    Does cheat overweight boxers always win?

    - Joan Guzman 9 lbs. overweight won via SD over Ali Funeka.

    - Jose Luis Castillo 3.5 lbs overweight won by KO4 over Diego Corrales (RIP).

    - Floyd Mayweather Jr. 2 lbs overweight won by UD over Juan Manuel Marquez.

    Anymore examples or contradicting examples.

    I think he means men who were over the weight limit, not obese.

    Donaire won against Rafael Concepcion who came in at 119.5lbs in a 115lbs limit. Donaire was not able to KO him though.

    I know....... I love sarcasm also. I am many times not so serious.

    Do you think Green can get fair decision in Ward's hometown? I kinks of like Green. He was honest in interview, told it like he felt.

    To be honest, I can't see that it'd even be an issue. Barring a knockout, I don't think Green will make it close on points.

    So it's not always the case but I think those boxers who failed to make weight at the weigh-in were mostly in advantageous position.

    - Bigger, heavier
    - Not weight drained, not weak

    It is presumed they are at an advantage. A fighter, especially those who train and drain themselves to make weight and does, are coming in weaker than someone who didnt even drain. I think the disadvantage comes in if both fighters are supposedly a good match up. But if the skill difference is too far, i guess even the drained fighter goes on to win.
