Suleiman having consideration for boxers and being worried about their health??? This has to be AI generated!Agreed – it would once again become a contest of who is the best fighter at that weight and not, as it sometimes is now (looking at you Haney) a contest of who is best able to lose weight/rehydrate – which is 80% genetics and 20% training team knowledgeto be fair > yes he bends his own rules, abuses his own ranking system but the WBC has started a few initiatives to improve boxing – and those few things are mora than the wba and wbo have ever done and the ibf has only ever introduced 2nd weigh-in 10lb limit Since same day makes boxing safer

We need to return to odd rounds someone has to win no draw cards. Main event and co-main 13 rounds each. Have the undercards be 9 max.

Top ten recent de-hydration exploits
Crawford at 135
Haney at 135
Broner at 135
Zurdo at 168
Ortiz at 147
Navarette at 122
Ennis at 147
Ryan Garcia at 135
Mikaela Mayer at 130
and likely Rafael Espinosa at 126 – how a 6ft1in guy cn make 126 is beyond me – I’m 6ft and never weighed close to 147 even when 20 yrs old
Zurdo lol Fat Gilbert added 30 overnight vs Top Soviet Bivol

fighters who would have a harder life with same day

Buff Guy Jai has weighed beyond 200 before

Buff Guy Yarde has weighed beyond 175 before

Fat Gilbert already flabby at cruiser

Fat Dave already flabby at 175

​​​​​​​Brian looks pretty buff at 147 idk how much he’s cutting

We may need a new division between 175 and 200 then

a return to same day would be great for guys like Top Soviet Bivol, Floyd, et al who add back on <= 10 pounds

these guys become more dominant as they’re now beating up opps who lack a 10 or 15 pound size advantage

Agreed – it would once again become a contest of who is the best fighter at that weight and not, as it sometimes is now (looking at you Haney) a contest of who is best able to lose weight/rehydrate – which is 80% genetics and 20% training team knowledge
