De La Hoya Hears It From The Boobirds

[Low Blow Armo]

the reason DLH is being treated like this now is because everyone has finally seen what he became late in his career which is a money making whore. i honestly dont say it to hate on Oscar because honestly i have nothing against him. The only fights i ever rooted against him were the Chavez fights, against Pacman,, and i was split when he faced Vargas. I had no problem with him going after Pac but i think thats when a lot of people realized he was just in it purely for the money now. People normally dont care unless you make it obvious and thats what Oscar did. He would have gained a lot of respect if he had faced Antonio Margarito but he chose to go another route. and when he got his ass handed to him well it just made him look pathetic! People hate fakes and thats the impression that DLH gives off!

Exactly. He pits himself against fighters like Pac and Floyd even though he hasn't done anything in the last ten years to warrant fights against these guys. Now he's gonna make a fight with JJC Jr that no one wants to see and make another cool $50 mil. **** him and I'm glad he's getting this hate.

picking on little dudes is not the best way to win people's respect

the De La Hoya I will always know n love is in my sig.
these last few years he has really let me down but I'm glad what happened
happened & hopefully now he learns his lesson & retires.
many people turned their back on him and threw him to the curb but you
know what, dude was a childhood hero of mine & brought me some great
memories I will never forget.
**** all his haters, every true fighter has his rise and his fall.
hate all you want but you can't deny that De La Hoya was one of the greatest fighters of our time.

It sucks to be booed, but it comes with the job of any athlete.

By the way, the article said he was 9-6 since Quartey. Actually, he should be 8-7 since the Sturm decision was a gift. Maybe, hopefully, he realizes he's only been a .500 average fighter the last decade and he realizes it is really time to retire. I've criticized Oscar a lot, but I also don't hate the guy and he made me like boxing more. I've rooted for him in the past and I just want to see him do great things with his promotion company now.

Growing up watching all his wars, all his fights with the best competition out there, I could never boo the man. Some people just enjoy kicking a man when he is down. I see ALOT of that on here. Taking joy in the failure of others.
