Thats a fair point, but I don't think that Floyd would come in at 160, I'd be surprised if he came into the ring above 155, he was 150 for the ODH fight right? Speed and movement will be his (PBF's) main assets in this fight, should it happen, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Floyd weight the same as he did for the ODH fight. Tito may not have tired in the past, but he has been retired for a while, so that may affect his stamina and he'll surely be rusty. Tito has also been frusterated (Winky fight) by defensive-minded opponents, and he didn't know what to do to adapt. Once again, I like Tito, but I think Floyd schools him.
Youre probably right and I agree with your prediction but just to play devils advocate , I dont think Floyd has the power to discourage Tito . He couldnt break an egg down at super feather so he punches are guna be proper weak up at middleweight .

As I say Floyd would just play it safe and take it on points but i'd love to see a trademark Tito left hook land flush on its target and knock Floyd unconscious
