    To fight night.

    Canelo was 154 for the weigh in I believe and I think 174 on fight night against Angulo. Any other 20 lb.+ weight gains?

    Gatti vs Dorin. I think it was Dorin.. Gatti was like 160+ on fight night if I remember correctly.

    Chad Dawson.

    In his last fight, he weighed in at 182 then was 202 at fight night.

    I also remember Joshua Clottey blowing up to 25 lbs against Diego Corrales. From 149 to 174.

    I heard once that Clottey weighed 170 on fight night after weighing in 147...not 100% sure on that one though.

    I think you might be thinking of Joey gamache, unless he did it with Dorin aswell. He came in 160 and proceeded to destroy Joeys career and brain.

    Yeah, the NYSAC was terrible in this instance.

    Toney was reported to have gained 20 lbs overnight when he fought Ernest Mateen, although I think that was with some clothes on when he was weighed on fight-night.

    Corrales gained 16 lbs. overnight against Mayweather.
    Pacquiao gained 16 lbs overnight against Marquez in 2008.
    Cotto went to 157 against Corley. I think he weighed in at 140.
    Clottey was reported to have gone from 149 to 170 against Corrales.

    A lot of fighters seem to gain at least 15 lbs overnight. It's gotten pretty crazy. It's almost routine.

    I think you are right. I couldn't remember which and was too lazy to Google it. Gamache sounds right. I think there was even legal proceedings or there were going to be..
