Weight cutting is one of the most important issues not just in MMA, but in all of combat sports, so this graphic will certainly be of interest to some curious eyes.
Last Saturday night, British boxer Rocky Fielding (27-2, 15 KOs) fought Canelo Alvarez at Madison Square Garden, predictably losing by third-round TKO, and ceding his WBA “regular” super-middleweight title in the process. If there isn’t much to say about what was a clear mismatch, we do get a glimpse into how Fielding maneuvered his way down to 168 lbs throughout his fight camp and up to weigh-in day.
