Firstly your argument isn't advancing it's just deteroiating. After outboxing the **** out of Felix ****ing Trinidad he cruised and stayed away for the last four rounds. Thats not cowardly. He was in the ring with a huge power puncher. You concepts of courage are seriously flawed. You call someone a coward who was taking punches from felix trinidad. My god, get off your power trip and show some respect.Comment

First off dip****, I'm not one of these blood and guts fans. Don't be making assumptions because I don't agree with you or Mayweather for that matter. Delahoya was a coward in that fight. This is why boxing fans hated WBC's idea of announcing the scorecards every 4 rounds. Because fighters like Delahoya would purposely stay away if they knew they had the lead. I appriciate the Whitaker's, Mayweather's, Toney's, Winky's and Hopkins's.Firstly your argument isn't advancing it's just deteroiating.

Delahoya didn't show any of that during the last 4 rounds and yes he was running his ass off, plain avoiding any confrontation because he thought he had it in the bank. I know plenty of boxing purists who appriciate boxing techicians over brawlers and none of them appriciated what Oscar did during the last 4 rounds. No sweet science behind it, just running away.
You can do that in sports like soccer or basketball, letting the clock run out, but this isn't just a sport, it's also prize fighting.Last edited by Vladimir303; 08-23-2008, 08:58 PM.Comment

De La Hoya is a warrior, and he will be remembered as such.
In his prime, De La Hoya was always willing to fight anyone, including much bigger men like Bernard Hopkins. He started at lightweight and Hopkins started as a light heavyweight!Comment

I dunno why Wrights name wasn't on his list during the 90s maybe he isn't a household name yet back then but for sure Vargas won a debatable SD with him but Oscar made Vargas look like a noob and owned him pretty well. While Vernon was still on hibernate during those times and was overly protected until the early of 2000.Comment
