Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Whitaker More Difficult Than Mayweather

[Clegg]

And hes also broke, unlike Floyd Jr..
If I had to choose, I'd rather be a rich cherry picker legend than a poor respected legend.. But thats just me, to each his own

That doesn't really have anything to do with anything though.

If Pernell had cherry picked, he probably wouldn't be any richer right now.

de la hoya beat mayweather? when..the only punches that looked significant were those pitty pat body punches he landed consecutively that looked like they did no damage to may..to have that be a split decision was absurd

Whitaker would have never hide behind OSDT to duck Pacquiao...that's forsure.

it's funny because , i thought dlh lost to whitaker, honestly, i had whitaker by at least 2 rounds......

and yet i thought dlh could've eeked out a win/draw with mayweather....

a loss we sufficient, but his fight with mayweather was a lot closer to a win than his fight with whitaker......... imho.......fyf if you dont' like what im saying.....

[Evil Abed]

Is he talking about Jeff Mayweather?

JK.

Not much of an insult really.

That's like saying Wlad is strong, but he doesn't have power like Foreman or Tyson.

Just to be in the conversation is flattering.

kaczmaerk was blind to give dlh the fight & it ruined his credibility and PW was never the same when he went frm 135 to 147 ,,,he was only 5'6 and wass outeighed, reaced &heighted and Floyd would have dominated...SW would have look like a novice @ 135 vs Camacho...

Whitaker got robbed by judges against Oscar. Everyone knows that.

De la hoya is a tool. Thanks for the info oscar. Pernell schooled you in your prime, Floyd only schooled you when you were done.

whitaker fought the best!!!

It`s true whitaker fought the best in their prime,didnt cherry pick his opponents boxers back in the 90`s where fighters not ******* like pacquiao or mayweather who give a bunch of excuses to fight someone.

Floyd is the only fighter other than Hopkins who has continually fought CHAMPIONS and former champions. Floyd has fought 19 champions and former champions... he is 41-0...do the MATH. Thats half his damn career fighting top guys in the sport. Hate all you want but give him his credit or keep it movin..either way he is happy you use up all your energy hating him because it makes him richer and richer. And deep down you KNOW he is the best. Pac is 2nd. Even Vegas odds show Floyd a hefty 4/1 fav over Pac
