Geezous, I was nearly falling asleep in that match until maybe rd 8 and 9. Hearing that guy BOO them in the crowd was great. All the build up and hype to a sleeper match that really, everything up to rd 9, DID NOT MATTER. All it took was 1 punch that didn't even require wearing Oscar down since he didn't see it coming. Couldn't he have landed that in the 1st rd, and save us the trouble of watching 8 more BORING rds? Geezous. It's funny how heavyweights were the greatest to watch, now they are slow moving tanks that run out of gas fast, the featherweights are what are gonna end up taking over the boxing entertainment completely with their nonstop energy and battling from rd 1. :rolleyes:

The featherweights put on great fights but they will never take over boxing. Welterweights and middleweights have always been where alot of the great fights have occured. Hagler, Leonard, Duran, and Hearns have put on some great fights at those weights. Recently, Trinidad/Vargas, Delahoya/Vargas, and Hopkins/Trinidad. Trinidad/Mayorga is sure to add to the list as well.

Sorry you thought it was boring.

what can you say about the fight Winter? let 'em know your thoughts about the match. 'coz for me, i predicted it wrong. i thought DLH will win at or at least a draw due external factors. but since BH KO'd him, everything went wrong. :cool:

Summer, I thought what you thought. I thought Oscar De La Hoya was going to win. It looked like he would win at first. I was sad when he lost.

Both my bets won. I bet on Hopkins KO and JMM by UD. I thought right when I said DLH is gonna go down in the later round. I thought he was gonna go down in 10. I was 1 round generous to DLH in my prediction. I guess he wasn't tough enough to last 1 round any longer.

Too bad I'll never get those cash coz of the site upgrade. I wonder why they had to start from scratch at least with the cash. They were able to convert (port over) the user info and total post, but why not the accumulated cash?

Has it something to do with cheatings in the past?

Janno, what does JMM mean? I started liking boxing.

I know ,where did my 70k go? Oh well lets do it again, the fight started slow b/c I think DLH wanted to be in good shape come the later rounds, too bad he was hit in the liver. Damn that Hopkins,lol. OK fight but DLH needs to stay away from Middle weight

It was boring. I figured it would be and the only reason I saw it was because there were like 5 people throwing in on it. Tito vs. Mayorga will make up for it though!! DLH/Hop may have been a bigger fight but Tito-Mayorga will blow it out of the water excitement wise. I can't make up my mind who to root for but Tito is gonna win by TKO.

Its short for Juan Manuel Marquez, the WBC and IBF featherweight champ who evobosm (summer) calls "chicken" for not rematching MAnny Pacquiao and instead chose to fight Salido last Saturday.

No problemo! It's nice to see a lady like you who seems to be genuinely interested in boxing. To tell you frankly, there's only a handful of them that I know. Keep up the good work!

I didn't notice Manny had a bloated head. But I remember I saw this before in the old forum format and it surely looked funny to me. It looks like a caricature except that it isn't a cartoon drawing. It's cool, I guess. ;)

Hey big, I think you can convert a pix to cartoons in Photoshop. Can you try it and show us the result? I'm just curious if caricature really looks better in cartoons. Thanks.

Yep, Boring and anticlimatic.

you guys do relize this is the same sit
smaller fihgter moving up
Trinidad is just gonna be too much for mayo
he hasnt looked good since his first fight vernon
u watch i bet same **** will happen
trinidad is gonna be careful liek hopkins
and mayos gpnna try to make it a fight
but if it does become afight
mayos gonna be out gunned

Tito is a natural Jr. Middle/Middle and Mayorga is a welterweight. That is why I can't understand people expecting Mayorga to win. Same with Hop/Dlh. I think Hopkins should move up in weight since he has been fighting so many welters and jr. middles. If Hopkins moved up in weight he would most likely lose and thats why we probably won't see it happen.

The JMM fight is a sleeper and the ODH-BHop fight didnt live up to the hype. The supporting bouts fared better than the main events. Jantuah and Diamond did a good job showing what theyve got, hopefully, theyll be able to get more exposure in the future.

This was a boring fight.
They weren't boxing as much as they were waiting, especially Hopkins.
He was sizing Oscar up, but I don't think it was necessary to do so...he should have stepped in more with a stiffer jab.He'd have started outboxing Oscar earlier, had he done so.

Hopkins has beaten just as many, if not more, fighters bigger than him as he's beaten fighters smaller than him.

And again, him and Roy already came to an agreement to split 18-20 million dollars and fight several months ago. HBO thought it was too much, that's why when Merchant asked him about a future bout with Roy he said 'if HBO makes it happen...'. Roy admitted in an interview that it wasn't Bernard's fault that the fight never happened.

Wow, that's a cool avatar.

bump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopkins is the most boring fighter in boxing

I can't wait till Pavlik knocks that boring ****er out

bump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why...the hell...did you bump this?

I thought this was a good fight. It wasn't exciting, but I like watching it. Bhop pretty much just lets DLH try to get the advantage for the first rounds and then he starts slowly punishing him and the right hands Hopkins lands are great.

I had it 78-74 or 77-75 at the time of the knockout for Hopkins. I can't remember which one, but 77-75 for De La Hoya is ****ing ridiculous.

Hopkins carried Oscar for most of that fight. It was a prelude to their business partnership. I'm suprised more people haven't realized this.
