dlh was thin but not weight drained, as i said on the other thread. a boxer who is weight drained does not sweat as much warming up for a fight, dlh was sweating. both of them on the night of the official weigh in did not look like zombies cause of draining.
Good point. DLH had a good lather on just before the fight. A dehydrated weight drained fighter does not sweat up well at all.

Roach says Manny weighed over 146 lbs on their own scales not long before the official weigh in. 4 LB's got lost somewhere in that time frame. It makes you wonder if the scales were messed with just so DLH would not have to pay Manny more money.

It is one of those conspiracy theories that many will ponder for a while.
It's not just water than contributes to being weight-drained.

Muscle glycogen levels are very important and they need to be maximum come fight night. In-fact some form of carb-loading should take place in order for him to super-saturate his muscles with glycogen.

The fact that he only added 2lbs suggest to me that he didn't consume anywhere enough carbohydrates between the weigh in and fight night.
