    Default Oscar is struggling to make 150

    "I'm struggling and starving myself to make 150. I have to work to make the weight and I've already been on weight for a couple of weeks so we're getting down to hard, tough training. That's what Floyd Sr. does for me. Our relationship is always a good one. We just had that little glitch in that last fight, which is understandable, and now it's just back to business."


    with his age and inactivity this could spell serious trouble for oscar
    "Very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts. I hate that, I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter, to step inside that ring, you have to have guts" Oscar De La Hoya

    Counting on the Golden Boy to beat Mayweather in the re-match. C'mon De la Golden.

    he'll make it and rehydrate easily this is just a ploy i suspect to generate more interest in the fight by getting people to think forbes has a chance which he doesnt this is a "cake walk in the park" as the loquacious pbf would say

    Forbes would be crazy to not take this fight, not much more you can do in boxing for your profile than to step in the ring with Oscar, plus I'm sure he's getting paid well.

    What is the difference between God and Oscar Dela Hoya.

    God does not think he is Oscar!

    REALLLY? I would have never guessed it...

    I hate to toot my own horn here but......

    I told you so. I kept posting this OVER and over and over and over.
    Since last year when the annoucement/rumor went around that he'd fight at 147. I posted that ODLH would not and could not hit 147 anymore that he'd be a corpse if he did get to that weight. Now here we hare about 6,7 months later...

    I agree Mick. I never understood the logic of Oscar moving down in weight. It makes no sense at all. Oscar is a big enough moneymaker that any fighter would gladly move up in weight to 154 to face him. I have no clue what Oscar gains by going to 150 or 147.

    Spot on Sweet... It especially looks bad that Floyd Sr. was talking about Oscar looking better at 147 then 154.

    It is a ploy if he was really struggling he would never announce it publicly. If it is true then he is the idiot that gave his only advantage away to Mayweather.

    Didn't we expect this?

    This is either pre-fight hype to even the odds and cause some media coverage OR that ODH is really having trouble which he may honestly be having but hell he makes 154 easily, other fighters can shed a good 10 pounds before a weigh-in so why not De la Hoya?
