    No just a short, fat, sweaty mess.

    TBH Crawford on the scales at 180 at the start of camp looked pretty solid.

    Most WW weigh 170-180 walking around.

    A lot of them weigh over 160 in the ring, let alone what they weigh before camp

    Walk around weight and natural fighting weight are two completely different things. So much face palm at this thread.

    Not just weight bully, he has the frame and the reach to cause little guys problems. Same with Mayweather who fought midgets in his career despite being naturally larger.

    You could make the same argument with Ward, being an extremely large man for super middleweight and needing a gift against somebody his own size like Kovalev.

    Pfff.....

    Are you saying he has a ludicrous weight advantage then?

    Balloon being the operative word..

    Did 30 yr old Hatton really weigh 200lbs in between fights? Was that natural or just gluttony?

    I forgot to put earlier in his career, my apologies. Of course he started fighting people his own size eventually.

    Not really since those guys are natural 147 pounders and are cutting weight just like he was at 140.

    You could have answered , but you posted that instead. Why?.. cos you don't have an answer.

    What camp did he enter weighing 180 pound. Watch as Odins Sacks runs away a second time
