'Green now 87kg and Flores likely to be 95kg' - Danny Green

Danny Green reveals weight gain ahead of fight against undefeated American BJ Flores in Perth

by Nick Walshaw -The Daily Telegraph - Nov 10th 2010

Danny Green has gained 4kg in a bid to combat a rival he describes as "easily the biggest bloke I've faced inside a ring - ever".

After a sparring session yesterday the International Boxing Organisation cruiserweight champion revealed how the past two months have been spent increasing his weight for American BJ Flores.

Yet even now at 87kg, Green is significantly lighter than the undefeated Californian - who could enter the ring weighing about 95kg in Perth on Wednesday night.

"The bloke is an absolute monster," Green's trainer, Angelo Hyder, concurred.

"The official weigh-in mark is 90.7kg but when he comes to fight more than 24 hours later, mate, who knows how heavy he will be.

"A little guy like Vic Darchinyan can put on 6kg so I reckon Flores could weigh in 95, 96, even 98."

Green added: "BJ's only 31 years old. He's undefeated and it's a very dangerous proposition we've chosen.

"This fight is being screened on ESPN in America so he won't want to be embarrassed. This is his shot at glory - if he beats me it opens massive doors both financially and professionally."

looks like Ashley might now own TC Boxa's house.

 

Even if it's only a modest house, the upside is Ash will get to live in Albury!

 

Green gonna smash the big yankee gash

 

lol...problem is how do you get rid of unwanted sqauters.....at least disconnect his phone line Ash...

 

I could say i told ya so but I'm not that sort of guy.....now were's that francis75 little ***** who said it wouldn't be at 90.7kg:yep

 

come on francis come out of your hole and face the music

 

Weigh in hasn't happened yet guys, don't get too carried away.... :-(

 

at you guys

has anyone bet on this fight? $4.50 for Flores.....its tempting

 

like sox said, weigh in hasnt happen yet guys, calm down lol

Going off what Hyder says i wouldnt bank my house on it, maby just the caravan and squaters? haha, if we take a ride back in time i recall hyder making mention of talk to bring out Evander Holyfeild to fight Green at LH, when Green was bashed from his fans in an open chat session in ref to this he stated that the words Evander Holyfeild have never come out of his mouth in ref to a future fight.

So hows about that one Green fans? whats going on here? Hyder making mention of Evander and Green doesnt have a clue about it nor is he intrested in such a fight. hmmmmm lol

 

I bet on the fight at 5.60, spewing i didnt wait a little longer and get the 7.50 :|

 

Tempting only because its a 2 horse race....my astute knowledge of the game is telling me D Green will mop the floor with Flores.

 

so what happens if dannny mops the floor with bj at cruiserweight? will he receive applause for it on this forum? or will more excuses be made as to why hes shithouse? just wondering

 

Danny has NEVER fought a true CW. Even when he won the IBO title the guy he fought wasnt a true CW, Dominguez usually fought between 75-80kg, not 90kg.

 

Flores has been inactive for 15 months,he fought nobody,Green was wearing loaded gloves,Flores was drugged like the Yanks did with Phar Lap.he ducked Ross and Dawson.
