    It is close enough. It is called an estamet. They teach you it in basic math.

    He could fight Ivan Calderon or Bobby Pacquiao at 154 or 160. You know, Oscar likes facing the biggest names.

    yeah, at his age he needs 154 at least and as FMsr said '35 aint too old these days.' he's near 5'11 and at his age fighting shape should be around 160 or so but he could probably safely drain down to 154 for a weigh in and then up to 160 something fight night. he looked allright vs hopkins in 04 (tho near 5 years ago) and he could probably do well at 154 and be decent at 160.

    I was thinking maybe a fight with Erik Morales at 160 might by good for Oscar or even against Hamed after all those are big names!

    I Have never seen such dejection and sadness from Oscar, Siting on his stool the other night he looked like he was contemplating suicide or something.
    His pride might give him idea's about going out on a high but the reality is he is done.
    He has plenty to keep him busy he's got a huge job on his hand's to replace all the top golden boy fighter's who are finished or nearly out the door, Give it up Oscar.

    i think he still has some left, just dont pit him against the slick ones. A brawler-stationary type of fighter would suit his style. and it should be at 154.
