        Forbes has never even been knocked down, let alone stopped. Also it is very hard to stop someone who is defensively minded like forbes was. Oscar did exactly what he needed to do and it was a good tune up fight for floyd.

        I don't know where all this criticsmn of DLH is coming from, he is one of the best, most accomplished fighters.

        Look at the quality of the opposition on his slate. No one in boxing can compere when it comed to consistently fighting the best. Yet he has one tune up fight against a former world champ (who was smaller but was meant to simulate floyd) and he gets slammed by a load of people who too easily forget what he has achieved!!!

        IMO

          When has Forbes ever been stopped or dropped? de la Hoya won every round.

          Mayweather should of stopped Baldomir in 6 because he is a bum.

            Your only as good as your opponent let's you look.

            Your taking away from Forbes, everyone is saying he was **** etc - i thought he did well for a light punching little guy who'd moved up.

                regardless Dela shouldnt have came out of the fight looking like he did. TOO EASY to hit....

                  Floyd was MOVING UP fighting a guy with an IRON chin..

                  Dela was fighting a guy who had no business above 140.

                    Oscar fought recklessly cuz he had such a huge size advantage, so he took a lot of shots he shouldn't have. Decent performance but nothin special. He did what he had to do short of scorin the expected KO.
