These are my thoughts of Oscar De La Hoya. Hopkins was so big and tough, every fighter Oscar De La Hoya fights from now on will feel easy to him.
Thoughts on De La Hoya.

I thought DLH proved once again he is true class, even though he lost it was an even fight until the body shot in the ninth.
Not only did he prove his pedigree, but he showed that Nard is finaly starting to age. DLH still has a career ahead of him, Nard maybe 1 or 2 fights depending on opponent.Comment

You speak highly of sturm, He showcased a great fight on the 5th of June...
You preach that he would beat bernard hopkins, Well do you think he would in hopkins prime???? Just curious?
I havent seen much of sturm except in the De La Hoya fight and he looked pretty good. I would like to see him in some better matchups
Ikeke and Taylor are 2 guys I would REJOICE over Felix Sturm fighting.Comment

There is no way Sturm has the capablities to beat Bernard prime or present. He gave Oscar a good fight but that was Oscars first fight as a middleweight and Oscar didn't even train seriously.Comment

STURM gave DLH a thorough beating. He was cheated out of an EASY victory. He administered far more punishment to DLH overall than Hopkins did. You haven't the SLIGHTEST idea about DLH's preparation for the fight so please keep your yapper void of lame excuses for Oscar. STURM is going to jab Hopkins' head off and make him look OLD. The end.Comment

STURM is Hopkins' MANDATORY!
P.S. Has Hopkins really ever had a "prime"?Comment

Good point on hopkins prime lol...He has a few shotty fights and then one megafight and then some low caliber opponents again and another megafight....
Hopkins stated he wants to make a 20th title defense and then go for the big fights....Hopkins has never been one to avoid mandatories, will definatly be interesting if the sturm fight came off. I would hope hopkins wouldnt lose just to see jones vs hopkins though.Comment

Excuse me but it doesn't take a genius to realise that Oscar was not happy with his performance OR his preparation for that fight. He knew he could have done better and the rest of the world did too. Sturm put up a valiant effort with his jab and i give him credit for it but that wasn't a focused Oscar. I don't care if you think i'm making excuses, that is a fact. In all honesty i thought Sturm had JUST won that fight but only by a point or two but at the end of the day the judges get the final decision. Sturm looks promising and he may put up a challenge in the middleweight division BUT only when Bernard retires in my opinion.Originally posted by NichtGeflechtenSTURM gave DLH a thorough beating.

STURM won the fight 8-4 in rounds. My old man who is a complete Delahoya FANATIC called me during the last round to tell me Oscar got trounced. When they announced the decision he was shocked and agreed with the crowd who screamed "BULL****"! Oscar couldn't focus because he was getting a ramrod jab stuffed down his kisser every 5 seconds. STURM is going to beat Hopkins handily over the distance.....Comment
