      comparing 200 going down to 165 is different than 154 to 147.

          Roy was a lot older than Floyd, and was clearly past his prime at 35 when he finally lost for real. Someone like Roy especially, who relied on speed and reflexes other than sound defense. Once the speed faded, it was only a matter of time before he got caught.

              Well ANYONE can lose, just ask 42-1 favorite Tyson. It was a lot tougher on Roy's body making weight at 175 after putting on all that muscle to fight heavy. Floyd only weighed 148 fight night against Oscar, so making 147 is not an issue.

                Especially when the 147/154 move didn't involve gaining or losing a single pound.

                  don't take a look on a weight look at the happening as itself
