    I had the first fight even through 10 rounds, I mean Oscar completely pushed Mayweather around all night, especially in the early rounds. Took advantage of the body and everything. Even in that 12th round exchange, Oscar got the best of Mayweather.

    And those supposed moments of Oscar almost going down, It really looked like Oscars momentum and balance are what really caused that. I mean after each shot, he'd get his balance back and immediately come forward lol, a guy who's afraid of being knock down, or a guy whos hurt would have jumped back. I think Oscar was just embarrased and kept trying to come forward, lol either that or it was Freddie Roach's one dimensional gameplan of "keeping the pressure."

      I am also willing to fight anyone for the millions these guys make!!

          oscar did well in that fight...

          many argue and say it wasnt close but i had it 115-113 de la hoya (originally) but since i didnt get a chance to watch it on tv (and watched it via sopcast instead) it ruined my ability to score it...

          once i got it downloaded to DVD i scored it 114-114 (a draw)...

          so it was a close fight no dobut.

          oscar has a chance...with floyd sr make it a good chance.

                get ready for a lot of hate lol.

                And I would be scared to death to fight Cotto for any amount of money, he's the kind of guy that will put you in an adult diaper for a few years with a couple well placed shots.

                    I'm glad Oscar is willing to fight the best in the division and all, but he's totally taking a **** on Forbes right now by talking more about every other opponent that is not Steve Forbes. I'd be fine with that as long as he would quit saying he's not looking past Forbes because it's blatantly obvious he is. I do think DLH beats him regardless and I'd rather see him fight Cotto before Mayweather if Mayweather isn't going to step up to the plate and fight Cotto.

                      Shows a lot of heart, but we'll have to see how much of it isn't just a load of crap. Notice it says "if he wins" then he will fight cotto in december. Floyd Sr. does not have the answer to beating Floyd, IMO. But I dont know, it's just too hard for me to take anything DLH says as anything other then an atempt to steal $55 from me to add it to his millions in the bank that could support him for 5 life times.
