1. Oscar's experience will be a deciding factor. He'll use that in his favor.

2. They're fighting at 154. How Floyd got talked into this one, I'll never know. Oscar always seems to get his way. Chalk up another advantage for Oscar.

3. Floyd's tailor-made for Oscar. He's not exactly a puncher, so Oscar can afford to trade.

4. And now... the Mosley factor. Training with Mosley will definitely finish tilting the balance in Oscar's favor.

Like I've said in previous posts..... Oscar is a savvy businessman, with an uncanny sense of timing. AND, he's very careful with his legacy. He's not about to take a fight without all the chips being on his side of the table.
That is key. Mayweather hasnt beaten an elite fighter since he fought at lightweight (I guess you could argue that Baldomir and Judah are "elite" but i dont think either is an A+ fighter, Oscar is). Now, he takes a fight at 154 against a slightly past his prime legend. The one thing that ive noticed in his fights at Welterweight is that his speed is not what it was at Lightweight.Thats expected. But now hes at light middleweight where he has never fought. Floyd would beat Oscar at welterweight, but im not so sure about 154.
Oscars main disadvantage is inactivity, and the possibility that he might get old overnight which imo couldhappen
