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

[eazy_mas]

I really hope Oscar can knock Mayweather out cold. Dont like Mayweathers bull**** talk all the time, sure he is a great fighter who no doubt will enter the ring in best possible shape and as a favorite. But his attitue and trash talk is becoming irritating.

ooh well that is boxing some people trash talk and people love them and some dont.

maybe he does it on purpose because he want to sell more ppv by making himself the villian and DHL is the hero who is going to shut him up but actually i with Mayweather because he is a symbol of hop and hardworkmanship and if he win it shows with hard work ethic and goal you could reach your goal

There's a saying that goes something like; "Live this life like you have before - but you're trying not to make the same mistakes.."

I think Oscar is that kind of guy.

If anyone can do this he can.

I wish him the best.

nah as floyd says delahoyas too stiff moving forward just like corrales if he takes risks he'll end up like corrales did

DLH has a much stiffer chin than Corrales and that was at lightweight. DLH has taken some solid shots at 147 & 154 and didn't flinch. No Floyd will not KO DLH.

If life can grant me one wish, it will be seeing Floyd on the floor after Oscar has connected with a monster left hook. Probably will it not happen, but i wish. To much trash talking from Mayweather, and beside Oscar is much more handsome

Even before Oscar De La Hoya signed a contract to fight Floyd Mayweather, Jr. on May 5 in Las Vegas, he was told by many that Mayweather's speed would be a real problem for him. Oscar plans to prove the critics wrong when he matches Mayweather's speed in the ring. During a recent conference call with the media, De La Hoya made it clear that he will take risks in order to trap Mayweather. [details]

De La Hoya has a relatively high risk attacking style, that is why he became popular with the fans. With the height and reach advantge he should aspire to keeping Mayweather on the end of his jab. As Mayweather is so fast, De La Hoya will have to incorporate a bit of lateral movement with the jab, to make it doubly difficult for Mayweather to counterpunch him.

it's gonna be an interesting chess match, it's all defense, smarts, technique and boxing skill, it's gonna be a classy fight a little bit of everything

Delahoya shouldn't have to say "I will take risks against Floyd". That's what you are supposed to do against Mayweather. If you just stand on the outside like so many other fighters you are going to get your ass kicked.

If Delahoya gives Mayweather space he will get picked apart like every other fighter who gave Mayweather space.

one of his gameplan would be for the first 3 rds let mayweather pick his shots let him come-in and try to time him, after the 3rd try to stiff the jab constantly for maybe 3 more rds, about rd 7, 8, 9 work the body hard, around the
10th, 11th,or 12th rd we will see floyd chillin on the canvas
