De La Hoya: "I Will Take Risks Against Floyd"

[eazy_mas]

well Mayweather is taking more risk because DHL has a puncher chance even if Mayweather won all 12 round maybe by the end of the 12 it could be game over.
and a wieght class that he is not familier with at 154

that is why you gotta give alot of respect for Mayweather to go up and face DHL who is a fast jr MW

funny part about Tiger Woods, but you never see if Tiger Woods got a bad season it really off in boxing is a different risk one loss and you need alot of time to regain you statue again.

yes it will, there will be some members who face the fact that they are wrong but yeah most of them will pretend they never had an opinion

it really does not matter if oscar loses, pbf got more to lose than oscar,
that's the questions what will mayweather say if he gets knocked-out,
what excuse he is going to bring in

[deliveryman]

I know Seattle is along drive for some of you but if any are worried you cannot afford the 54.99 price tag for the fight you are always welcome to fly/drive to Seattle to my house to catch the action.

Thank You.

lol,

they can't afford the $55, but they can afford a flight to seattle :P

yes that is another part of the game that makes this fight really exciting Mayweather is putting his O on the line with a wieght class he is not familier and a typical fast hand power puncher.

and the speed is you really cant tell so all Mayweather got is wits, hard work and skills to win

Oscar has 2 ko in his last 5 fights. Most recently Mayorga who lacks foot work, head movement, and every other fundamental. Now he is going up against a technical and gifted athlete who has footwork, great defense, and great fundamentals and yall expect him to land a homerun and win the fight. oscar is right in thinking he needs to take risks to win this fight. he can't win by outboxing him, out maneuvering him or outright strategizes against him. his only chance is a puncher's chance and he knows it and he is doing whatever he can to try an assure that, but at the end of the day he just doesn't have that huge punch or the skills to get him the huge punch at this time. Maybe once a upon a time ago, he had the skills to land that 1 punch but TODAY isn't a time ago. He won't be able to land and Floyd will shine brightest like he always does in all his big fights. 8 rds to 4!!!

I'm going to play Devils advocate and say Oscar tries so hard he gets injured sparrring with Moseley. Fight over!

so in your own words that means there is no excuse/no chance for floyd to lose......

Damn! If PBF wins. there's going to be a **** storm of Oscar excuses from all the pro Oscar members. I can read todays threads and see people already making excuses for him. He stand's straight up, he's too old, one dimensional, long lay-off, not focused on boxing, gift decisions, chin not tested and finally he's more promotor now. Is this going to be another James Toney situation where everybody who said he was gonna win over Peter disappears the day after the fight?

I won't be making any excuses... it known to everyone that Mayweather is the favorite to win the fight and with the corrupt DLH politics, I think it's even the plan. I'm always a conspitacy theorist and I think the plan is to cash the golden cow one more time and have PBF fight Mosley next.
It's hard to know whether DLH is all about his legacy now, or is he after the GOLD (Money)

However, others, like myself (Previously offering 1:5 odds on Mayweather, and my avatar) are just provoking the PBF fans to juice up the fight.
Kind of so that there is a competition and not just Mayweather Nuthugging on this forum.

My DLH allies can agree or disagree.

In reality I do of course want DLH to win and hope he does so...

[KoolWillie]

If floyd looses there no excuse and really if DLH looses there should be no excuse DLH says hes in great shape and hasnt felt the way he has in a long time... but im sure alot of people will make excuses

That's what I'm saying niceguy, no way Floyd loses. Oscar doesn't have what it takes, Floyd is lightyears apart from mayorga and vargas. Floyd just might be the best fighter that Osar has faced and that says alot. And Oscar just might be the best fighter Floyd as fought as well but I still think he makes it look easy with UD 8 rds to 4!!
