to make a comparison, when Margarito fought Williams, his unofficial weight was 157lbs, and Williams was 162. And when Margarito fought Santos at Junior Middleweight, his unofficial weight was 160lbs, and Santos was 170lbs. When Cotto fought Demarcus Corley at Junior Welterweight, his unofficial weight was 157lbs. just some food for thought. Collazo's unofficial weight last night was 155.
Nice information after all the bull**** of Margo fighting smaller boxers and not being a welterweight. The natural weight is the lower weight that you can make without being drained for the fight at your age. If you can fight at welterweight at 180lbs and still make 147 for the fight this is your best class. It's logical. I'm not a big Margo fan but all the people that try to disrespect him because he is bigger than his opponents are speaking bull s.
Good stuff, Philla. I heard that last night as well. So, I guess the inevitable "He's too big for WW" campaign will start at any minute, right? Somehow I doubt that.
Arturo Gatti weighed 19 lbs over the weight class unofficially and ko'd a guy who went into a coma for a few days so now boxers unofficial weight is only allowed to be 14lbs over the weight class limit anyone know how they put the weight on so quickly in 48 hrs?
Berto is a strong dude. He does not have a boxers build. He looks like a mini football player in a boxing ring.
