If they were not cowards, I would suspect many of them would try to attack the Gardens to stop the fight from happening.
Two non black or latino fighters in a high profile ppv fight is a big problem for some Imagine constructing your whole life on a belief that is now shattering before your eyes
The closer weigh-in to the fight, the higher health risks. That is why they are not doing the same day weigh-ins anymore.
9AM EST? That's 6AM here on the west coast. Damn both guys will be near cruiser weight when its time to fight! I don't like this and is just more proof that boxing has a broken system. We need same day weigh ins.
I don't give a **** about the health risk to the fighter who is trying to fight at an artificially low weight class, how about the risk to the fighter who is outweighed by 12 lbs.?
