    Anyway, yeah DLH had nothing to lose.. but he also has and carries around enough money to not fight Mayweather. He can still make a giant payday against anybody.. Mayweather can't do the same. Anyway, what does it matter? They both didn't gain anything in this fight and they both missed out on the payday.. America would not have payed to see the second fight anyway and that's why it's good it wasn't made.
    No matter what you say...

    DLH VS. Floyd would have been good for boxing...It without a shadow of a doubt would have been the most watch and Paid for fight of this year...

    Boxing and MMA included....


    The hardcore fans might not have like it but so what...the hardcore fans is not what drives the sports to the heights that MEGA FIGHTS needs...

    the causal fANS do....

    And this fight with the same promotion...Would have been great exposure for Boxing..

    Boxing like it or not has competition now....

    More people know Chuck Liddel then Miguel Cotto and Margarito Combined
    More People Know Kimbo Slice then Miguel Cotto and Margarito Combined

    That's the Problem WITH BOXING RIGHT NOW...
    We need a American Star.

    DLH and Floyd are the last two fighters in Boxing with Mainstream Appeal that super-seeds MMA....

    So of course DLH vs. Floyd would have been great for boxing...
    because those two are the only 2 fighters in boxing that the mainstreams knows right now.

        It is the truth thats why...
        Dlh vs. Floyd would have been great for boxing as a attraction for the sport.

        BOXING NEEDS FLOYD AND DE LA HOYA....

                      i cant agree with this. first of all this exposure you are talking about is in no way helping boxing. if anything it will detract casual fans once they are overhyped with promotions and 24/7's, pay 60 dollars, and get treated to the most boring fight they have ever seen. hell they can watch the ultimate fighter on spike for free and see more action from AMATEURS. and you contradict yourself when you say that floyd is a bigger draw than oscar because if that was the case you could not say that floyd would not fight cotto because he wasnt a big draw. oscar can fight anyone and sellout but floyd needs megastars? does not sound like the bigger draw to me.
