    LOL do they teach you guys to answer like this to the media?


    I mean this is a classic response!

    At first glance PBF wins, but I wouldn't be surprised if Oscar won.

    You can apply it to any fight and get away w/o answering the question.

      Not necessarily, it would be incredibly shocking if like Chris Byrd beat Wladimir Klitschko.

        Right, but this is a 40/60 fight... where 60% believe it's PBF and the rest think it's DLH...

        Kinda pick 'em...

        where as Byrd had no chances.....

          I agree with Scully's assessment becuz it's a fight with two very skilled, competent fighters who both know how to win. There are a lot of fighters who really just don't know how to win, it's true LOL

            right... of course no one KNOWS the outcome.. but if you had to pick ONE, who would it be.

            I guess I should have asked the question differently

              My answer is similar to Scully's LOL, so I'll spare you. I'd go with Mayweather cuz he has proven he can win the big fights, well, as big as the fights he's been in. This is his first true megafight.

                  yeah, but who has Mayweather fought that is as big,powerful, and good as De la Hoya is?

                    I'd say that he is definitely one of the top guys, but Freddie Roach has shown a lot of good stuff as a trainer as of late. I know Colin Morgan and Lennox Blackmoore have been very impressive to my estimation as c*ltivators of young talent.

                      The BEST trainer debate is misleading... if a guy was the best trainer 2 years ago he is likely STILL the best trainer regardless of what he does with it.. if a guy can run the 100 yard dash in 8 seconds he is the fastest man on earth,,,whether he races guys or not..... some guys lately like Roach, Birmingham, etc have had big successes...but that still doesn't necesarily mean they are better or have mor eknowledge than Bill Miller in Detroi tor Roy Jones Sr,. in Florida. There are also very very knowledgable trainers,....that you have never heard of because they haven't gotten the big break yet... there are also top trainers that are terible cornerman and vice-versa. It's a very complex, and unanswrable, question.
