“Fighting Words” – Oscar De La Hoya: The World Awaits… Again

[pelonxsoldier28]

It's obvious you don't know how to score a fight very well. The fight wasn't even that close, 8-4 is fine and 7-5 is pushing it a bit. May didn't even leave second gear, I mean the motha****a took rounds off. Who takes rounds off in the biggest fight of your life?

everyone has their own opinions on this subject, and noone scores the same way, unless you're rooting for that certain fighter, which is obvious, i know who you were rooting for, i looked at the fight with an opened minded view, as did many others and have come up with my prior result each time. so basically you're saying you're right and everyone else is wrong? so in actuality, you're biased for your fighter's score.

You picked DLH to win...the bolded could be said about you too after reading some of your pre-fight predictions for "The World Awaits".

If Oscar want to Retire. the scenario is already set .

Oscar can fight anyone he want, after all he is the Golden $$$$$ boy, Right.
But, i believe that Oscar should fight the two figters he want to fight in his heart to finish his career. in this order.
May 2008- DLH vs Miguel Cotto
September 2008- DLH vs. Mayweather -rematch.

Happy new year to all.

And Oscar congratulations with your new little girl.

Is it me or a lot of floyd fans don't want to see Cotto-Oscar?

Oscar needs someone very beatable for his May fight for him to be able to make another fight in September...That's why I think he still has not sign the Cotto fight. If Hatton would have beaten Mayweather, Oscar would had sign that **** in a second.

Just becasue the judges scored it an SD, doesnt mean it really was an SD.
Everyone knows that fight wasnt nearly that close.

Call me crazy but I scored it for Oscar. PBF impressed in the Hatton fight, but not against Oscar.

[Tyson2k7]

I scored the DLH vs. Mayweather 7-5 for Mayweather.

I scored the DLH vs. Mayweather 7-5 for Mayweather.

That was a fair score. I suppose I just didn't appreciate all of the magic that Mayweather performed that night. To be honest I just about lost my lunch when Kellerman called it a "virtuoso performance" by Floyd. It was a close fight in my opinion, either way. I believe Oscar could have walked away with it (he was) if he just continued to throw his ****ing jab. I saw very little from Floyd that night. I almost never score a fight for guys that fight that way. I'm obviously in the minority but I'm fine with that.

If they fight again this year, I believe Oscar can pull out a decision.

Well Kellerman is NOT an expert. He's just one of us (fans).

And the Floydfans tend to get impresed by a few elements of boxing that are very peripheral to the sport. He slipped a few punches on the ropes and they say he owned somebody.
