:think And if so what was the weight agreement? I thought I heard that Oscar would have to pay X amount of dollars per extra pound he carried, Now my question is was that agreement for the weigh in only or was Oscar not allowed to weigh in more than 147 the night of the fight? I mean damn the man only put on two pounds from the weigh in to the fight, that is just ****ing insane.
147 was the weight limit at the weigh-in.If Oscar was over that,he would pay for every pound.No weight on fight night was stipulated.
I agree with that, its also possible that they can stipulate in the contract that he cant weigh more than X amount on the night or pay x amount per pound over that.. I know recently a fighter was going to take a fight with a bigger fighter and was asking for the same thing on the night of the fight I think it was Mayweather who was in talks with fighting Winky or some ****.
I believe he didn't make weight anyways, and the scales were rigged. Since Pac destroyed DLH though nobody is making a big deal about all the controversary. Besides, what is a few million compared to the amount he's going to make against Hatton, and then ultimately Mayweather?
Freddy Roach said in a video posted here that DLH had to make weight they got to train for the fight, and that the scales beat Oscar, looking at how DLH looked he looked like he was a crack head in there, he just looked un healthy, I beleive he made the weight and I also beleive he is a finished fighter the signs were clearly there that night. DLH couldnt pull the trigger at all, that is the first sign of a fighter being shot, his reflexes seemed to be gone.
It sure didn't help him. Saying that he had to use medicine to keep him below 147. Whatever the f"#k that means.
there was no penalty for being over 147 @ fight night. on hbo's 24/7 oscar weighted in at 145 on thanksgiving day. he was in shape and didn't have to struggle last minute to shred off any pounds. and normally oscar only hydrates 5-7 pounds overnight anyway. but the fact that oscar unofficially weighted in ''less than PAC'' @ fight night was utter bull****. i was there live and seen the replay afterwards.. it was clear that oscar was bigger and weighted more than manny. but hey, none of that **** matters. manny pac'd him up anyway.
seriously, you can tell, body wise, dlh was the bigger man. and dont think they even had the fight night weigh-in for dlh-mayweather.
