He struggled a little bit to make weight ahead of the Butler fight, missing it on the first weigh-in, but making it in the second weigh-in after a brisk jog. This content is protected Regardless of the outcome, his days as a bantamweight are clearly over. Shame Fulton couldn't wait for him.
I was worried he would miss weight as his manager says he is at 64kg in walk around weight, but due to the fans wanting to see it, I wanted him to fight Estrada before going to 122. No way it'll happen now, though.
I think beating MJ would cement him as a fighter discussed as a top low weight class fighter of all time.
Fulton and MJ will hide behind his promoters and duck him he will have to fight guys like Nery instead and get to a mandatory spot where the belt holder either fights him or vacates the belt.
Only reason he's probably at the weight is to unify all the belts. He gained 17lbs after the weigh in of his last fight so it's clear his days at Bantam are over, I see him at 126lbs eventually.
I used to respect Fulton but it's more than obvious that he's ducked Inoue. Tried talking all that trash about him only to avoid fighting him, I'd be embarrassed if I were him.
He rehydrated 13 for McDonnell and looks way bigger now. His manger said he was 64kg/141 *a couple of weeks ago.
13 pound claim: This content is protected I actually can't find the 64kg claim, I just saw somebody make it on Youtube, but he is definitely way bigger than he was at 131
I've read McDonnell was 148. Don't trust these sources, but it doesn't make sense. He's skinny as a rail even on fight night.
