147-175 = 28lbs
130-160 = 30lbs
So roughly 30lb increase is not too much for SRL, even after a couple of retirements, but it is for Floyd. Cool story bro. Most Floyd fans spend their time downgrading GGG but if the fight is ever mentioned the weight becomes the issue.Last edited by PlasterWraps; 06-05-2015, 01:13 PM.

Oscar De La Hoya is the only other name fighter under his promotional banner, besides Canelo Alvarez, and he's looking to do everything in his power to save his company.
With the FS1 deal ending soon, and Canelo likely on his way to PPV-only bouts, Oscar is looking at the landscape, seeing that he's basically only got HBO/TimeWarner as a viable outlet, and doing the best with what he's got left.
"Hey, HBO, I'll turn Golovkin into the star that you want him to become (since I'm not throwing him in with Canelo, and Cotto is never going to take that fight) as long as you sign a 2-year, 10 dates deal with my company. Golvokin becomes your star, and I get a chance to develop some of my prospects into fighters that you might have interest in (JoJo Diaz, Sadam Ali, Anthony Ogogo)"
Pretty sure that Oscar is more than willing to sacrifice his body to save his company. He's honestly got no other choice.

Call me crazy...

Lalonde was the bigger man, yes? Did SRL still fight him? OK - thanks for coming out. Even if so, GGG said he'd come to 154. So oh look, Mayweather still at 24lbs.
It's ok to be afraid for your hero. I think he beats GGG, so I guess I don't drink the TMT kool-aid enough to feel that I have to defend Floyd. Hopefully he takes this last easy fight fight vs Khan then stays the F retired. So sick of his groupies.
