Mayweather will be surprised by dlh's left hook.

THREAD CLOSED.

I'm puzzled about folks insisting he fight toe to toe with Oscar.

I could understand if only brawling was allowed and boxing was illegal.

That's why it's called BOXING for cryin' out loud, folks.

Hell, if a boxer were penalized for boxing a fighter instead of brawling toe to toe, then... we could all say Floyd is in deep doo doo. Though, I honestly believe Floyd will at times stay in the pocket with Oscar just to prove to everyone that he can brawl just as good as he can box.

If Floyd can win by BOXING Oscar, and at the same time keep his face pretty,
then I say: "Box his ears off, Floyd."

lemme just tell u and tredh that floyd said he is going to stand toe to toe. if u dont know the reason why people say things maybe u should ask.

Floyd's got power.....TKO power not KO power.....when he gets them hands flyin, DLH ain't gonna know where they commin from and will prolly see bout 4 of em commin at him....Floyd is going to do what he does best in this fight though.......box and win.......

[mrdlazar]

Floyd tko 11 as I keep saying.....He will wear down Oscar and stop him.....

You can say it all you want, but if you think Floyd will ever TKO Oscar you need to wake up because Floyd couldn't knock Oscar out with a sledge hammer.

I dont think DLH will underestimate PBFs power. PBFs punches arent exactily like bee stings. PBF dont knock people out because he concentrates on defense and just landing and scores a point rather trying to make u see stars.
But ive no doubt PBF can hit hard enough to think to yourself i dont want too many of those in my face.

Did you ever think he said that to sell tickets so people can watch him box De la Hoya's ear off. The **** is about winning not doing what other people want you to do because all they want is blood and guts. The **** is called boxing the art of hitting and not getting hit.

It kills me when people say that Oscar is suceptible to the body. Oscar has never shown evidence of being weak to the body. He took a perfect body shot from a bigger man in Hopkins that is one of the best middleweights of all time. I don't know why people are so surprised by this, it's not that shocking. Doesn't mean he is weak to the body. Mayweather fans will cling to any little thing to try and hype Floyd more. Also Floyd alwasy says his hands are strong yet he always hurts them, not to mention he won't be wearing the pillows on his hands that he alwasy wears. When Oscar fought Mosley in his prime he was just as fast as Floyd if not faster with more power. It's not like its the first time Oscar has fought a fast fighter.

When you get knocked out or knocked down or hurt when you get hit with a body punch, it alludes to the fact that your susceptible to the body. Oscar got knocked out by a weak left hook by a guy who isnt known for his power OR his body punching.

you guys talk as if you really know floyd's power. he does have knockouts on his record. and he did stop gatti and sharmba mitchell in 2005, just because he didn't knock out or knock down carlos and zab doesn't mean he doesn't have power. i feel he will surprise oscar with his power, and he has been going to hand therapy so his hands may be okay. i feel floyd will destroy oscar's body and he may get the knock out. nobody knows for sure. we'll have to wait and see.

PBF is bluffing. He will be concentrating on speed as the key to win this fight and not power.
