its like this if ur in oscars position
fight ur opponent at 147 where he has abetter chance but u also have will have ahuge advantage
fight ur opponent at 154 where ur oppenent has alot less chance but u have an even greater chance then at 147
so it comes down does he wanna fight floyd close to fair
or does he wanna make it as easy as possible for him to winComment

I think Floyd will be as happy as Oscar to fight at 154lbs because that will make him the champion of ANOTHER division if he beats Oscar.
If he beats Oscar and takes the WBC 154lbs title he further cements his legacy and means he's been the champion at 5 weights from super feather all the way to light middleweight.

If Oscar really weights 149 I wouldn’t be surprised because if you look at most of the fighters that he has struggled with, they have all been faster than he is. This could be a way of him trying to cut down that huge speed difference. Oscar will be stronger than PBF at either 147 or 154 but PBF wont fill out 154 and will be much faster than Oscar and that is what he may be trying to avoid. Oscar also struggles with crafty fighters like Bernard and Floyd is a crafty fighter with speed. If Oscar really weights 149, I think that it would be a very smart move.Comment

I agree. I could see Floyd from like 149-151 in the ring and Oscar at 165-171. I honestly believe that he could outweigh Floyd by 20 pounds in the ring but its not like we'll ever really know because you know Oscar wont weigh in before the fight because he doesnt want to look like he beat a much smaller manOriginally posted by Left2bodyIf the fight is at 154, I dont think PBF will weight more than 150lbs come fight time. Even for the Zab fight he weighted the Exact same amount at fight time that he did in the weigh-in, 146lbs.Comment
