floyd weighed 150 at the weigh in and came into fight at 148 for the oscar fight.....

did he train on the night of the weigh in??

[Thread Stealer]

He's just not like the many fighters who put on weight after the weigh-in.

He's probably generally around that weight range.

Maybe he had a big breakfast before weighing in.

He probably drank alot of water before the weigh in.

You can lose that kind of weight at the toilet.

Bigtime 9 wiped off some excess pre fight cocoa butter for him.

All Floyd had to do to rid himself of that extra weight was to pull Pimp C's tongue out of his ass.

i doubt his tongue weighs 2lbs most probably his hands.

You know what Floyd boys are like, their tongues wag so much that they have trouble breathing from the sheer mass of the things, if they didn't eat so much fried chicken:yep they wouldn't be providing their tongues with all that protein.

His weight just fluctuates because he doesn't really dry out. A normal person who isn't mucking about with their weight will gain and lose a pound here or there. You take a piss and lose a pound, you have a meal and gain a pound. Floyd probably ate before the weigh in but didn't eat before the fight and the unofficial weigh in.

The only time Floyd did a small dry out was in his last fight or two at 130 where he said he didn't like making the weight anymore because it was too hard...

...AND THAT WAS SIX OR SEVEN POUNDS!

I remember when Andrew "Six Heads" Lewis ate a bannana split before the fight, he ended up running out the ring because he had to take a shit while the fight was in progress. Does anybody know what the procedure is for eating on fight night.
Generally guys will do one of two things. Eat shit or eat good.

Hatton likes a full English breakfast the morning of the fight and then he'll get all the carbs and shit in later.

DLH for example likes spag, lasagne or some shit like that. Packed with the carbs for energy.

Obviously they won't be eating a few hours before the fight. They don't want to feel full, get a stitch etc
