    Yeah, probably. Or he's one of those full-of-**** "I'm the same weight I've been since I was 18" types who haven't weighed themselves in years. :lol:

    I'd be surprised too. I think 256 is more likely.
    The sad thing is, even at 235 he's a fatty.

    I think he's going to come in at 250lbs at best... however i'd really hope what Bummy Davis heard here is true, and that he's 235lbs a week from now.

    I wouldn't say he's a fatty at 235lbs, by the way. At 239lbs against Chazz Witherspoon he looked fine. Not ripped, but some people just don't look like that. Bowe, who has a near identical build and body type, was fine at 235lbs as well, despite still looking a bit "soft". It's not all about looks.

    I cannot get how a professional athlete in his mid 20's, where being in shape is the main aspect, blows up to 300lbs and can't get in decent shape even for a dangerous but non-contender like Walker.

    I think Arreola fought as a light heavyweight in the amateurs while still in his 20's. It's quite incredible that he has somehow got to 255+ lbs in fighting weight.

    Just a couple of years before:

    It could be proaganda but its a shame how the Heavys think they are allowed to get fat...there is a perfect weight for everyone and extra fat is extra luggage
