    de la hoya trinidad was crap

    havent watched the whole thing but saw the rounds where oscar ran and i was like "wtf why would you do that in the biggest fight of ya life..."

    and oscar-floyd wasnt terrible...we all knew floyd would box from the outside and while there were no standout moments it was a watchable fight overall

      Yeah I figured Mayweather would run his mouth more than the punches he threw. I did not believe him one second when he said he was going to Knock Out De La Hoya. I knew it would be the same fight as the Carlos Manuel Baldomir fight because I knew Mayweather would run around the ring. I had my money on Mayweather winning by decision; but I wanted De La Hoya to win because I can't stand the trash talking without backing it up. Plenty of more classy boxers just handle their business others talk trash and then go out and KO their opponent or at least make a good attempt.

      This fight was horrible, boxing made a mistake hyping it up as much as they did. While it made money today it will effect tomorrow's fights in a negative way as people will remember how terrible this fight was and not want to spend the money to watch again.

      Mayweather ran the whole time, sneaking in painless punches only to ****** the punch count to gain points. De La Hoya wanted to fight but couldn't catch up to the fleeing Mayweather. He was initiating all of the contact, if he would of had the same strategy as Mayweather the fight would have ****** much more. Mayweather said he was not afraid of De La Hoya's left hook but he avoided confrontation the entire fight. When 12 rounds are up and no fighter has been hurt, there was not a boxing match worth watching, let alone pay for.

      "I could see I was hurting him," De La Hoya said. "I was pressing the fight, and if I hadn't pressed the fight there would be no fight. I'm a champion, and you have to do more than that to beat a champion."
      wtf mayweather is the smaller guy do you expect him to fight oscar toe to toe its called being smart and he wasnt running like a coward he was boxing effectively on the outside

      oscar-felix was so bad cos both were same size and had exciting styles, even though i was young at the time my granpa said they hyped it up to be a war and it turned out crap

        I swear..people here didnt even watch the dlh-floyd fight

        floyd pushed oscar back numerous times to the center of the ring and just picked him off

        the crowd seemed to like it aswell

          I told all my casual-boxing fan friends not to expect too much out of Mayweather-De La Hoya.
