Conor Benn on 15 weeks dieting for 147 vs Ryan Garcia
投稿者: Yamanaka: Conor Benn
Conor Benn just opened up about the sheer scale of his weight cut, revealing that roughly 15 weeks of his entire camp were spent managing numbers rather than technical boxing. He went from walking around at 185lbs for the Eubank fight down to 147 for this showdown with Ryan Garcia. The magnitude of fighting for the world title in Las Vegas as the headliner meant he couldn't say no, even if it felt like a brutal road compared to when he was solid and strong at his previous weight.

How much does the cut affect the camp, right? How much of the camp do you have to spend, not maybe on the technical side, but actually just managing the weight versus training for a boxing match in the usual fashion? About 15 weeks of dining. Yeah. You've got to think, I was around 185 pounds for the Eubank fight. And that was solid. Felt good. Felt strong. You know, but when an opportunity like this comes up, and you have the magnitude of the event fight for the World's Island, in Vegas, headlining. Well, what can I do? Say no.
