    agree, he's too big for 147.

    My understanding from quotes and articles is that he does a very limited weight program, and he does a lot of running, so i think his 30 day weigh was his 'fighting fit' weight.

    the weight he needs to lose from now till may 5th will only be water weight.

      At this pont in Oscars career and his age there is no way he could make 147. I think 154 at this point is his best weight and middleweight is to big.

        If Spinks does pull the upset, I wouldn't be surprised if Floyd was the one who went after him at 160.

          at the 30 day weigh in he was within small range of 154 and for the little u could see his body had more fat on it than other PRIME fighters.
          Small range? He was 164.5. That's far from a small range. You can imagine how much he weighed before hand.

            That is a small range for the evident amount of additional mass he was carrying on his body. There are fighters who are even farther away from the weigh in weight at 30 days.

            How much he weighed before hand is irrelevant he had a double chin and what not,

              I like the idea of a possible Spinks upset of Taylor then the winner of DLH v Mayweather would fight for the undisputed middleweight title.

              It would add a great touch to both DLH or Mayweather's career.
