Forbes 150, De La Hoya 150.5

I'll be happy if Tito just got down to 160.

 

Is it just me, or does Oscar look like he's sucking in his gut. ::

Look at the pained expression on his face.

"Hurry up with that picture, I can't hold it in much longer!" ::

 

Erratic, Cant Tito hire a nutritionist and drop down to 160 without any problems? His frame is small. Or is Tito just lazy?::

 

why does anybody buy this fight? they're the reason why bullshit fights like this get made.

 

It's on HBO not PPV.

 

:shit: War!

 

Wow, when was the last time an Oscar fight was on HBO and not PPV?

 

Hand wraps would have to account for at least 20 pounds.

 

There's no doubt about it, if tito and papa tito once and for all bit the bullet and did away with the plaster of paris wraps, tito could make 154.

 

for sure, for sure. Tito has looked soft at every weight above 154. He had a gut at 170, no way he couldn't come down to 160 at least if he laid off the fried beefsteak.

 

oh

 

Oscar sure has got a weird physique, especially when he's as drained as he is.:dunno:

 

It's just struck me how bad a choice of opponent Forbes is.

A former 130 pounder that hasn't really beaten anyone.

I mean seriously, what is his best win? Over little 5'2 John Brown?

Even Gatti has beaten better guys than Forbes has.

Why the fuck did Oscar choose Forbes? Surely his confidence can't be that bad after losing a competitive fight to Floyd?

No offense to Forbes, best of luck to him tonight, but not only is he small, he's just not that good.

 

Yep. Not only an also ran, but an also ran from 2 divisions beneath him.

 

Gatti in on 01.


Anyway, I saw the weigh-in. Fishnets came in at 150.5, then took his socks off and apparently was still over. :dunno: But I guess they knew Forbes had 400,000 reasons why he'd let it slide. So Fishnets just stepped on the scale again and posed for more photos then rolled out, cuz he runs shit.

 

Yeah, he does.


TFK

 

::

What do you think Oscar would have done if Forbes said he was pulling out unless Oscar shed the half pound? ::

Forbes is getting 400,000? When was the last time an Oscar opponent made that (comparitively) little?

How much is De La Lovesongs getting?

 

:: Fishnets probably would have been like, "Fine...somebody get Yory Boy on the line."

Yeah, I was shocked yesterday when I saw how much Forbes was making. Tubby on ESPN.com mentioned it in his chat yesterday. Not sure how much Fishnets is making.

 

I think he just doesn't want to make the sacrifices at the dining table.

His physical condition/stamina seemed fine against Jones. He just carried around too much weight on his stomach.

 

Bojado and D-Hops are both good wins. Forbes is also a legitimately talented fighter, albeit undersized. If Oscar's stamina doesn't hold up, Forbes is gonna work him on the inside. IMO Forbes is one of the most underrated inside fighters today

He's also pretty durable (at least <147) and puts in consistent body work. If DLH had a hard time making weight, he's definitely gonna get his gut checked tonight. Although, Forbes isn't known as a puncher, he's very accurate, especially on the inside and knows how to work that body.

Forbes : BELIEVE :warning:

 

give jake red hair and a beard and hes a spot on chuck norris
