    I thought Oscar Looked Great...

    Oscar is 35 years old. He Never got tired in the fight. He Let his hands go in every round, threw good combos. Blocked alot of punches, he showed good defense. I was impressed, I think Oscar has a shot against Mayweather just as I did last year. Obviously I'd still pick Mayweather by decision, but you never know. Larry said Oscar can still make great music in the ring, I'd have to agree.

    I thought Oscar looked old and well past his prime, Forbes is a small blown up 140 pounder and he managed to be competitive with Oscar and mess up Oscar's face.

    Prime Oscar would've easily stopped Forbes.

      i agree as well man. forbes is a very game opponent. the comparisons to him, and gomez are an obvious sign that people have no idea what they are talking about. i will pick floyd by ud again, but you never know. as for cotto, i favor him, but oscar could pull an upset, and i would not be shocked. he is still a very good fighter, and dangerous as anyone.

        I loved how Oscar looked like he actually cared the whole fight. For a guy with his kind of money, he faught hard last night.

            Not to leave out the fact that in the 10th round he threw 80 punches when is the last time you have seen that from DLH?

                De La Hoya was going out of his way to stay relaxed. This was highlighted by the HBO commentary team. Thus some of the overt differences in his disposition. He looked good. Forbes is a solid competitor. I'm embarrassed reading some of the comments on the forum.

                  Forbes is not a bum by any means.

                    Co sign doggie. These haters just cant stand the fact that Oscar is the only true threat to Money. Only Oscar can bring Money the kind of guap that Money deserves and these fools is just jealous sittin at home in they studio apartments and they old ass macintosh computers wishing they were Oscar or Money.
