I don't think anybody got hurt. And De La Hoya's hook didn't land once. The counter right by Floyd was a stun through speed, but nothing serious I don't think.
It's unnecessary at any length and in very poor taste. We are all aware that it wasn't the smartest move to drive over the speed limit. And what? It happens. This fuckwit actually manages to come off as gloating. Let the man rest in peace, he paid the ultimate price for his actions.
The DLH MAYWEATHER fight didn't help boxing gain a wider audience, most people felt ripped off after the fight, saying it was a joke. If the fight had have been exciting and everything we all love to see in a good fight, If think the sport could have picked up a few extra fans but instead it people felt robbed. Thanks Oscar, "I'm doing this for boxing". Imagine if everyone who watched last weeks fight watch Barrera - Morales instead. They main stream would be back for more.
But the sport will never die, there's too many die hards like us. But, we need a new star, Oscar is old and never lives up to his hype. As much as I hate the NAZ's of this world, the fight game needs them.
LONG LIVE BOXING.
I think Oscar tried everything that he could. If Floyd had traded, as he said he would, it could have made for a great fight.
The equilibrium will return, I have no doubt about that. It is a just a natural fact, the Darwinian Theory of sport. Boxing is the only combat sport that features periods of actual beauty. You know what i'm talking about. The day I truly became a boxing fan was when I saw a clip of Ali slipping Terrel's shots by milimetres. Now you see Floyd lying on the ropes shifting his body and deflecting punches as Superman would bullets. No other sport can claim to be the 'sweet science.' Boxing is beautiful. UFC is not. The equilibrium will return.
man, Joe picked the wrong opponent! Manfredo Jr will beat and expose his ass. What do you think?
Manfredo has the momentum and he's been great! Calphagot on the other hand went 12 rounds with his last EASY opponent. And the Lacy victory was overrated because Vitali Tipsy (unknown n00B) beat Lacy more convincingly than Calzaghe did, except he got robbed!
i am going to get back to you when calzaghe smashes him, and i'd like to see if you have the character to accept that both your bias and boringly predictable slander were misplaced
