    There's rumours going around that Canelo failed to make weight and the Golden Girl payed Golovkin off, this sport is worse than WWE......

    The 160 lbs for each fighter was very strange, I thought. The scale guy didn't seem to need much time to make up his mind about what the weights were either. Which also seemed odd.

    Anything done in Vegas, anything that has Oscar standing over it and anything involving Byrd seems dodgy.

    I read that comment on an article from someone who filmed the weigh-in for secondsout, but I didn't see anything weird on the video and no one from GGG's camp complained.

    The thing that gives this away is that not one single person from GGGs team even bothered to look at the scales. I sometimes think they weigh in before the "official looking" weigh in is done. I dunno. but this was not a typical weigh in........

    It was weird how fast he jumped on and off.
    Anything is possible. I don't have any faith in the Nevada commision these days.

    The scales reading should actually be displayed huge on a big screen anyway. That would be perfect for these arena sized weigh-ins.

    It's possible.

    What if ODLH went to Sanchez and said "Canelo is 163 and isn't going to make weight. We need to make a plan." Then Sanchez said "Sure, on the condition that you pay 50k per pound and guarantee that your crooked judges don't shaft GGG on a decision" And then Oscar said "That's a deal, so long as Golovkin doesn't throw bodyshots"

    And everybody lived happily ever after.
