I hope Oscar out-weighs floyd like 10-20*muscles of course* pounds more when fight night comes. So, Floyd will be eating Oscars punches all night long then.

true that but not that much though so he can match his speed

I want Floyd to win, and I think Floyd will win, but the only issue that worries me is the weight. Floyd will probably come in at 151-152lbs, and Oscar will come in at 166-168lbs on Fight Nite.

what's the 7-days limit? 5%?

[wmute]

I googled around it is 5%. which is between 161 and 162.

Oscar is in great shape

[Verstyle]

damn that weight ratio will be crazy.

[EliteSoldier]

is it going to matter if oscar comes alot over the limit? I mean, can they really stop the event from happening? If they do, they'll have alot of pissed of boxing fans and it wouldn't be good for the sport to re-schedule the fight. Or do they like fine Oscar and what happens? Does the show still go on? Or do they just piss off alot of fans by cancelling it then?

its not gonna happen. Oscar weighed in at 155 for Hopkins and 160 for Sturm. he was obviously in better shape for Hop, I dont see him blowing up: he is 158 now...

IF it happened, I tend to think the show would go on.
