    People often make it seem like loosing a few pounds is nothing.

    I always say even if it's 1 weight class fighters are not just loosing let's say the 5 pounds from 135 to 130 or visa versa. The are often loosing 15-20 pounds.

    Which is why since ODLH-Pac was talked about I said it was ridicoulous to think ODLH could drop down to 147 without a HUGE sacrafice.
    He's gonna look like a corpse come weigh in day. Then he'll ballon up but the damage has been made by then.

    I can only see a bad ending here for ODLH whether in the ring or out of ring either way I see this as a loose loose situation for him.

    These type of comments will make PAC a genius for pushing and going after a DelaHoya fight at 147 lbs... Right?

    Uuuummm!!
    ODLH had announced he was fighting at 147 long before ANY opponents were named.
    I don't think the opponent had anything to do with it.
    IF ANYONE had anything to do with ODLH moving down it was Cotto as if he would have won he would have fought him.

    So Pac just happened to be at the right place at the right time.

    And what make you think Oscar will fight Cotto at 147? Oscar will make it sure a fight with Cotto will be at 154 (see Hoya-PBF) and have all the advantages in the world... Oscar will dictate all the conditions and preferably in his favor...

    You can just appreciate PAC's tough stand in asking the fight at 147 and 40% share of the purse...

    Do you think Oscar will fight Margarito at 147? 154? 160?
