Default how much protein?

hey guys, this may be a dumb question but i have read many different opinions on it. In lots of books i read, including the first time i learned about keto, i have been told to count calories...which obviously makes sense. However, upon reading many of the pro's sites, they say they eat unlimited amounts of lean protein and just keep the carbs in check. Jay cutler claims to eat two pounds of fish/chicken every two hours. certainly this is way too many calories for weight loss right? or is the lack of carbs enough to ensure losing the fat? i am currently taking in around 500g of protein a day and 90g of carbs and this formula i use has worked for me in the past. however if i were to increase the protein would it spare more muscle? thanks.
