopez and Angulo-Lara were both fantastic fights. I really hope that Angulo-Lara gets a rematch.

 

[x Power Pad Death Stomp x]

Anyone watching HBO tonight? Decent little scrap to start the night with Sanabria and Crawford.

 

[Relix]

Juanma is done for. Yup. Motherfucker doesn't know how to box.

 

[Avon Barksdale]

Hopkins vs. Murat is off due to visa issues with Murat.

Yeah, a good little fight. I'm not sure what to make of Crawford though. Both fighters seemed to have huge defensive gaps. In that way it kind of looked like a bunch of random fighters on ESPN2 and not someone being presented as a future P4Per. I guess we'll have to see how he looks against better known fighters.

Juanma is done for. Yup. Motherfucker doesn't know how to box.

Jesus christ yeah. What a humiliating loss for Marquez. Is Garcia really that good? He has kind of been a slow burn fighter in the past. He will seem to win the early rounds without dominating and then suddenly land a KO shot out of nowhere. In this fight he simplu decimated Junama.

As a former wrestler who had to make weight, I have to say that I'm pretty disappointed that he came in overweight, especially since he indicated after the fight that he would probably stay at 126. Oh well. 126 has become a monster division. Mares, Donaire, Garcia, and probably Rigondeaux as well.

Malignaggi vs Broner tonight.

 

[x Power Pad Death Stomp x]

I for one am stunned that Wlads trainer is putting on a boring as fuck performance.

 

[BadAss2961]

Mitchell fights like a mummy when he gets his bell rung. He really can't take much to the head.

Looks like he'll win though unless he completely gasses out. Banks let him get settled after he had him hurt again like the last fight.

I for one am stunned that Wlads trainer is putting on a boring as fuck performance.

lol... Hard to be a force in the division when you can barely beat Wlad's trainer.

 

[x Power Pad Death Stomp x]

Banks hurts him every time he touches him. Good thing for Mitchell his plan is to not throw punches.

 

[K.Jack]

Fuck life I forgot to get my bets in on Malignaggi.

 

[LQX]

Ugh, Broner is so irritating. I hope he gets fucked up.

 

[LQX]

This is a joke right? Anyone watching this?

 

[BadAss2961]

With their antics, Broner and Malignaggi are pretty funny in the ring together.

Interesting fight.. .Paulie's doing what he's gotta do, but Broner's offense is so crisp.

MUAY THAI KNEE.

 

[K.Jack]

He just kicked this mofo in the nuts...

 

[LQX]

Either this is set-up are this dude has the weakest punches I have ever seen in boxing. It's like is soft boxing a brick wall.

 

[BadAss2961]

I'll repeat, these two are excellent together. lol

Paulie's landing a lot of body shots. Broner has to be careful about that.

 

[x Power Pad Death Stomp x]

Paulie has NO power. He is landing a lot to the body, should come into play later

 

[BadAss2961]

Wtf... Superman punch from Broner?

Broner starting to wear him down.

 

[perineumlick]

Broner looks slow and sluggish, like he can't let his hands go. The weight might be too much too soon; he also seems a bit surprised by Paulie's speed. He gets handcuffed when Paulie throws, and can only land one or two shots at a time.

This is how Broner fights, just constant pressure moving forward, not letting his hands go until he's almost certain you've lost some pop on your shots.

Yup...

I'm very impressed by Broner. He seems to get more into it when someone gives him a good fight. Dude's a gamer.

 

[perineumlick]

Broner is a disaster waiting to happen. He will get eaten up if he fights at 140, and welters with power will beat him too. I'm not impressed at all by him lately.

 

[abuC]

LMAO....they looked like they were about to start break dancing there.

 

[Vivalaraza]

LOL

Talking to Floyd

 

[BadAss2961]

Good fight... Paulie's hanging in there, but Broner's too much.

 

[Koko]

:lol to that scorecards.
