Comments Thread For: De La Hoya on Mayweather: He's Not TBE, I Beat Him!

Floyd arguably has 3 loses.

And its safe to say had he not missed over 10 fighters who were threats , he could have arguably 5 to 6 loses

Floyd has no losses and if ODH, SHane, Manny had fought him in their prime instead of waiting, he still would have no losses.

They cant stop him from controlling the fight you ****** , he wins you lose but youre too ****** to see it lol .

Calling someone a ****** when your IQ is lower than 99% of the Nation is asinine

[SeekDaGreat]

Well, to be fair. Floyd Sr. is also on record saying that DLh beat Floyd. So DLH himself is not the only one.

Fuuny, when Oscar was involved with promoting Floyd , he said that Floyd was possibly the best ever.

There was no indication that Mayweather was past his prime against De La Hoya, Hatton or even in 09 against Marquez as his physical abilities were still as good as ever.

do any of you guys know what prime even means for an athlete??? Floyd was faster, younger, threw more combos, better reflexes and 147 was never his best weight

its the height of your physical powers, height of your know how and applying it and also as far as boxing it includes fighting at your best weight

Being 30 and fighting at 154 for the first time isn't exactly prime Mayweather


Prime Mayweather was at 130-140 from 00-05 was Floyd at his best, championship experience and a supreme athlete....he small at 147 and up fought most of his fights their 30+.....that's not his prime even though he performed at a high level

He might not have any losses but he should easily have two draws at best against JLC 1 and Maidana 1. The (fixed) score cards were atrocious for those two fights. But I get it, two guys that can't speak a lick orfEnglish would not get that justification, it's business.

you can tell that some of these people didn't start following the sport til recently


no one was jumping out of their seat to fight Mayweather before 2007....He wasn't a ppv draw and he was more risk than reward.....from 1998-05 when he was Pretty Boy Floyd he called everyone out near his size
Mayweather was calling out DLH and Mosley back in the 90's...was calling out Casamayo.even called out Naseem Hamed at a catchweight of 128 after he beat Corrales....Pretty Boy Floyd was hungry and didn't care who he fought

If you think Floyd lost those fights, that is your opinion. I think he won them both. Floyd is allowed to win close fights too. As for the others, there is a reason they refused to fight Floyd in their primes.

Maybe some day they will be honest about why they made this choice.

Until then, lets hope fans that do not like Floyd treat him the same way they do GGG when it comes to fights not happening-place blame where it belongs.

Castillo
Maidana
Oscar

Will all have arguments to saying they beat him .

...

Castillo 1 -- Floyd lost, but he was badly injured and he won the rematch...
Maidana 1 -- more like a draw...
Oscar -- I don't know... I'll rewatch it...
