    For those in favor of Floyd/Oscar II

    Read this post at another forum, and it made much sense!


    Can you people honestly tell me that you want to see Floyd run away from Oscar again?

    Considering Floyd "won" last time, all the intangibles are going to be decided by Floyd.

    What does this mean exactly? Well for one, and most importantly, the ring size is going to be larger than before.

    Why is this important, and what does this mean exactly?

    Well it means that Floyd will be allowed to stay in the center of the ring more often, will have more room to run, and will inconsequentially make the fight long and actionless.

    Oscar is too smart and too tough to get knocked out, and he did an excellent job last time of taking away the angles in which Floyd could effectively land his right hand; thereby, significantly decreasing the chance of a ko, which leads me to the following question.

    What person in his right mind would want to see a fight that is devoid of drama?

    Fact is, they already fought, and it's likely that the same strategies will be employed. You're not going to see Oscar turn into Chavez overnight. It's just not going to happen.

    So as FIGHT fans, not Floyd fans, but FIGHT fans, what is interesting about this fight?

    And don't talk to me about business. This isn't about whether or not it's in Floyd's best interest to take this fight. I don't give a **** about the business of the sport.

    That's none of my business, and honestly none of yours either. Do you ask your parent's how much money they make? I don't know about yours, but mine would tell me to STFU and probably slap my face.

    I mean, does Floyd ****in pay ya'll?

    EXACTLY........which brings me to my next point.

    Who should Floyd fight?

    Well considering that Floyd is the Welterweight Champion of the world, he should probably fight well......MOTHER ****IN WELTERWEIGHTS!!!!

    And who are the top two guys that not only have earned their way to the top of the welterweight division, but have the best chance of beating Floyd?

    Cotto and Williams.

    Not only that, but Cotto and Williams would be much more entertaining fights than "The World is Still Waiting," and it would be against WELTERWEIGHTS!

    For a guy that claims to be the greatest fighter of all time, he should be willing to take on the most difficult challenges presented to him.

    If Cotto is tied up, fine. **** it. Williams doesn't have a fight lined up and would BE MORE THAN WILLING to settle things in the ring with the current pound for pound champ.

    So what is it? Are ya'll Floyd fans just scared for your boy or what?

    Why the **** do ya'll wanna see a repeat of a fight that already happened?

    Don't ya'll know that sequels are usually terrible?

        I am not against a rematch, However I am against corruption in the sport of which I think this is just a business deal here, nothing more, I think its a set up fight for a third fight so they can maximize their gross profits here, my question for this fight really is, Does Sr come back to DLH? if so that will sell the rematch if not, ****, who is willing to pay for it?

          the thing i like about this fight are three things.
          first, that this are the biggest names on boxing, so that makes this a super mega event, and even though we know that is not going to be en epic fight, the promotion before the fight is going to get us all hype up again =P, and i love that atmosphere thats created before a mega fight like this.
          second, i liked the first fight, of course it wasnt like pavlik-miranda or vasquez -marquez, but i liked it anyway cos both of them fought on a very high level performance imo. the thing i didnt like about cinco de mayo were the undercards. those were really bad....didnt like them at all. the bautista one was ok, but the rocky juarez was awful. i liked the main event more than the undercards.
          third, if someone is going to beat floyd, i would love that it was oscar, cos he is one of my favorite fighters, and i think he can do it. =P...

          i just cant wait to watch 24/7, and watching all the thrash talk that mayweather senior is going to say, hahaha.....im sure that is going to be hilarious xD

                Amen, i'm sick of watching Floyd hype himself up as "Money Mayweather". I don't give a **** how much money you got, i watch you fight not count dollars.

                  Exactly! Some people here seem to be more concerned with "whats a better buisness decision for him" As fans, why should we care?? I watch boxing to see good competitive matchups. It should be none of our concern how much money fighter A is making to fight fighter B.

                    Normally the winner does get to pick everything for a rematch, but Oscar brings the money, so the ring might not be that big in reality.

                    Either way, **** it... I'm not excited for this ****.
