I'll bet the house money that Oscar retires after the Floyd fight.
I think if he was going for the easier fight he would pick Tito over Pretty Boy any day, Forbes was a tune up no more no less, a guy that Oscar could work on for 12 rounds, everyone knew that including Forbes, he is getting older unlike PBF he can't just take the year off before the fight. Agree he will quit after that fight though
PBF's not the KO threat to Oscar that Tito would be. Don't be quick to judge Tito on what you saw against RJJ. Oscar would've fared much, much, much worse. Difference is... Tito takes on ATG's at 170, at least 10 pounds over any weight Tito has ever fought at. Not a good move on paper. Oscar makes safer choices, picking a former 130-pounder to make himself look good.
Am sorry didn't those guys fight when they were in their prime? at 147lbs right?, did Tito knock Oscar out then? Oscar boxed his head off then went to sleep in the last few rounds and got robbed. You think Tito coming in a little bit fatter would make a difference?
