    174 and a bit - like the Kessler fight he managed to come in just under. He also appears to have grown into the frame better he looked a little under developed versus Hopkins imho.

    Jones as always looked stunning. :thumbsup

    I thought the same. How they look is usually completely meaningless unless they appear like a zombie, but still Calzaghe looked better. To be expected.

    i think even 175 is turning out to be a tough hit for JC these days. imagine what weight he would be if he done weights

    Calzaghe still looks small-framed for 175. Plus, he did hit that water bottle Immediately after weigh-in. Not a promising sign for Calzaghe fans .

    Calzaghe looked ready, didnt look tired, he seemed focus and comfortable at the weight, but then ran for the water, its just that his body aint as wide as RJJ's,

    RJJ was ripped to the maximum,

    RJJ has chicken legs and a ridiculous waist measurement like 29" or something

    I'm a Calzaghe fan but I won't make water drained excuses because he was 6 pounds over yesterday. That is extremely common.

    That could possibly be part of the reason as he got older he lost his legs you know.

    I thought he looked better at the weight this time around too.
