    Anyone who mentions "weight bully" on this site should be suspended. It's just a stupid way to criticize fighters you don't like but can't think of any better way to do so. It has no basis in logic or boxing history.

    FACTS!! They also further expose themselves because they're very selective about who they call weight bullies they dont call it straight down the line. I know some fighters that are huge for their weight class but never get mentioned proving they have an agenda.

    Seeing all this moronic garbage about “weight bullying” makes me think I was too harsh on chincheckers.

    The entire concept of a weight bully is unbelievably stupid. Are guys like Inoue, Beterbiev, Tank, prime GGG power bullies because they have more power than everyone else at their weight?

    Anyone who can make the weight limit is entitled to fight in that division. If Kambosos thinks he's too small for 135 he's free to go down to 130 and fight there. Though that might be tough given he just missed weight at 135

    Draining to where you look like the machinist to fight in a class with guys predominantly shorter and smaller than you is probably the definition of weight bully. A fat midget I would understand, cuz who wants to fight guys much longer.

    He is not weight bully, but he has long arms, long reach.

    It gives him an advantage to shot his victims from a distance. Other than that he is not that skilled, I wouldn't say he is an elite level boxer.

    Sooner or later he will fight a close fight expert like Loma and will dissolve into ashes and be forgotten in the boxing history...

    Can we stop with this weight bully crap already? This is just as bad as Nonito Donaire being called a weight bully. If you can make weight then you’re not a weight bully. Simple as that.

    Exactly. One of the more nonsensical ideas that has emerged among boxing fans this century. When I first started watching boxing 45 years ago, nobody talked like this. It's silly.
