A lot of boxing guys are saying that he has not been treated fairly in Europe
you got it. you would know how detrimental these mid week pre-fight weight checks are to a fighter. they have to basically do a mini weight cut to make these checks. every fighter makes weight differently. i'm not saying mauricio would have made the weight, he has fought over there a few times so these weight checks should have been known to him, so i'd be interested in what his mid week weight checks for his fights there previously were. mauricio is big for the division & may have enjoyed his championship victory a little too much but he won his belt in the ring & should have been given the opportunity to make the weight for the fight at the weigh in. if the bbboc had concerns at that point then they could pull the fight or make other arrangements
