6.5 pounds. That's 22,750 calories. He's gotta lose basically 3500 calories every day. I really don't know how these boxers do this crap man. That's absolute murder. He can't eat anything and then he has to burn 3500 calories on top of not eating a day for a whole week. I don't care what you say even if he makes the weight and rehydrates, he's gonna be weak as hell and very slow. Losing a pound a day for a whole week is extremely damaging on the body. Considering that he's already done this a bunch of times, his body must be destroyed already. To lose that he's gotta spar all day and still run six or seven miles.
