    Unless Victor's just playing mind games, I think that this is a bad move.

    He will be over 155 at the 2nd day weigh-in even, and a couple more when they actually step into the ring.

    Why?

    Mikey’s name is tarnished working with Conte.

    155 is probably exactly where he was at for the Broner fight. Just a few pounds shy of that for Easter too im sure.

    Spence routinely comes in around 156 when his fight night weights are taken.

    this will be a brutal pinata style beating.

    Given Mackie's rep and history, I don't think either one was going to keep his squeaky clean image lol

    It'll be less than there was when he was at 140 . His new diet and nutrition regime is SNACtacular!

    Lol I remember that now. Broner is from Cincinatti which isnt the hood.

    The "hood" is an old school 90s concept in America. When crime in the inner cities was absolutely outrageously high. It's a result of manufacturing jobs leaving the cities and transitioning towards an information economy. And you see high murder rates, terrible schools, abandoned homes, population loss, police corruption, drugs, etc.

    America has actually cleaned up its inner cities so much in recent decades. New York City looks like a whole new world compared to the 70s.

    The only large city in America that is still truly the "hood" is Baltimore and Detroit and to a lesser extent maybe Chicago.

    People dont realize that quality of life in poor inner city areas is far better now in American cities than it was. They just remember the recession of the late 2000s and think because rich people and middle class were hit hard that the country is worse than ever in the hood. Which is not true.

    ?

    Back to the original question, coming in bulked up is gonna backfire big time for Mikey. He has no clue how his body is gonna handle so much weight and bulk in real time vs. a guy that is known to push guys to their stamina limits. He's gonna burn out.
