These guys walk around at about 160 anyway what are they doing fighting at 135. I just think a fine would have been sufficient.
Not making weight twice in a big fight like this TWICE is breaking the law of boxing. He deserves suspension, he didnt tell anyone he wasnt close to making weight. He robbed all of the peolpe of their money, the promoters got screwed...he deserves everything he gets.
I'm not saying he's blameless, just doesn't desreve to be suspended. Promoter's got screwed & allegedly lost money, I'm really sad for Aram & Shaw... not. Remember Corrales chose to call of the fight. I don't mean he should have gone ahead but he did have a choice.
