    just a thought on oscar vs. floyd

    if floyd couldnt put baldomir away (who is a light puncher) why does everyone think hes gonna put oscar away? u think baldomir has a better chin then dlh? no way. i think it could be a SD for either guy. it all depends on who really shows up tomorrow night?

    Oscar is known for getting tired late in fights. I think thats where the TKO talk comes from. It wouldnt suprise me at all either. Also Baldomir is a human bobblehead. Hit him with a shovel and he'll smile at you.

      Styles, body attack, fatigue. Baldomir is more awkward than Oscar and that might've given Floyd some problems.

      Not that I think PBF will stop DLH (I pick 8-4 type UD), I'm just saying the reasons why it is possible.

      Hell it took a prime Ali 12 rounds to stop Patterson and an older Ali 8 rounds to stop Foreman.

      Things can happen in different circumstances and when guys have different styles.

        Based on the respect Floyd showed Baldomir during the pre-fight conferences (nothing mean or derogatory towards Baldo), I feel Floyd took it easy against Baldo knowing he could've finished him off at any time to the crowds disappointment, of course.

        I guess the crowd wanted Floyd to go in for kill and finish him off.

        To me, Floyd had a change of heart.

        Just MO.

          Oscar fades late and Floyd never tires.

          i think floyd could stop him, and will if he comes out with something to prove in round 1, then he could.

          And, He hurt his hand against baldomir but thats always his excuse. I think its because he got caught with a big left hand from the really slow baldomir in like the 5th round, and didnt want to get hit like that again.
