Being overtrained isn't the same thing as cutting too much weight or not cutting weight properly. That's just training without a braining.
Cotto vs Trout. Cotto was way over doing it and at altitude for the first time, but only the first half of camp. Sounds like a weird way to do it.
Difference between them is Kirkland got popped and dropped repeatedly but was theoretically "fine" to continue each time. Pac got knocked out cold, so no, concussions or over-sparring would not impact that. Over-sparring as in over-training and having poor condition, yes. But he didn't get KO'd because he had taken a particular punch in training.
Donny Lalonde swears he overtrained for the Leonard fight. Being that he was a LHW who weighed in at like 163, I'd tend to perhaps believe him.
Hatton says he overtrained for Pacquiao. He should've been doing squats to cushion that *** hitting the floor..
The fact that many people would take this opinion show how little everyone knows about PED's in athletics.
If anyone actually was in an overtrained state then they'd be a zombie in the ring. Being in an overtrained state doesn't happen by accident, you'd have to have some idiot trainers/coaches to get you there. Not peaking because of a prolonged training camp is a completely different thing.
its because he was hurt Badly in the 2nd round and was taking clean bombs every round following that. he couldn't ever beat DW, they could fight literally 200x and lose every time being ko'd half the time. of course he was over trained. the first give a way sign where the 20 lb love handles hanging down. over fed maybe and under trained for fight shape
