    He put a re-hydration clause in the contract? Not allowing Canelo to rehydrate past 165 or some **** like that. I know rehydration clauses have been looked down on by boxing fans in the past

    thoughts?

    I wouldn't knock it personally cause allowing a fighter to gain 11 pounds overnight is a reasonable demand.

    Yes. It'd just be another daft stipulation that Void wold throw out there when faced with a dangerous challenger.

    Why not just ****ing fight? It's his job, for god sake.

    I personally wouldn't have a problem with it. But it would be the biggest irony after catch-weights and rumored re-hydration clauses stipulated by the smaller Manny had the rabid Floyd fans calling for his banishment from the ATG list.

    I dont think as current rules stand that their should be rehydration clauses inserted.


    I do think there should be rules about rehydration any way, as its not safe for either fighter/

    I think Floyd should let him rehydrate that much, the guys stamina is terrible it will probably help Floyd

    No. It wouldnt be ducking. It would be using common sense. Floyd is old and small as it is already. But if it happens im cool with it..
