Boxers take a loss these days and the first thing they do is go up in weight. "I was killing myself to make weight, that's why I lost." Look at cleverly and bellew - clearly not big enough punchers or framed to be cruiserweights but that's where they are going rather than face up to that they weren't as good as they thought they were....
I don't think that's the case here, Ishida had fought a low level MW bout since his losses, I think.at his age he doesn't want to go out thinking "could I have done it?"
Hmm, he's 6'2, not much for an heavyweight. He'd suit better in the cruiserweight division, at least he could take part in a couple matches there before entering the heavys, to get more accustomed to the weight. It sure will be interesting to see how he'll look like after the "metamorphosis". I wonder how much he's eating right now.
Since you mentioned Golobkin Angulo KO'd Rosado in 2 rounds and didn't get touched. GG needed 7 rounds and end-swell to get it done.
Cut line 1 and drop it at the end after one more beep, then add "Void is void, peeps!' and it can be sung to the tune of "I'm A Little Teapot".
