Boxing Stars Pick De La Hoya-Mayorga Winner

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The stage is set and the world will be watching May 6 when “The Golden Boy” Oscar De La Hoya returns to the ring to challenge dangerous World Boxing Council super welterweight champion Ricardo “El Matador” Mayorga. [details]

[THE REAL NINJA]

Hmmm all the guys that have something to gain from a DLh win pick him

[ferocity]

mayorga has a chance in the first three rounds, if he can't ko delahoya he's getting a boxing lesson and bruised face

[the_truth_1984]

Wonder why Mayweather is picking DLH to win.Seriously though you have to go with the general theory, Oscar is just the better boxer and should win if he doesn't get caught.Most of the fighters that picked DLH to win either had something to gain by him winning (Mayweather) or had already beat him (Mosley and Trinidad).Still it's hard to say they are being biased because most people are picking him to win.

ANTONIO “THE MAGIC MAN” TARVER

PREDICTION—MAYORGA

VIEW— "I truly believe Mayorga has a good chance. Oscar has been inactive and I think he’s trying to do the Trinidad blueprint – come back and get a win over a credible guy. But I don’t think De La Hoya has that kind of punching power. He has the speed and quickness to outbox Mayorga, but I think Mayorga is going to put pressure on him and he’s got that wild side – no matter how bad he’s being beat, he’s trying to knock your head off and he won’t quit. De La Hoya’s not used to that pressure. I think Mayorga coming in as an underdog is a good bet. I like Mayorga in an upset."

I hate Tarver, but he got it right...
