Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Praises Mayweather: He's A Pioneer Who's Paving, Leading The Way - It's Admirable

Floyd's dad thinking otherwise.

Only because him and Floyd estranged at the time. Go look at the fight turn off sound. Get back at me then

DLH saying some nice things about FLoyd, but DLH said he thought Pac would beat Floyd easy in Pacs prime.

BEST OVERALL

MANNY PACQUIAO: I would have to say Pacquiao. I think his determination, his conditioning, his skill, his power, speed, footwork … he’s one of the fighters I most appreciated. Mayweather-Pacquiao would have been a lot different (if they’d fought) in their primes. Pacquiao would have beat (Mayweather) easy, absolutely.

Don't forget Floyd Sr. used to train Oscar while he and Floyd Jr. were going through it!

"I thought Oscar won the fight on points, threw more punches and was more aggressive. My son had good defense and caught a lot of punches but Oscar pressed enough to win the fight."

- Floyd Mayweather Sr.

Oscar was ring general and aggressor in the fight. He f**ked up Floyd's pace and gameplan with his pressure. Ring generalship and effective aggression are two of the official judging criterias.

The most pathetic thing about the fight is punch stats.

Compubox: De La Hoya connected on 122 of 587 total punches (21 percent), and Mayweather connected on 207 of 481 (43 percent).

Floyd bought Compubox like always and people still think Oscar beat him.

Oscar was THROWING a lot punches and Floyd was slipping and catching him in between the exchanges. Oscar NEVER landed the harder clean shots the way Floyd did

YDKSAB. Clean punching is just another criteria. Floyd had better clean punching and defense. That's why the fight could go either way.

If you score fights just based on clean blows, Byrd's 118-110 Canelo card against Bumlovkin is correct.

That would be a sight.... 2 greats in the ring owning a court in Vegas I'd actually like to see that happen

You and me both. I imagine that would also help the sport of boxing as well by default of its owners

It only makes sense. Its hard to do business in a hostile environment. Yes, it's always about the money.
