Instead of making a thread about whether or not Oscar MUST get a KO to win (which has already been done 8 different ways I'm sure) - I'll have to bump this one in saying that I believe that is the case.
I think Oscar has very little chance of winning unless he catches Floyd.
Very, very little.Comment

This question is irrelevant. Sure, Oscar may have the heavier punch. And sure, maybe Oscar can take more punishment being the bigger of the two. That seems to be the logic behind the argument. But does it matter when he can't land a punch? Floyd's outstanding defense and speed overshadows Oscar's heavy punching offensive advantage. Whether Floyd can truly hurt Oscar is irrelevant. Can he beat him? Definately. To hit and not be hit is the key to winning on the scorecards.
Need I remind you, this was the same argument pre-Gatti-Mayweather, and we all know how that turned out.Comment

You are the first person that I recall that feels definitively that De La Hoya has absoultely zero chance of landing.. Interesting.Comment
