    Was this ever released? I don't see why people always use the excuse of "naturally bigger guy" if you chose to take the fight and you weigh in the same the fight is even period.

    Is this real or you're making it up?

    Same as all his fights at 155. 175-180. I notice he also drinks a lot of water in the early rounds. Most fighters wont take any in for a few rounds at least. Canelo drinks so much he needs a case of water bottles for himself.:patsch

    Made up. The fight night weight for each guy was not disclosed. A mutual agreement suggested by Oscar I'm sure.:yep But he looked his usual 170-175. Closer to 175 I would think.

    how the **** do they rehydrate 20 pounds? That seems a little bit ridiculous.

    Not sure but Canelo looked enormous compared to Khan.

    I suspect 172-173, the same as in his last fights, but this won't go on much longer, he looks half dead at the weigh ins and had much trouble in the first rounds of the fight.

    If they continue to do that, we might be in for a surprise 2 or 3 fights down the road.

    Water. Reydrating 10 pounds is the norm. But when you see a guy coming in 20 pounds over that means he has been cutting a lot of weight. Canelo would feel so much better if he just weighed in at 160.

    Yes exactly. He looks like a pale ghost. Then shows up in the ring looking like Brock Lesnar!:patsch That's why they have to be very careful whom they put him in with. Natural SMW or smaller with minimal power seem to be his favorite dish. Guys with long layoffs like Kirkland and Khan he likes also.

    Nobody knows. And for those saying 180, prove canelo has ever come in at 180.

    I think canelo looked smaller than usual and came in lighter than his norm for Khan.
