Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Doubles Down On Fighting Canelo or Mayweather

[Tatabanya]

De La Hoya is already brain dead from all the stuff he's snorting. Perhaps getting hit hard in the head would restore some functioning, who knows.

Pac retired you and you made excuseś to explain performance now you want nelo?

Floyd rematch maybe but not nelo

He was beefing with Floyd at the time. He, like odh, is also a coke fiend.

A coke fiend and a purveyor of fine kitchen arrangements from a Beverley Hills location where when Oscar shows up, they ask him "What will be your pleasure today, Oscar? We have a brand new egg beater that spins both ways". LOL. Yeah, Oscar fades in fights and Floyd adjusts and Floyd won.

He’ll likely look like total crap in his exhibition and rethink his plans. Zero chance he fights a 12 rounder.

Really funny that some posts actually are talking about Canelo vs Oscar as a real thing. Never ever.

Canelo would hurt him at this stage, Floyd vs Oscar could be a lucrative exhibition but Floyd will never fight a real fight again.

As for all the people dogging him, the urge to box never leaves a great champion, you boys will never achieve a 100th of what Oscar has done and all you do is hate on him for wanting to fight, it's getting more and more like a girls gossip party in here than a boxing forum.

Floyd’s been beat before. Castillo 1. Cotto 1. Maidana 1. Oscar obviously. Maybe that guy that was a part time pump I forgot his name. Floyd’s decent but he has no heart. If you have no heart you have no creativity and no greatness. Let’s be honest Floyd was just a twitchy pot shotter that ran and hugged well.

Cotto 1 ? They only fought once . He did fight Castillo 2x and Maidana 2x . But back to Cotto. Mayweather fought a severely damaged Cotto in 2012. A Cotto who had been tortured and KO'd by Pacquiao in 2009 and a Cotto who was KO'd by Margarito in 2008 in a bloody slugfest. Mayweather's management was genius.

Fu#king hell. I mean Floyd vs Hoya is whatever, but can you imagine Hoya vs Canelo?!?!?

Jesus Tap Dancing Christ!!!

De La Hoya will die!!!

You said that Castillo landed 60 moe punches so I was addressing that. Now you're changing it to who you would rather look like after the fight, which is also not how fights are scored.

I'm a big Canelo fan so I don't think I ever said that Golovkin beat him just by landing 10 more punches.

I guess I confused you with someone else. Getting back to the round by round scoring, so I just looked up the punch stats for each round and total punches landed, Castillo landed 203 out of 506 total punches, for 40%, Mayweather landed 157 out of 448 total punches for 35%. Now, you say that it's a round by round basis, not total, let's roll with that, Castillo landed more punches in 7 out of 12, Mayweather landed more only in 4 rounds out of 12 with one round even punches landed, in that round Castillo landed more power punches, while Floyd landed more Jabs but it was an even round in punches landed, so if you want to give Mayweather that round, cool, that's still only 5 rounds Floyd landed more or even punches, even by your logic, how does that equal a win for Floyd? Like I said, Castillo beat Floyd and got robbed.

Must be nice, living in alternate universe. Where I'm from Floyd beat all those guys. Also, if you think DeLa Hoya beat Floyd you're a ****** who can't score fights.
