    Alert - so we know who hasn't had a fight before
    How long does it take to step on the scales?

    Here are some scales, step on them. Lucky if it takes 30 seconds of his time.

    And they do that weigh in well before the fight. HBO has them before the show begins.

    So that about at least 3 hours, so your warming up and wrapping hands theory gets blown out the window.

          He didn't get on the scales because he didn't want the public to know his weight.

          You're a mug if you believe anything different.

            Not everyone weighs in unofficially but the reason Floyd has chosen not to on certain occasions is the same reason Oscar didn't at times, they're divas.

            He has however weighed in enough times unoffically and done enough to 30 day weigh ins to know roughly what his weight is.

              no way. he's right on point. you don't want to be too light for too long.


              he'll look to shed the final lbs closer to the fight.

                or, he doesn't want people to know what he weighs.

                  No not really.

                  The only reason he stopped giving his weight is because Oscar didn't want to be weighed for their fight.

                  Was Oscar hiding his weight?

                  He followed Oscar's ways of being a diva.

                    Not worrying about fight night weights. He was 150 against Ortiz.

                      We can guess what his weight was, but we don't know, and Floyd wanted us not to know.
