    Yep, he is 40-50kg overweight. Without the fat he could make light heavyweight.

    If he was around 10% body fat & then with a lot of dehydration & rehydration, yes.
    But 40-50kg is an exaggeration.
    About 30 kg. That is plenty anyway.

    Maybe Anthony is making a mistake coming in lighter. He was already out weighed by that gargantuan sized fat sack by 20lbs. I'm just worried if Andy gets any bigger, and Joshua gets any smaller, the bodybuilder might be gobbled up by that ferocious blob. Lol

    Joe Louis fought at approx 196 which is considered Cruiser-Weight today and Joe Frazier fought against Ali at approx 205 for his first fight and at - 210 pounds for his second. .Marciano was 186 pounds in his prime but had fought as low as 182. 175 was considered light heavyweight. Marciano weighed in the range of 184–188 pounds in his 6 title defenses.

    I think you will find Louis averaged over 200 in his career.
    196 would have been early times, even for the Schmelling rematch he was 198 3/4.
    By his first fight with Conn, he was a few lbs. over 200, not at all heavy, but famously lost weight to not seem like a bully against a smaller man. Backburn was furious, lol!

    Most fighters are lighter when young. Marciano was 180 I believe vs. Vingo.
    195 as an amateur, but kept boiling himself down. In a video you can hear him say 187/188 was his ideal weight.

    Last picture I saw of AJ he looked anemically emaciated. I guess that he thinks that the more cadaverous he becomes the faster he can evade Ruiz's lightning-fast, lard-reinforced barrages.

    It's a conspiracy that this fight takes place right in the middle of the Fattest time of the year for Americans between Thanksgiving and Christmas!!

    I'm really not sure how much of a role size will play. If Ruiz goes down and doesn't get up, we can probably guess it might be a reason. Then again muscle ways more than fat anyway and the work he's putting in to get lean will likely strengthen him.

    I'm also 6'2 like Ruiz and I've been 20kg overweight in the past, I looked nowhere near as fat as Ruiz. He is 40kg overweight minimum.

    And so the WBA is listing hoagies as a performance enhancing drug.
