    The thing is these weight bullies get so much hype from dumb casuals. But when they move up to a weight where they don't have huge advantages they look average.

    He's not. ESjr at 160 would look more or less like Oscar at 160 when he fought Sturm. And ESjr at 160 would be facing guys who come in at LtHW or possible more.

    Well at MW he would be fighting men who are cutting to make MW.

    At 140 Crawford was entering the ring as a MW.

    Both are more fact than opinion.

    This is not weight bullying if you can make the weight that is fine. I define weight bullying as A side divas either draining opponents or forcing them to move up in weight for a fight.

    ^ this. Draining to make weigh can have detrimental effects too. Bit I like what you said. Dragging someone up is forcing a weight clause for a fight is a good example.

    "Weight divisions exist for a reason"

    "What a fighter weighs in the ring doesn't matter"


    Boxing is all over the place.

    If you can make weight,cool. But don’t make excuses about how weak you feel or how the KOes aren’t happening because you are cutting weight.

    I know this is a novel idea, but.....bring back same day weigh ins and let's try to get rid of this nonsense.

    I couldn't agree more it's used by trolls who only hate on certain fighters yet let others have a pass because they like them. Weight bully is a garbage hater term.

    It's weight bullying like the others who rehydrate 15-20 lbs on fight night.

    Fight day weigh ins. Worked in the old days should be ok now.

    And this excludes them from being weight bullies how exactly? Both Crawford and Spence have been known to walk around 170-180
