    That's what we have those 2 guys in your avatar for. We need less PPV.

      I guess alot of folks are just plain 'ol content with watching a side show. That ain't boxing folks. DLH gets the the money, the fans, the "SHOW". Don't know why so many can't seem to see that.

      The real fights to be made are with Trinidad and a match with Cotto. They will come in to "take on" DLH, none of that running crap, get payed, and join up later. Trinidad ain't getting in the ring to spar with DLH...too much pride for that ****. Cotto...got too much on his plate to take a payoff, and will definately come at DLH. If Oscar wouldn't be so greedy (70/30 split) these would be fights worth watching.

        What Mayweather say? Quoting here; "It's not a black thing. It's not a white thing. It's a green thing.


        Oscar will lose again and still make tons of money and be the fan fav. No one will start to diss him because he's the good guy. The Golden Girl. J/K. Everyone will dog Mayweather and make up reasons, any reason, why he lost.


        They'll make more money and that will be the end of it.


        They will fight again. Sure they will.
        No one wants to see a rematch after watching the first. I sure as hell dont, The biggest fight in ages and it doesnt bring the exitment it was built up to be.. That night I should have paid to watch my grass grow and I would have got a better deal!

          i don't need to see a war in the ring everytime either, but every floyd fight is the same, half running and half dancing. and if both fighters are hyping the world about toe to toe and the fight of the century they better make it happen. i for one don't think floyd's the best in the sport at this time, his legacy just started as far as i'm concerned. he needs to stop all that bullshi# talk about retirement, and keep fighting. if he comes back and beats mosely, hatton, cotto, margarito, and a few others then his legacy won't be denied anymore. and then the critics should shut their mouths, untill then, he should shut his and humble himself, fight his ass off and ern that right to be called the best of the best

            Not true. And Floyd doesn't care what the critics say. He only cares about what HE thinks. He is the best fighter in the game. Or was if he stays away. When Floyd was asked honestly straight up he said he would win. He wouldn't say honestly he would stand with Oscar.

              I am actually more appreciative that Floyd is fighting BIGGER guys and putting himself at greater risk by fighting at 147/154.

              Would you prefer that he went back down to 135/140 and just dominated the bustas down there? My guess is that you would level alot of criticism fdor that also.

              PBF can easily make 140. At JWW, he is just as big yet faster and more skilled than all the other guys. It would be blowout after blowout. DO YOU REALLY WANT THAT?

              Zab Judah, however, needs to go back down to 140.

              Alot of guys are hiding at artificially lower weights (hatton and margarito, I'm looking in YOUR direction). I respect Floyd for taking the risk of moving up continually.

                no, it's true now. in his early part of his carreer he would be explosive and hard hittin, but now it's mostly dancing and runnin, he knows if he throws too hard he's gonna break something. and yes floyd does care what fans and critics say, that's why he got all choked up after his baldomer fight, remember that? i don't know, he has mastered the speed and defense part of the sweet science, but he won't throw like his early fights. you are right on him moving up to weights he don't belong in, his hands can't take it.

                  He got choked up because he was saying he's retiring. I don't call it running. Obviously he has something left cuz he's still winning.

                    WOW you are a blind floyd fan. lolzz, you remind me of me, only i'm the same way about julio cesar chavez as you are about mayweather, almost. on the realz, i watched that post fight confrence, he was choked up cause he was'nt getting the respect he thought he deserved. in that fight he did'nt deserve any kind of respect, that was a shameful showing, thank god the undercard with areola was good or i would have felt bad for my friend that bought that ppv. it's more then obvious he has something left, he has'nt givin anything in a long time so he should let all that talent out and prove everyone wrong, cause if i'm not mystaken, there are more floyd haters, then fans. that's mostly in part of his big mouth, but then you have the real boxing fans that know about the sport enough to see that he's all footwork and tap tap points fighter. then you have boxing fans like me, i like it all and have nothing but the truth to say about what i see, and try not to blind myself with the fighters i like. but i'm gonna throw this out there, there are fans like yourself that will make up any excuse for their favorite fighter, just cause it's your fighter. all i have to say is look at what you say, are you blinded, cause from what i've seen you are.

                      How do you know why he was choked up?
                      Baldomir had no chance to beat Floyd. How was it a shameful showing? The first half of the fight even when Floyd was there, Baldomir could barely touch him.
