Saw the bradley marquez press conference, Tim Fatley is walking around at 170, it shows. Kinda hard to tell, but he sounds like he has a slur, too. Marquez said he wants Slim to sign a rehydration clause, no more than 10 lbs over on fight night. Thoughts?
Marquez did say that but contracts are already signed so not sure why it was even mentioned. Marquez also said he hopes both vada & usada test @ same times, doesn't matter if there random but done @ same time so both test can support each other . Contracts are signed already so not sure again why this is being talked about by the camps. Bradley said both usada & vada testing & there's no rehydrate clause.
Marquez should stipulate that if Bradley wants to rehydrate more than 10 lbs he needs to do so by chugging his pee. (Marquez's; he probably has gallons of it decanted in storage)
Rehydration shouldn't really matter too much. If a boxer is rehydrating so drastically then you can presume he's killing himself to make weight. It's all about balance!
Timmy ballooned up a lot after the Pac fight, he already had a hard time making weight vs Provodnikov, Dynamita is a much more dangerous fighter though, and I just can't see the always game Timmy making the final bell
If Bradley rehydrates a ridiculous amount, he'll be much slower, easier to counter, and it's not going to magically give him crazy punching power though it might improve his punch resistance and physical strength. With Bradley's weakish punches, Marquez isn't going to be afraid to take chances for counters, so to me the fight is really more about if Father Time catches up to Marquez more than anything else.
i dont see why there is a rehyrdation clause, bradley is feather fisted no matter what weight. a 170 bradley is still probably half the power of a 150 pac.
He has the slur of a damaged fighter. Hopefully its not the case, but after the last fight he was interviewed before going into the ambulance and he sounded like he had hypothermia. Horrendous to watch
