De La Hoya: "Floyd Lost His Shot, Maybe Cotto/Pacquiao"

[Burner]

How many times do we have to explain this to your dumb ass??

whats with the name calling kid.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

How is that hypocritical? Cotto or Rito against DLH would be entertaining fights as long as DLH doesn't run. Mayweather-DLH would be another boring fight...

It's hypocritical because they were saying that Oscar was a semi-retired businessman.

If he was that for FMJ, how does he become a worthy opponent for Tony/Migs?

[rebmogul]

I don't care what he does outside the ring. He's always fought the best regardless. No one can dispute this.

I dispute it. He has ducked Winky and Margarito for years, among others. Who you fight doesn't matter, it is who you have beaten. Odh does not have one victory against an A level fighter, in any weight class. He has lost ALL of his biggest fights and has some very questionable wins, if not outright losses, against Sturm, Whitaker, Quartey, Hernandez.

Hell, he can't even beat Floyd and was barely able to handle Forbes, both natural jr welters.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

On the contrary, I think it doesn't matter how strong/how big the opponents are. Boxing is about excitement and money. If all of you are not interested watching Pacquiao-Dela Hoya fight, I won't mind watching alone in Las Vegas for 12 rounds of entertainment and remove any future speculation of what would be the result of a De La Hoya-Pacquiao fight.

Audience should not expect too much to the tune of boxers nearly killing other boxers just to prove superiority. They also have their lives to live. They are there to entertain and not to massacre.

Peace :-)

...says the people who would KILL Mayweather if he called out Pac.

Oh the **** boys said "it would be an entertaining fight".

I don't know why, but that struck me as hilarious.

He's not really a worthy opponenet, but at least there is a question there about the outcome, and the next best option is williams who will still be around after this fight. The Floyd-DLH, not Cotto/Margarito fight scenario was different because everyone knew floyd would win and Floyd never said he would handle his business at 147 after it was done. Also with Floyd gone that fight everyone is clamoring for instead doesn't exist for the Cotto/Margarito fight.

oscar will fight margarito, the sure winner over cotto. they stand almost the same in height and size.

Oscar ducked Margarito? others?

Explain please...

Winky became champ at 154 after De La Hoya left to 160, when Winky went up to 160 De La Hoya had gotten knocked out, semi retired, realised he wasnt supposed to be there, and hasnt fought at 160 since, that ducking claim is bull****t.
Margy and De La Hoya havent been in the same weight class at the same time either, and the only time Margarito moved up to 154 he lost. Among other, who?
I would say JCC was an A level fighter, he got taken against 2 A level fighters twice in the Mosley 2 and Trinidad fight so the questionable decisions go both ways and Hernandez didnt go to a decision he got tko'ed.
Floyd is in his prime while he is not and you forgot he started at 130.
