YOu probably have more to lose than him to begin with. It depend doesn't ODLH already have abs, and the rest. He will be losing some water weight for the fight guarranteed which could be 5 pounds so he needs to lose 5 more pounds naturally, and the rest water which isn't all that bad.Quote:

De La Hoya is in a perfect position right now.
......Floyd weighed in at 152.
Looks like ODH will be looking to out muscle him
Which isint very smart on Delahoya's part... I dont know what his frame will look like but he better have his conditioning down, I dont see Floyd getting much heavier than what he is now so he will still enjoy an overwhelming advantage in the speed and elusiveness category.. Bulling Floyd and trying to corner him is useless he just gets out of it and then counterpunchesQuote:

he's fit though, saw a picture of him weighing in with no shirt and he looks just as ripped as he did going into the Mayorga fight, i think he'll be 100% come May 5th, and right on weight without any side effects
Just to play devil's advocate... what if Oscar has already burned off the water and has nothing but fat to burn off. Oscar's settled into family life, got the new home in PR, it's gotta be more difficult to drag himself away from all that. Remember, when he steps in the ring it will have been a year and a day since he last fought a guy who isn't even on par with a sparring partner. And his last significant win was in 2002 against Vargas. Is ODLH really interested in this fight other than from a businessman's standpoint?
Nicely done....
For those that are asking about ODLH weight hes right on track, 10.5 lbs. in 30 days is right on.....
He doesn't wan't to over train or drain himself to low at the moment within the next few weeks he would have cut that down to to about a quarter and come in on weigh in day right at 154....
Or maybe he's having difficulty pulling away from that plate of chorizos...
I would agree if you had said 'Arroz con abichuelas' being that hes training in PR and thats a typical PR plate...... :)Quote:

I'd classify "that stuff" as the same stuff he said about Toney...BULLSHIT!!!!Quote:

Floyd is 152 and that doesnt surprise me, he will probably be around that come fight night...
If Roach can't get Oscar in shape then he's a useless trainer. Oscar is ALWAYS prepared and if Roach fucks him up then it's all on Freddy!!!
