    Are they fighting at the middleweight? If so, it is embarrassing, yes.

    I knew he wanted no part of the cw Jacobs that ggg fought
    I knew he would pull this shyte hence months and months ago I stated scales should not come into when these two meet

    That's what I always think of when I read Danny Jacob's name. "Oh, that's that light heavyweight who cuts down to beat up smaller middleweights." He typically gains 15-20 pounds after weigh ins. I've got no respect for guys who do that.

    Who does same day weigh ins these days? I thought everyone did it day before in big fights. It's become part of the promo.

    It is the fault of the sanctioning bodies who let this happen. Obviously, it advantages always the company fighter.

    Floyd mastered it now Canelo is doing the same. It is pathetic.

    That's why this is one occasion where it's not just Canelo, it's rife through boxing and if there could only be an overall agreement the sport would be much better off.

    If Jacobs moved up to 168 and then fought say Callum Smith but wanted a rehydration clause added in I would definitely say he was embarrassing himself by being such a hypocrite.

    Short end before against who exactly, Floyd?

    Remember one judge scored it a DRAW for Clenelo against Floyd too. She read the script too early on that one it seems :lol:

    are you aware that the conversation was regarding weight, or are you just taking any available chance to take a shot at canelo?
