Nooo,I think if Floyd wants to prove he is the man,by beating the man,then he should move up and Floyd fans can't use it as an excuse because he wants a title at that weight,and he is fighting a 33 year old guy who has had 1 fight in nearly 2 years so if anything,the Oscar fans wil have ever MORE excuses!!!

PBF will still win by decision, at any weight. PBF is just like Mosley, only younger.

He can't punch like Mosley and Mosley's power was greatly diminished at 147ibs, even more so at 154ibs, so Floyds power will be minimal at best at 154ibs. Not to mention his handspeed will be slower.

Oscar! Oscar! Oscar! Oscar still loses to Floyd by UD. Hate on that!

De la hoya has fought greater situations, but not a more difficult style.

I'd say Whittaker was the closest thing DLH has faced, and he was given all the trouble in the world even in his prime. Mind you Whitaker was slicker than PBF but he was past it and didn't punch enough or he would have won.
