In what way was Funeka being dramatic?

Anyway, no excuses. You can't use illegal substances. He deserves what he gets.

he was clearly upset at the weigh in, and at first it was understandable from our point of view, but knowing that he was on something going into the fight and act such a way is pretty ridiculous, all i know is my sympathies for Funeka are long gone, that said Guzman is still a piece of shit

Nine pounds over is clearly insane though. A diuretic is going to offer no means of beating a guy who has purposely come in so heavy. But yeah, both guys suck. I just think Guzman sucks a lot more and really should be banned too.

I am a Joan Guzman fan but this really disappoints me, because i've always respected Ali Funeka. But yet again boxing has been dealt another black eye.

It is kind of funny that if he was as dramatic about someone missing weight and the discipline it would take to do it, that he himself had to cheat to make 135. They both should be ashamed end of. So that basically means even if Funeka won he'd have been stripped?

If they would have just fought at Diamondweight, Guzman would have been fine and Funeka could have made weight clean.

See THIS is a situation where I can see a catchweight fight working.

If about a week before the fight one fighter doesn't think he will make weight then both camps should contact each other and sanction something and turn it into a catchweight fight.

But what must be agreed on is that the fighter that makes the call for the catchweight fight not fight at that weight class anymore. Fair for everyone? No one burns themself out on weigh in day and the guy that can't make weight has to move up after the fight
