    When I saw that tale of the tape I ran to the computer to throw a last second bet on Donaire by KO but it was already closed. :oops::oops:

    If Mayweather could figure out a way to drag a guy up from a lower weight class and then drain him, he'd do it. Like, maybe telling a lightweight he'd fight him at a 144 catchweight, so the lightweight bulks up with tacos and urine, and then not making the weight himself?

    Teach them!

    I am sure the cruiserweights gain more than 20 pounds easy.

    who fought recently at 118lbs and was 130lbs n the day cant remember, but thats 2 whole weight classes


    throws out the theory that the little weight differences in the lower classes are necessary doesnt it ?

    Just about to say that, Gamache and there was another guy as well he did that to... Cant think of the name off the top of my head, But Gatti defently has done this a few times.

    Yeah. Gatti made a career out this. Making weightdraining an art and likely using IV's during the night.

    The Gamache fight is a shady story. Some say that Gatti didnt weigh-in properly and stepped off the scale before it could be read.

    Of course Gamache paid a terrible price.
