I think he could still fight at 126. After he destroyed Donaire there was nothing left for him but the Russian and Arum was not interested. He's huge sure and could most likely fight at 135 but there was nobody left at feather to motivate him to burn it off. He didn't even try to make weight for Marriaga and when he weighed in a pound heavy Roy said he walked around the block once. Perhaps you are right though or they do some catch thing. Maybe the Russian is getting a little tired of struggling also. He's pretty big himself.
