Hop was a real gym rat. He stayed pretty close to 160 24/7 in between fights. Always in fight shape. Could be that he started at 175 as a fully grown man and had to in order to maintain 160 but he was one of those anomalies that walked around at the same weight he fought at and could fight 25 rounds.
That was why he was willing to fight Oscar at 156lb?
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
