    What was wrong with him?... Nothing. He was against Hopkins; what did you expect? Him to actually win? Please.

      Your a boxing fan right GURU???

      When two marquee names like Oscar Delahoya and Bernard Hopkins are involved in a fight and a real cult fan like yourself brings up the word FIXED...you are doing a big diservice to the sport!

      Oscar and Nard...in a fixed fight...cmon man do you really believe that???

      Let the casual gay ass sport fan talk about boxing and it being phony or a fixed sport...cult fans like you should no better!

        i didnt say the fight was fixed... i'm just saying the arguement that oscar could have made money fighting anybody doesnt rule out that the fight could have been fixed... look at this way, oscar coud get millions for a real fight with a tough opponent or get millions in a fixed fight with a future business partner... i'm not saying it was fixed, but IF it was, there is certainly enough motive there for it...

          The simple fact that you leave the door open to the fight being FIXED is bull****.

          Sure your not saying the fight was fixed flat out but your certainly not saying the fight wasnt fixed and coming from a cult fan that is just as bad!

            the shot is questionable only for the fact that right before it happen, you could hear someone in the background yelling out over and over again "bodyshot, bodyshot"

              sorry, but with all the circumstantial evidence, i cant honestly say that i know for sure the fight wasnt fixed... maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, i dont know... thats just my honest opinion...

                What circumstantial evidence??? (There is absolutely ZERO evidence to suggest the fight to be FIXED, yet you are still on the fence...interesting)

                You are acting like it is a 50-50 deal here???

                If we are to use your logic then just about every fight should come into question which is exactly what our sport needs!

                  there is no real evidence, just circumstantial ones(odd KO, uneventful prior to KO, business partners afterwards)... its kinda like a 23 year old model marrying a 70 year old millionare, you cant prove she did it for the money, but there's room for doubt..

                  i have the same opinion about the "wlad was drugged conspiracy", there's no evidence, but given the odd circumstances, it could have happened

                    Comparing the Oscar/Nard fight with a 23 year old chick and a old ass millionaire is not even close to the same...AKA if this is your reasonng then you do think the fight was fixed because a 23 year old chick is with an old man for the money period.

                    Just come out and say the fight was fixed, then tell me who killed Kennedy and why.

                    Ridiculous!

                      come on scap, give it a rest..
                      The whole thing was planned from way in advance...
                      Watch Hopkins get nervous when DLH is fighting Sturm...
                      The whole thing was a flake!

                      Not sure about all the details, but perhaps this was the scenario:
                      1- DLH makes money on Hopkins/Eastman AND DLH/Sturm
                      Pays the judges for the STOLEN belt (Sturm)
                      2- Then he HANDS the belt unifying Hopkins, keeps the money for the fight as for the shares in the GBProd and makes Hopkins partner thereafter.

                      I mean those are horrible accusations, but it's just a "what if.."

                      All I can say and I'm a HUGE DLH Fan... that whole schema was too fishy
