He can come in sluggish he can come in weak - Oscar De La Hoya pinpoints how Jake Paul s rehydration clause will affect Hasim Rahman Jr

Oscar De La Hoya (@oscardelahoya), Jake Paul (@jakepaul), Hasim Rahman Jr. (@hasimrahmanjr) [images courtesy of Instagram] shared some expert insight into how the rehydration clause set for may affect him in their fight on August 6th at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Paul revealed on that the clause states they will weigh in at 200lbs, the morning after they can weigh up to 215lbs, and on the evening of the fight they may weigh as much as they want. He also added that the New York State Athletic Commission was reluctant to sanction the fight because they were worried about the size advantage Rahman Jr. may have over Paul. Oscar De La Hoya gave his thoughts on the clause: "Ten pounds overnight for a fighter who is fighting at heavyweight can be a huge difference. He can come in sluggish, he can come in weak. It's a big difference, so advantage: Jake Paul." De La Hoya stated that, at times, a rehydration clause is necessary: "When you're the bigger guy, at times you do have to put a rehydration clause where it doesn't affect any fighter. It kind of protects them, but it can hinder your performance, that's for sure." He added that he thinks these clauses can both be there to protect and also to mess with a fighter's head or their opponent, which may be what Jake Paul's plan is. Paul is very good at smack talk and getting under his opponents skin, so this may have added another layer to the mind games building up to the moment Paul and Hasim Rahman Jr. meet in the ring.
