Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Doubts Confidence Of Tank's Team; Ellerbe Blasts Ryan Garcia's Promoter

[Combat Talk Radio]

So did that coward Ellerbe say this to Oscar's face ? Hell no ! He waited for the interview when he knew Oscar couldn't get to him.Weak as F

Oscar could have bowed up, but he remembers the verbal beating he got from Floyd. Him getting in Leonard's face would have resulted in something physical.

...all of these cats defending Oscar, who forced Floyd up to 154 with pillow gloves, yet was willing to drain himself down to 147 tog fight Manny.

Ok

Oscar just tried to get under the opponents skin, and it looks like he did. Nothing but gamesmanship

After Floyd beat Oscar, he still continued to give Oscar business by letting him promote his next 9 fights. At the time, Hatton, Marquez, Cotto etc weren’t Golden Boy fighters.
Oscar still confined to criticize Floyd. When Floyd fought Connor, Oscar belittled that fight and criticized Floyd for fighting a MMA guy. A few years later, Oscar desperately wanted to fight Connor.

Oscar did put in a reverse-rehydration stipulation for Floyd because he wanted Floyd to come in heavy.

Oscar is going to lose Garcia too. Mark my words.

Your Link doesn't prove anything

I forgot about that one. Still not as bad as what Tank is doing though.

Yeah it is, because B-Hop was 36 years old, weighed in at 156, and still KO'd Oscar with a body shot! LEVELS!

[Bronx2245]

Let's not pretend going up in weight is remotely comparable to the comprise and detriment of forcing a fighter to come down in weight AND implementing a rehydration clause. Oscar did force bhop to meet him at a catchweight but atleast he met him in the middle,nor did force a rehydration clause which was the contention of Oscar's point.

Let's not pretend that Tank has not been getting killed for fighting 126lb. fighters at 130, and 130 lb. fighters at 135! Also, B-Hop was 36 years old at the time, and he started his career at 160! Oscar is a hypocrite...period!

Sounds like the better negotiator got what they wanted

And this is what interests you as a fan of the sport?

So you're comparing bringing up one of the greatest fighters to ever live, a single division to a weight we all know Mayweather rehydrates to.....to Tank bringing bringing up the like of one dimensional Leo Santa Cruz and a washed up never has been Gamboa??......nothing more to be said here....

Everyone on this board keeps saying Oscar made Floyd go up to 154 to fight him. That’s not true. Oscar was the WBC super welterweight champion at the time and Floyd wanted his title so it was Floyd decision to move up in weight and attempt to become a 5 division champion.
