Did not know that, but not at all surprised. Why should he? He did his job. He stepped on the scales the day before, looking slightly anemic and with a weirdly sucked-in stomach. Once in the ring, he looked twice the size of Martinez. The only division where this should be allowed is heavyweight, which is open-ended. Roach talked about Junior moving up in weight? What a surprise! Now there's a fucking no-brainer. Junior should be at cruiserweight or light heavy, banging with guys his own size. I would venture to bet that his record would quickly become quite ordinary.
