    The De La Hoya Fight...

    Most DLH fights are exciting, they always feel like a big event. I remember Vargas vs. DLH was electric, great atmosphere. Even when Oscar is fighting a small time fighter, it still has a big fight feel. It looks like Oscar took training seriously, which is good. My prediction is Oscar within 8 by TKO/KO. I don't see Forbes making this a Sturm situation, though I certaintly could be wrong. I don't know alot about Forbes. But part of the reason Sturm was able to give Oscar trouble was that Oscar was out of shape. Oscar is in shape this time.

      This won't be like Sturm. What we need to remember is that in that fight De La Hoya was moving up in weight, and he didnt take his oppenent seriously. Its not like it was just another guy, he was fighting at 160 for the first time so that added to the complications.

      Forbes is smaller then Oscar, and cant hurt him Imo. I think Oscar will KO him, i don't see how Stevie can pull it off.

        Predicting a middle stoppage. I'd say KO7. Could be a major upset in which case i would be upset but i can't picture it
