If Mosley comes in at 150 at weigh-in, would the fight still be on?

    who walks in first... mayweather right? (im talking about the ring walks) - pretty obvious because its for mosleys belt... but ya know, Money is just such a massive start i can't really imagine him coming out first anymore

    Yeah thats why he met Hoya at 154 and conceded every possible advantage to him.

    154lbs, glove size, ringsize, purse split, and few others things I read about but cant recall off the top of my head. This was a subject that was very much talked about before the fight how Hoya had stacked the deck against Floyd to give himself every advantage.

    I'm guessing the fight would still be on. Oscar outweighed Floyd by 4 lbs. at their weigh in. Shane is already in tremendous shape as he was training to fight Berto. If he came in overweight it would be because he did it on purpose, not because he was struggling to make weight. In that case, it wouldn't make much of a difference. The fight would still be on, and Shane would pay a fine and lose his belt.

    If that happens it will give fraud what he wants and that is a credible excuse to back out of the fight,but that wont happen cause Shane will make the weight as usual.

    I dont think mosley will have any problem, i think he was a bit out of his dept at 154 anyway

    well 154lb was oscars weight where he was defending his title, glove size were standard 154 gloves, ring size im not sure and purse split obviously oscar was gonna get the lions share (how is that an advantage anyway?).

    Mosley is always in good shape and always makes weight. This will not be a issue.

    Shane could make 140 if he needed to (although that wouldnt be healthy at all considering how much he used to blow up at lightweight) Sahen will make 47 spot on.

    He wouldnt be able to without being on his death bed. I remember when Shane fought Ceballos at 135. On fightnight THE DAY AFTER Shane rehyrdrated back to a whopping 159lbs!! I have it on VHS to prove it. Shane fought the latter end of his career at 140. How he made 135 il never know. As he was NEVER out of shape and was always a solid fighter in between fights. Shanes been at 47 for over a decade.

    OMG i never thought of that!!!

    What if the judges are sick and they dont show up!?
    What if The Camera man get drunk and cant focuse the camera right!?
    What if the bathrooms dont work there!?
    What if the seats are dirty!?

    This fight is not getting cancelled over 3 lbs even if it did happen. Mosley is also always on target with weight.
