Weight seems to be a hot topic in boxing atm, seen it mentioned after a few recent fights like McDonnell v Inoue & Lara v Hurd In these fights a few people weren’t happy with how Hurd and McDonnell were so much bigger on the night and used their ability to put loads of weight back on to their advantage Now Horn v Crawford is coming up, how is this any different to those above? Horn will be using his size advantage just as the others did/tried to. Does this make him a weight bully?
The weight issue has only become a problem because peoples favorite fighters are getting their ass beat. Say what you will about Floyd's personal life but professionally he never complained about an opponents weight and he always won. If I walk up on a guy on the streets at my size and I start attacking him he won't be worried about my weight class at all, he will just be in a fight. If Horn makes the contracted weight at the weigh in and he comes into the fight at 180 pounds then Crawford will just have to find a way to beat a 180 pound guy. All this sissy ass whining by fans is just code for the vicarious fantasy they have about a man they wish they were. If you are betting on a fight and have money riding on it then I can understand a little complaining but going to a website and harping on that **** day after day is weird man.
Look at this fight and tell me did Evander even bother to complain about weight. He beat this big, slow, Sasquatch and they still had to rob him. This is why HEAVYWEIGHT is the best division ever. No punkassness. This content is protected
There's probably less difference in size between Horm vs Martinez then there was between Horn vs Pacquiao. Sergio would see Horn off within 3-4 rounds tops.
