You mention Stevie Forbes as if he was supposed to get stopped by cab drivers, he fought 49 professional bouts and was stopped once albeit on the last round of that fight. I agree in that Oscar talks like he's drug binging again but Stevie Forbes was no chump.Originally posted by JK1700 View PostCoked up De La Hoya gets beat even by McGregor. He couldn't stop Steve Forbes 9 years ago, now he looks about 55 and has gone through drug and alcohol problems, so it's safe to say he gets stopped by anyone with a pulse at this point. Even MMA fighters.

I really do believe even right now he could KO conor quick. De la Hoya has a special natural fighting ability and crazy speed and power. Styles make fights and you either have it or you don't and DLH could just rip the bag like floyd and conor never could even recently in a vid he posted. He would also weigh as muvh as conor and have a height advantage same reach

Oscar is probably correct, and he was a better fighter all-round than Mayweather in his prime. He would have been all over Floyd in an even more impressive manner if they had fought a few years earlier than they did. By design and/ or good fortune, look at when Mayweather actually fought Pacquaio, De La Hoya, Mosley, and Cotto. Didn't fight Williams and Margarito. So, maybe barely scratches top 30 of all time. That's not to throw shade on his sublime defensive skills comparable to Willie Pep and Pernell Whitaker, and the record high career earnings, but an assessment of his level of greatness compared to the true best, eg. 'Sugar' Ray Robinson, and those who had over 100 to 200 wins.Last edited by Liondw; 09-08-2017, 04:47 AM.

Any real boxing fans knows mayweather carried him. And Oscar is right ,cause it $99.00 on PPV and Floyd didn't want the same controversy as the Pac fight.
