The oscar that fought shane the second time. Beat's Pac. The oscar that fought Vargas, beats Pac. And that's not insulting Pac.
Every bout has a stipulated weight months before the actual fight. The fact that both fighters signed the contract means that they will be competitive during fight night. Otherwise, they have to renegotiate if they feel that they will be at a disadvantage. So, there should be no excuses after the fight regarding weight. Afterall, they have ample time to train and comply with the weight. Coming in overweight is a different issue.
maybe, maybe not. same thing is being said about Mosley this week. It doesn't mean he is weight drained. so what? he was weighing in at 147 for weeks prior to the fight. Do you not understand this? All this means is he was in training and he took a bunch of weight off. It does not however mean he was weight drained for the fight because he had to excessively de-hydrate for the weigh-in.
Because, they weigh you weeks out from the fight, he could of easily have been weighed after a long workout. Either way, drained, over trained, at a weight he shouldn't be. He had no chance. A punching bag.
/sarcasm. Many fighters who move up in weight lose some speed and/or some athletic ability. Look at Marquez. The difference is that Manny assimilated into the weight better, unlike DLH despite the fact that he apparently was in the weight range for a few weeks prior to the fight. So when people say he lost before even entering, well it really is the case, the sport does not simply begin inside the ring.
If those heavy favorites knew DLH weighed less in the ring the Pac. No one would of bet **** against Pac.
no, I'd say DLH was heavy favourite in the fight right up until about half way through the first round. And even then people were waiting for the inevitable bomb to land which would flatten Pac.
