    DLH said he would KO Floyd. I guess you should hate on him too so he was just bull****ting. When did he ever even hurt Mayweather? Look at my sig and see how Floyd buckled Oscar's knees and he has no power at that weight. Floyd came closer to a knockdown than Oscar, which is pretty damn sad...

      DLH tried but he didnt have the tools. PBF didnt try even though he had them. Get my point?

        We already know Floyd isn't a big KO guy. If you were waiting for a KO you were watching the wrong fight.

        Oh yeah and Mayweather clearly won the fight. A draw would be bull****.

          So he buckled Oscar's legs without trying?

          Do you expect every fighter to be a KO artist? If you do, you know nothing about boxing especially if you expect that from a guy fighting 20 lbs. above his best weight...

            It was a high speed chess match. If you were looking for blood,go watch a Gatti fight.

            And **** that aggresor ****. Whoever is winning rounds is winning rounds. Throwing bull**** flurries that aren't effective doesn't win rounds.

                This fight was a draw in my opinion. Mayweather fanboys deny everything but mayweather is nothing to speaical. He could never knock out someone as strong as de la hoya. When ever de la hoya hit him, he tried his best to dogde and counter, or hold de la hoyas arms. He cant trade blows with him. Mayweather proved he was good at counter attacks with de la hoya and avoiding being hit. He got points for hiting him every once in a while, de la hoya was the main aggressor. Yet, de la hoya has pulled mayweather tactic before and lost some fights, biased in my opinion.

                In na rematch, mayweather is done for.

                  floyd won unanimously even though it was a split decison, get over it haters. give the man his dues, he beat a guy you guys claimed would knock him out. de la hoya never hurt floyd. floyd did hurt oscar a couple of times, like in the 5th round like my man sin said, and is showing. floyd also landed one of the fastest left hooks in recent memory in the 5th round followed by a hard right hand. floyd 1-2d oscar that same round and it stunned oscar also. oscar landed a nice right hand on floyd and floyd took it well and wasn't phased by it, and if he was, he never showed it.

                  also, if floyd went to the body more like i thought he would he could have knocked out a winded oscar. go back and watch round 11 when floyd jabs to oscar's body. oscar made this funny noise like he was hurt. and, right after that one, floyd hit oscar with two left hooks to the body, and oscar staggered some. floyd has a vicous body assault, and had he used it more, since people want to talk about oscar using his jab more, he would have killed oscar, especially seeing oscar winded.

                  for those guys who claim oscar wins in a rematch, wake up and come back to reality. you guys aren't that good in predicting outcomes in a mayweather fight, that's been proven a few times. floyd, if they fight again, goes to oscar's body more, and he stops oscar. that's a bold, but logical prediction on my part. just like floyd claimed, oscar was surprised by his power. floyd did hurt oscar a couple of times.

                      I do know about boxing, ive done it, and YES Floyd made Oscar's knees buckle(not in your sig but later in the fight when he dominated some rounds). So if he can do it, and he SAYS he will do it, then DO IT and dont be content with a half-assed effort. Like DLH/Tito, PBF shouldve been given the loss for being half-assed among many many other things previously mentioned by other ppl that I wont go into.
