why would de la hoya wait so long to rehydrate?

i thought he said he didnt have to dehydrate cuz he had made the weight so early

i always wondered this as well, roach says when they met in the middle of the ring before the fight he saw the needle marks and said they waited to long to hydrate oscar and left it too late, i think oscar weighed the same on teh night as he did at the weigh in so whats the explanation please esb

 

exactly...he had made the weight so early that his actual physical size was cut..he was literally a smaller man cuz he had to cut so much muscle...HE CLAIMS TO HAVE BEEN DOWN TO 141 JUST A MONTH PRIOR...

AND NOT ALL FIGHTERS DO....FLOYD DIDNT PUT ON WEIGHT WHEN HE FOUGHT OSCAR AT 154...AGAIN....HE CLAIMED TO HAVE MADE THE WEIGHT EARLY ENOUGH SO HE DIDNT HAVE TO DRY OUT..PROBLEM WAS HE WASNT FOCUSING ON ANYTHING BUT MAKING THE WEIGHT

 

he weighed in at 145 and the next night weighed 147

 

Maybe he was trying to make it seem like he was still the smaller man on the day of the fight and after he got weighed on fight day is when he started to hydrate.

 

That would be a great deal of effort for a favourable reflection from a stat that many people will never even see

 

Wasn't their a conspiracy theory about how Oscar was way over weight and they "fixed" the scales? As the theory goes, they "fixed" it too good and Oscar came in under. Not only that but Pac came in under what they were expecting him to weigh too. Pac ate full meals that day just to keep the weight on...

He said in a ring magazine he was trying to keep his weight low so it would be easy to drop to 140. He wanted to go down to 140 after the Pac fight.

 

Because pacquaio sucks , is that what you're trying to get at ?
