How do boxers gain 14+ lbs in one day?

I am not sure who he hired to get him in shape, but wow what a disaster. Oscar was inactive for so long he need 3 training camps. One for weight loss and general conditioning. One for sports specific strength and conditioning, and then one for boxing. You can not accomplish all three of those things in one 8 week training camp, and it showed. I believe Oscar would need 6 months to get into real fighting shape.

 

Conditioner: First of all, let me tell what I do so you understand my point of view. I am a critical care nurse with 12 years of experience and in the middle of anesthesia school. In other words, I keep people alive while surgeons cut into them.
Now, by reading your post I feel like Kermit should not fight @ 147lbs ever again. 154lbs seems more appropiate now that I read this. That amount of fluid he is taking out his body will hurt him in the long run, probably after he retires, but I am sure he wants to make it to 60. Even gaining weight back after weight in I doubt it very much his strength is 100% there for the fight. I know that a risk he needs to take if he want to fight @ 147 and I am not saying you are doing anything wrong. I know your job is to get him to 147lbs. But My question is.............. Don't you think he should stay @ 154lbs??????

 

HBO said Cintron was 159 on fight night. Did they unofficially weigh him kind of early?

 

They weigh you quite early before you fight.

 

Everyone is entitled to there opinion. I was Kermits strength and conditioning coach for all of his pro fights that he one with the exception of the Margarito fight in which his soon to be wife was calling the shots. At that point Kermit was 24-0 with 22kos. The training protocol I outlined in the previous post allowed for him to KO a man that was never knocked off his feet before, and he did so in the 8th round. Which means after fighting a knockout puncher that was throwing 80-100 punches at him Kermit still had the strength to drop him with one shot. As I said earlier it was not uncommon for Kermit to lose 5-7 pounds in his sleep. He always made weight under my training, always weighed in at 160+ on fight night, 22 out of 24 times he ko'd his opponent, and carried his power late.
