Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Predicts Luis Ortiz Crushes Deontay Wilder

[vitali1999]

Wilder is not wild enough to fight anybody with a record like that. 23-0-20. Now if this guy loses then Wilder would consider fighting him.

considering i dont think oscar has ever been right in one of his predictions ill pass on his judgement on anything

Oscar is an ATG who was the cash cow and face of the sport, and fought everyone, and didn't take losses to fellow ATG's until he was past his prime, except fo the Tito robbery. Don't disrespect greatness.

i think he did too i also think he thought all his guys would beat mayweather as well and he thought without a doubt canelo would school mayweather

Gimme me a freakin break man, Oscar is thier promoter. You do understand the concept of promotion ie selling a product don't you ?

Great post, greens sent.

Oscar was and still is a dude IMO, I've always got time to listen to him talk, his honest opinions and insight.

I've got to think SOMEONE here is smart enough to know that Oscar isn't trying to predict anything, he's just promoting. He's a salesman now and he's just doing his job. It's not any reflection on what he actually thinks about these guys.

Ahead of Himself

Oscar I'm a huge a fan of you and supporter of your company.
You have rebounded greatly with your company this year.
But like usual you are getting WAY TO AHEAD OF YOURSELF.
You and Haymon will NEVER WORK TOGETHER.
So you know these guys will won't meet in the ring anytime soon.
But if Ortiz gets past Jennings you can make a legitimate argument that Ortiz's win is just as impressive of a win as Wilders over Stiverne.
If not more. I think Jennings is better than Stiverne.

[killakali]

That's not true. Oscar is on record saying he won't work with Haymon. Bob's lawsuit prevents him from working with Haymon or else the whole suit would be invalidated.

wrong again. Rances Barthelemy and Denis Shafikov are fighting on 12/5 on Showtime because it was mandated by WBO. The last few years they have only done fights mandated by sanctioning bodies and Haymon pulled Quillin from the Korobov fight. The only exception being Mayweather vs Pacquiao and that was only because there is so much money involved.

Arums even said that if Manny fights Khan that Haymon wouldn't be involved. Khan supposedly has some clause in his contract.

LOL, Oscar is bitter.


Wilder KOs Ortiz

[PK3434]

It's very easy to criticize oscar for several reasons...however, he is the promoter of the year for 2015, easily.

Jennings is one of those fighters who maintains WIDE eyed concentration on his opponent, as if he's scared of being hit. His eyes are gonna REALLY be big for this fight
