Tank’s head looks like it belongs on a much bigger body, he looks like a bobble-head figure.

As the supposed legend many people claim he is, De La Hoya lost whenever he's faced a class-A opponent (and sometimes, he actually lost fights the judges gave to him, ask Ike Quartey and Pernell Whitaker). To be fair, I think he was robbed vs Tito Trinidad, but his running around the ring in the final third of the fight was still one for the ages. Rigondeaux did the same vs Casimero and was (rightly) crucified for that.
As for Oscar the man... I disliked him immediately, especially that carnival mask fake smile printed on his face. It was just my instinct, later confirmed by many facts of his life. Did you ever read Tim Kawakami's book about him? Essential reading to understand the character. There you can find all the seeds of his future, including various betrayals of trainers and loyal staff, and much more. Plus, he's either a Mexican or an American, depending on need and audiences. Ugh.
Then, after he's become ****** rich, he buys himself the most important boxing magazine (The Ring), firing the journalists who didn't write what he wanted (ask Nigel Collins) and keeping the ass-kissing ones.
As a youngster, the guy used to make me vomit. Luckily, the day came when Pacquiao humiliated him. Now, after all the fishnet & kitchen utensil stuff, I almost feel sorry for him, he's just pathetic.Last edited by Tatabanya; 03-10-2023, 08:34 AM.Comment
