At first I thought so, but I think he made it so easily that he was able to hold the flag while making weight. Am I crazy? He was 0.6 under, so why would he have stripped?


David looked like he struggled to make weight. He had to strip naked and immediately after weighing in started hydrating. His stomach also looked sucked in and not in the best shape.
GGG in great shape as usual.

WEIGH-IN CEREMONIES:


1. The initial weigh-in shall be no less than twenty (20) nor more than thirty (30) hours

before the start of the bout. If either Champion or Challenger fails to make the

prescribed weight at the official weigh-in time, each will have two hours thereafter to

make the prescribed weight.


2. If a Champion shall fail to make the prescribed weight prior to the expiration of the two

additional hours, the title shall be forfeited on the scale. The contest may be staged,

however, as a fight for the vacant title. If the challenger, having made the prescribed

weight, shall win, he will be declared the winner of the vacant title. However, should the

former champion win, the title will remain vacant. If the Champion makes the weight

and the Challenger fails to do so, the fight may be staged with the understanding that the

Champion will retain his title whether he wins or loses the bout. In the event both

contestants fail to make the prescribed weight, the sanction of the bout will be

withdrawn.


3. There shall be a second day weigh-in on the morning of the event. The promoter of the


event shall arrange for the use of the scale at the prearranged time and location for the


second day weigh-in. At this weigh-in, boxers cannot weigh more than ten (10) pounds


over the weight limit. If a boxer weighs more than ten (10) pounds over the weight limit,


he will have two (2) hours thereafter to make the prescribed weight. If after two (2)


hours he still weighs more than ten (10) pounds over the weight limit, the fight cannot


proceed as a championship bout. If the Champion fails to appear for the second day


weigh-in, the title will be vacated. If the Challenger fails to appear for the second day


weigh-in, the fight may be staged with the understanding that the Champion shall retain


his title whether he wins or loses the bout.

I didn't know about it myself until Ken Porter brought it up in regards to Shawn Porter making weight easily against Adrien Broner. He said they already had been under restrictive rules before (IBF Champion before), so he seen no problem if AB wanted a rehydration clause or not

Didn't realise GGG was that much bigger than Lemieux
