De La Hoya: "Hatton Will Surprise Mayweather"

[Wiley Hyena]

what ?!?!?!? you must be nuts man I don't know how to use youtube but that was like the turning point of the fight oscar's best round with his defense making floyd miss badly, even larry, jim and emmanuel agreed to that

And, even at 60% of what he used to be, Oscar damned near beat Floyd.

ok can't say anything else that's how it went down in the history books,
i still think he did enough to remain WBC champ

Not sure how you can score the fight for Oscar, but its not crazy to think it was 7-5 Mayweather or maybe maybe a draw. Watching it live I had it 8-4 and the second viewing I had it 7-5. Going into the 8th round Oscar was winning. Then about a minute into the 8th Mayweather took over like a great fighter is supposed to and won every round until the 12th, which you can argue he won as well.

well you gotta go back to the old-school videos

Diffrence is his stamina! Name a time where Oscar was in better shape then in the PBF fight?!! There wasn't anything diffrent between Oscar now and Oscar back then!! PBF defensive skill is just up there!! Was it because Oscar coudln't land?? Oscar doesn't want to fight slick Out-Boxer. He is best against In-Fighters. If PBF beat Oscar what you think a young Whitaker would have done to Oscar?!!

I thought Mayweather won by the ever so slightest of margins, but a draw would have certainly been acceptable. Hell, to tell you the truth, I wouldn't really have had a problem with an Oscar SD. IT WAS that close.

whitaker was better then what floyd is today, I think you can't compare whitaker to floyd, whitaker had the fastest on his feet,

Chavez you could say was old! I am not being a hypocrite. Just like when SRL fought Terry. Chavez and SRL were both hit by not only age but the WARS THEY BATTLED. Oscar fights RARELY!! KEYWORD: RARELY! Thats why I was very surprised when I saw Oscar! He was in very good shape. Reason why I say i ain't a hypocrite was because I believe ODLH was the same age as Chavez duing they're fight as when Oscar fought PBF correct?? Oscar wasn't affected by anything it was same OL Oscar and since when did Oscar have good stamina??

What's with all the emphasis on "shape"? Holyfield keeps himself in tremendous shape, but that does not mean his skills have not eroded with age.

In Oscar's case, it seems that Oscar does not fight like he is hungry anymore. It's a lack of aggressiveness, an aggressiveness that he used to have. Oscar's now a promoter that likes to take a fight every now and then.

Man DLH needs to worry about that whore with the pictures of him instead of dwelling on his losing his belt to a WW. I can't believe that people can't see throught this BS and see that Oscar is still just doing what he always does, crying about his loss.

I always thought he was gay, but I never thought he was ***** untill now, singing the Ricky Hatton son at the presser and everything, riding on a Junior WW to accomplish something that he couldn't at 154; getting the KO on Mayweather.

Move forward in life, Goldie.
