    Needed an IV in his dressing room to get to the ring. That's pretty bad.

    Duran nearly killed himself trying to make weight in the rematch with Leonard.

    Benn for Eubank I had to shift a reported 7lbs on the day of the fight.

    Tiger for Downes had to shift 4 pounds in a couple of hours.


    Toney for Jones would be my overall pick.

    Easily Eubank before his first fight with Watson. 19 lbs. in four days apparently.

    Yeah I remember reading that, I wonder how much he ended up cutting.

    And question on Toney, how weight drained was he?

    Did he need it or they thought it would help. I don't understand how they messed up that badly

    Scott Harrison used to weigh 18lbs more on fight night, so can only assume thats 18lbs off drying out in the 4/5 days previous to the fight.
    Thats around an 1/8 of his entire bodyweight

    Toney was something like 230 four weeks before the fight, got down to 168 and was on a drip at one point the night before the fight.
