    No, but I think in earlier fights he did look more defined and I only question it now for this fight rather then his last fight, because he is supposed to be coming in lighter for this fight. Typically you get more definition when you thin out and your an athlete. Thats my reasoning. 2 lbs is alot to prepare for at weigh in considering these guys are machines.

    He looks pretty cut IMO. Of course he will never look like Pac. Its genetic.

    i dont really see the difference, maybe on the weigh in he'll look different. He probably did a good job losing weight thus not making him look drained. Only problem is, losing weight properly wont let you balloon too much on fight night, which is one of his advantages.

    Youre probably right. On weigh in he will prob look fairly ripped due to the water weight he will drop off. Body builders use diuretics to increase their definition in the days/hours before an event, and it shows. It will be interesting to note that if he doesnt looked ripped, it may be because hes already at weight as you stated and will come in only a couple lbs over 145, which I think would really be a disadvantage since he does have the size. Such a science, its crazy. People hear 2lbs and think no big deal but, theres a reason for weight divisions being only seperated by a few lbs.

    Some of your guys are dumb as rocks. Calzaghe, diaz, barrerra, Pavlik, Chavez, Camacho, all looked like average Joe's when they were in TOP shape. Its GENITIC'S.

    Send me your Pringles then. Times are hard. :lol:

    Seriously though, someone always says Cotto looks flabby. It's humorous.

    Clearly Miguel needs to try Stanozolol.
