Smith v Canelo

[Fenster]

He's been weighing in at 155, it's not as though he's been consistently missing the weight by several pounds. Surely one pound isn't going to have an adverse effect on him, considering he turns into the hulk after the weigh-in

You would think it shouldn't make a lot of difference, but it's as much Psychological. he hasn't made 154 for 3 years, and the last time he did , I believe was for the Mayweather fight .
Now I'm not going to make any excuses for him for that fight because he wasn't even in it imo, but I clearly remember seeing a pic of him at the 30 day weigh in , when he was a stone over the limit and thinking to myself "Where the fuck is he going to lose a stone from?". Amazingly, I've just found the link!

I think he'll "make" the weight. Even if he steps on and then steps off before the scale really settles or uses diuretics. He's based in Mexico; the WBC is based in Mexico; and they're fighting over the border in Texas which is known for crooked Sh*t.

Oscar says, canelo follows suit and then he'll start paying weight penalties when he can't do this any longer... till GGG looks beatable or loses a step.
