    Boxing is slowly climbing into the reality tv genre with the weight bullshit in almost every big fight. Its beyond pathetic. They should just add another 17 divisions.

    Btw Alvarez was never fined. The contract read "154 plus one" which is unbelievable in and of itself.

    Its def more of a theatrical soap opera. Sometimes I feel like I'm looking at a room of crying toddlers when they start in with the .0001/4 lb silly shat. 154+1 ffs...sounds like something my nephew would say when asked how old he is while holding up one hand and saying "I'm this many". At 23 years old you should be able to burn a lb as some after thought. Big fooking baby.

    Didn't Alvarez do this in the Hatton fight also in some other catchweight bs

    That news to me, I thought he was definitely fined for the pound.

    That means we're arguing about nothing because he did not come in overweight if the contract said plus one.
