    Default The Final weigh-in

    I love to watch the weigh in for the fights I am going to watch. I think the stare down is telling to the way a fight might play out. I made a comment that Ortiz letting Mayweather choke him in the final weigh in was telling of his submissive mentality...well we all know how that played out.

    In the weigh in today for Mayweather VS Guerrero, Guerrero looked very solid, no flinching, no yapping about what he's going to so, just solid focus and eye contact. At the same time, Floyd was not trying to intimidate, did he know it wouldnt work? Does he have a more quiet confidence now? Does any of this mean anything?

    I'd like to know if you guys think that stare down at the weigh in means anything at all as to the mentality of a fighter and if it will mean anything in the ring?
    The key is Self-discipline.

    I honestly think it means very little outside of a fighter being blatantly intimidated or cowering at a weigh in.
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
