Is Oscar's performance tonight making DLH/Mayweather II more interesting now?

i think dlh intentions were to fight the whole 12 rounds.. not to exactly win by KO..
dlh said he wanted to PRACTICE.. it was clearly a sparring session.. i love forbes man.. props to the doode..

He looked the same DLH who has been given fits/beaten by slick fighters. And no, he's not a better promoter now compared to being a fighter!
His boxing career is nearing the finish line, and what a career it has been. His promotion business is kinda ****ty, if you ask me. Who does GBP have that they've groomed themselves and made a star out of? None. B-HOP, Mosley, MAB and DLH all have been boxing stars way before GBP was founded(easy money). But, DLH has alot of time to cultivate it and someday DLH may belong w/ the Arum's and King'sComment

I dissagree with everything you just said...sorry.Oscar looked good. No denying that. I just didnt see a VERY brutally dominating DLH. He didnt have to knock him out, but he needed to look ultimately superior or fighting like the legend that he is. Was his performance tonight impressive to make DLH/Mayweather a more attractive fight?Comment

I thought DLH looked impressive enough. He didn't gas and he was using his jab. DLH looked better boxing than he did trying to pressure.Oscar looked good. No denying that.

How did DLH look good? Considering the opponent he was suppose to walk through Forbes. If you think he looked impressive then you give too much weight to the broadcasting crew.
If any other top WW fighter struggled that way tonight against Forbes.....Cotto, Margarito, Mosley, Williams, Quintana the broadcasting crew would've been very critical of there performance. Look what they did to Mayweather when he fought Baldomir.
Forbes was hand picked, fundamentaly sound but thats about it. Not really fast, not really slick, no real power, not really high work rate, not really strong even at 130lbs, less reach, shorter, physically weaker.Comment

Who puts too much wieght on broadcasting? Why would I let them dictate the way I feel? Or even let them form an opinion for me?
He wasn't spectacular, but he wasn't that bad. Aside from a few exchanges were he was hit cleanly he won every round. He was active as well. I don't give a **** about the rematch and in no way am I using this to justify a rematch. From what I saw he did what he was supposed to do.Comment
