Mayweather to take a Dive against De La Hoya

[HappyBoxingFan]

I assume Mayweather would make it look good in the alternate universe where Happy's imagination is a reality

Of course, it'll look good.

I have never been so sure of anything in my life. It is the only way this fight makes sense. Watch how this plays out:

Everyone dismisses De La Hoya in this fight. "He's too old, He's washed up." BOOM! Mayweahther gets knocked out. De La Hoya becomes huge. You start reading about how De La Hoya was never washed up because he was never hit hard in his career. You start reading about how he's still one of the top fighters around. You start reading about... DE LA HOYA/MAYWEATHEWER III. Which would be TREMENDOUS. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Now. What about Floyd? Doesn't he care about his legacy? Yes. He does. This will make his legacy. First of all, history doesn't care that much about "0's." Fans care, but history doesn't. History loves great stories... great fights... (Mayweather lacks both at this point). This will give him the great story. Second, this will give him his defining trilogy. A De La Hoya knockout will legitimize all three fights. He'll be welcomed into Golden Boy and have a promotional career infront of him.

Call me crazy now. Feel ****** in September.

your a douche

No it won't. People will say, that Oscar is still boxing at a high level. The media loves the guy. They'll say he was never hit. He never lost anything. IT WILL BE A CHOREOGRAPHED trilogy... but people won't recognize that.

The media can say, and portray Oscar any which way that they want, in order to make it seem as if he's back. The "real" fans know the deal though. He was great in his day, but is nothing more than a promoter/part-time fighter who hasnt done anything signifigant in 5yrs, with the exception of a win against Mayorga.

Mayweather fans making their excuses already!?

Real fans don't make the legacy. Mainstream media does.

no way? if theres one thing foyd loves more than anything.. even his money possibly... is his "0" no way he gives it up for anything

I agree. Floyd doesn't need the money, at least not that badly. His giant ego would never allow him to go into the tank, especially for Oscar De La Hoya.
