Fluid ounces are not to be confused with ounces (mass). Pound is a measure of weight or mass. 1 ounce (mass) is approximately 28.35 grams.

Fluid ounces are a volume measure, equal to approximately 29.57 milliliters.

The only relation between mass and volume, would be if you have a specific substance of known density.
