Can Oscar really make 147?

[freedom213]

sorry to say but i think DLH is dreamin if he thinks he will ever step back into a ring weighing 147, sound off please.

for who??Hatton?? never gonna happen

I have always thought and still think that the talk of De La Hoya going back to 147 is just that, talk.

DLH will fight at jr. middle or maybe even a catchweight between WW and JMW, but not at 147 anymore.

its 7 pounds...and a big 7 pounds especially for someone his age and body figure.

it would be easier to make the weight if he was younger but i still think its possible to do...not to permanently go back to 147 BUT for one fight im sure he can do it...but not for more than one fight.

he would have a good power advantage if he took one fight down at 147 no matter who he fought...he's got pretty good power now at 154...so 147 would only make him even stronger...

i dont think he will go down to 147 for one fight...but if he really wanted to im sure he could...then balloon up overnight back to 154 (at the very least) probably more like 10-12 pounds...

Depends on what his walk around weight is now. He was always a strong Welterweight, this was probably the weight he should have tried to stay at. I don't think he can, he's not as athletic as some like Shane Mosley and has ballooned out between fights in recent years.

[Undefeated]

Nope.. No way he gets to 147.

[SkillspayBills]

If that's what he wants what makes you think he can't make it, he is a professional.

I don't see why not.

He's not a big boned or muscular guy so he wouldn't have to atrophy anything. I could understand saying someone like Lacy making 154 would be literally impossible because that's the truth. Each of his arms weighs 154 lbs.

Oscar has a sunday driver's build like Tito. They aren't physical specimens by any means and the weight they have around their torsos when they walk around is all flab. That **** comes off easily with starvation.

Of course you put it all back on put I don't think he's going to make many more future stints at 147 considering he has at most 2 or 3 fights left in his career.

He'll cut calories and make 147 for sure.

I don't care too much if he makes it or not. He can fight guys at 154 and 147. I don't think he'd beat Cotto, or Williams at 147.

What big name would he fight? Hatton will lose in December. Margarito? Clottey?

The only reason I dont think he will make it is because in his fight with Tito, he said he had a lot of trouble making the weight. That was 1999...
