Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: If I Was 28, I Would've KO'd Mayweather!

[thuggery]

Oscar should just be happy that his net worth towers over Floyd's, and that he's still Floyd's boss. That alone should be enough to not let these little disses get to him.

Oscar as fast as Mayweather

No advantages for Floyd, not even defense.

Wouldn't matter.....

Oscar was FAST. Floyd is more quick, like Camacho than he is, fast. Manny is FAST. SRL was FAST. Floyd is a reflex fighter who has excellent quickness. And his defense is a bit overrated as well. He is a defensive specialist, but his level of opposition has to do with him not getting touched as much. Whitaker is the greatest defensive fighter, ever. No one got hit less AND he did it against the very best. No?

Oscar, if you were 28, you will be wearing woman's lingerie!

Oscar wasn't FAST at all.

His speed isn't even close to Mayweather's. In any area.

Name the PRIME ELITE WW fight that May Jr had that DEFINES him as being TBE ?

Everytime you write this I'm going to ask you to do the same with Pac

[peplz]

He had a better jab and left hook.

I disagree. Floyd Mayweather's lead left hook is his bread and butter. Ive never seen De la Hoya knock his opponent down five times with his left hook ala Diego Corrales like Mayweather did. Mayweather's jab is and always been quicker and more accurate than De la Hoya's. Mayweather is the most accurate puncher in the sport. De la Hoya has never been that.

wow,,,,,youre way off. dlh had very good hand speed in his younger days. not quite on the level of floyds but definitely well above average and he was a much bigger puncher

oscar losing to floyd was already controversial and he was way past his prime...

Controversial... Okay and pigs fly also.

Oh I don't dispute Oscar had fast hands. He definitely wasn't slow.

Just obviously by as fast as Floyd.

Obviously he's a much bigger puncher than Floyd.
