COSIGN.... Damn....... it's nice to see a boxing fan that does not have tunnel vision when Oscars name is mentioned........Boxing rec can boost anyones "Sense" of knowledge. VERNON FORREST WAS ELUDED BY THE GOLDEN BOY. And DLH DID TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A SOFTENED VARGAS.He damn sure did. And avoided a rematch with Shane for years.
Not to mention refused to fight any top super welters. Before Tito ruined him, Vargas begged for a shot at Oscar. DLH said he would NEVER fight him because he disrespected him. Of course, he uses disrespect as the reason why he fought a shot to **** Chavez TWICE. But after Vargas got destroyed by Tito, knocked down and badly rocked by light hitting Wilfredo Rivera and stunned by his sparring partner, he became a good opponent all of a sudden.
For those who wonder why the Ring's Top 80 list had Tito well ahead of Oscar, you had to have been a big boxing fan to actually remember how their careers went after 147 and also what people thought of Oscar's career BEFORE 147. Some of you go on boxrec, look at it now and go "Wow! He fought them all." Not quite youngblood, not quite.Comment

No, I'm defending Dlh, you have the burden of proof lol. Make sure you tell us why they didn't fight. Facts, not opinions.Comment

Yeah, I'm well aware Dlh didn't fight Forrest or Winky. I also know Dklh was never scared of those guys, and I know that ike never fought forrest, Winky never fought forrest, Vargas never fought forrest...There are so many scenarios as to who didn't fight who. I'd never say a fighter at Dlh's level, Floyd's level or even Margs level would avoid fighters for any reason other than the money doesn't make sense. Money is the issue 99.9 percent of the time why fights don't get made.Comment

Margs fans will come out of the woodworks trying to prove Dlh is a coward. A damn shame. Is Margs going to fight Williams. Williams is asking for a rematch, and he won lol.Last edited by Boofdatruth; 08-21-2008, 05:18 PM.Comment

Let me smash this thought before it gets out of line lol. How do you know Dlh-Pac wasn't being talked about? Second, I gave you no reasoning about Margs not being a draw as having anything to do with Dlh not fioghting him so don't lie to the boards. Third, Dlh only entertained a fight with Mora. Until anything is seriously talked about, please...don't include him. And finally, I'm a Floyd fan. Is Dlh a coward to you. You ever box. What is a coward. Is a coward a 34 year olde man who fought them all, all of a sudden a coward. Dlh apologist...lol comical.
you gave me no reasoning? didnt you just try to justify a marg-DLH not fighting a couple of pages ago because 'he isnt a box office smash'? and for forbes? Why would DLH start getting prepped for a PAC fight if nothing was set in stone (as it is now)? And even so, what stylistic preparation would DLH get from Forbes for PAC? The styles are night and day…and for Mora, I don’t know if you jump straight to the boards and not read updates but Schaeffer has been mentioning Mora for quite some time now
For your coward queries, no I haven’t boxed professionally but I’ve laced them up and have a decent amount of rounds under my belt…a coward to me is someone who uses Roach’s comments as his reason in pursuing a fight with a former flyweight yet ignores Margarito calling him a cross-dressing vagina(?)…a coward is telling Margarito that he has unfinished business with other fighters and using that as an excuse not to fight…Comment
