    Who fought the more HARDER fights? De La Hoya or Mayweather?

    I say De La Hoya. Hoya always fought THE BIGGER GUYS. When is the last time Floyd fought a guy bigger than him? and in his PRIME?

          Floyd has NEVER fought a bigger guy, just taller, and that was DLH, who was past his prime. But his history of fighting smaller guys may finally catch up with him, if Pacman beats him.

          Just like Mike Tyson, who made a career out of beating bums (in exciting fashion, at least), but was beaten by a bum in his last fight. Floyd will finally get beaten by the smaller man which he preyed on throughout his career.

          The finals pieces are settling in place, guys.

            Not bigger just taller? so taller isnt bigger? LOL Floyd has been the smaller man in almost every fight since gatti. You mustve started watching him fight with JMM.

            Corralles,N'dou,Judah,Baldi,DLH,Mosley= All bigger.

            LMAO changing the definiton of bigger.

                Delahoya was also brought up carefully, but nothing compared to floyd. Floyd is still being ever so careful up to this point.

                  How was Oscar brought up carefully? He started fighting decent opposition before he even reached 20 fights. In fact if I remember correctly, it was his fourth career fight where he fought Jeff Mayweather, who had around 30 fights on his resume and over 20 wins. I'm still trying to figure out where this myth came from...

                  Without a doubt, Oscar's had the harder fights. He fought everyone. But I do not think a prime Oscar would have beaten Floyd. He struggles against slick, faster guys. Just look at how much an old Sweet Pea made him miss. Now imagine that with better footwork, more speed and more pop.
