    Mofo KILLED himself and could only get down to 137.

    He will find it hard to make 140. Hope there is no weight controversy in this fight

    I hope he makes the limit without a problem, its a good card and it would be nice to see it go off without a hitch.

    did he really I know they said he got one but I just figured they were lying. No way he used Dolce and didnt make weight.

    It's very possible especially coming off a layoff.
    We shall see...

    he had both :?

    I think the 3 extra pounds will make a difference though. 3 pounds is a lot of weight for a guy his size

    He's not a very big guy. Very soft in the belly, so there's weight to cut. Just needs discipline. He didn't have trouble making it when he was hanging with Margarito(who is a workout warrior and a really good influence on him). I think he'll make 140 if he wants it.
