            This helps Mayorga and his career.. After he wins by TKO and looks pretty decent at SMW look for him to call out Taylor, Pavlik or Bute and then fight one of them. Him v. Pavlik would be a good fight. Bute would demolish him.. Taylor would probably win on the cards.

              I don't think it is laziness.

              Age, combined with the steroids, have changed his body. Dude ****ed up his metabolism by staying down at 154 for so long.

              Now, if he has one carnita he balloons to heavyweight.

                Dude, Mayorga left his chin in the ring after the Trinidad fight.

                If Oscar can brutalize him, imagine what Pavlik would do.

                  both fighters will look like **** in this one, i think mayorga should come in at around 160, much fitter than he would be at 168 and try to take vargas into the later rounds. fatty should be dead on his feet by r9

                    Oscar slowly and tactifully took him apart bit by bit in a way that was 10 times more elegant than Mayweather/Gatti. It was a style's fight, and Oscar was the exact perfect fighter for the 2 color-rubix cube that is Mayorga.

                    Mayorga/Pavlik on the other hand would be a bit more interesting. I think a punched-out Taylor and Mayorga are a dead-even heat. That bein' said, Mayorga would last at least 6-8 rounds. That's 6-8 rounds of him throwing punches that could end the fight at anytime.

                    Let's see how well he does against Vargas. Then decide. I think the 8 extra pounds are really going to help Mayorga, personally. He is a heavy bag puncher, those extra pounds are going to bring extra grounding/anchorage/leverage. Helps his power and his ability to take shots.

                      PLUS Mayorga fought at 154 as early as 2000. That is almost 7 whole years to figure out how to add 14 more pounds, in a good way. I think he is going to look fine. I mean he knows he has to look good, right? He is STILL just now coming off the loss to Oscar and he is getting a damaged goods opponent that could still lead to big money if he wins the way he should.

                      edit: I hate to keep adding but the dude might finally have his head straight now. Ever since he cost HIMSELF the Spinks fight (and 3 belts) he hasn't been the same fighter. This is his first chance with the odds really stacked in his favor to get back on track. Come on, don't diss on the one side of this bout that actually still means something outside of future blood swapping, steroid, and AIDs stories.
