manny weighed 142 and he most likely stay at the same weight or weigh a little more come fight night. but the real question is what will oscar weigh in during the fight? he weighed 145 (i dont know how me made it 2 pounds under the limit) i say he comes in around 154lbs. i think he will want to weigh significantly more than manny.
I voted +156lbs, but it could very well be around that weight itself. Oscar won't likely do an unofficial weigh-in because he won't want people to see that, but this will likely be the case.
Considering he has weighed 147 for atleast a month now, it's safe to assume he will be below 150, since at the weigh-in he was at 145.
According to Thomas Hauser Oscar has always refused to use HBO's unofficial fight night weight scales so we'll never know anyway.
these predictions are a can of worms - and especially with a fighter who is ageing and been fighting at a higher weight for the past few years. i think crazyboy's 154 will be pretty close because it fits with the concessions oscar has made to get down to this weight after not being here for a few years - but also because we know oscar is a "i know i can do this ..." fighter without really knowing that he's a step short of who he is in reality. oscar's a good fighter, a hall of fame fighter - but he's never been a 'great' fighter. i think he'll take a lot of good from the floyd fight and he'll see pacman as a fighter has less technical skill (which is right) but more 'biff' (which is also right - if he carries his weight), and he'll back that. oscar can really get an early KO here. but he'll look very foolish if he does and you'll see his eyes darting around the camera when he's being interviwed like a con who's got no ground to stand on.
152. He was actually 3 lbs. less than Mosley, who was much more new to WW than DLH. Mosley was a very big LW, but I think that still surprised some people.
