Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: If I Was 28, 29 - I'd Have KO'd Mayweather's Ass!

Oscar out here over rating himself. Sounding like lavar ball when he said he'd have beat Jordan 1-1 back in the day.

Oscar lost to Trinidad, lost to Mosely twice, lost to B-Hop, lost to Mayweather, and lost to Pacquiao! He beat old man Chavez, and got a controversial decision over old man Whitaker! He was never as good as Floyd! Get over it!

JCC Sr. was 11 yrs. older than Oscar! JCC Sr. is probably saying the same thing about Oscar that Oscar is saying about Mayweather! It is what it is!

When Oscar fought Pernell Whitaker, Oscar was 24, Sweet Pea was 33! Many felt Pernell was robbed. Oscar never gave him a rematch! Karma is a *****!

Yep, that's why I can't feel sorry for Oscar losing via split to Floyd.

He got $20 million for his troubles, far more than Pea or Chavez.

Floyd s getting dissed recently. D!h wouldn't best Pac though.
There's a case Dlh might.have lasted distance against Pac in prime but that's about it..

You "fans" ruin the sport, you really do.

Prime DLH annihilates Manny - too big, too hungry.

Prime DLH and prime Floyd is 45/55 in Floyd's favor IMHO.

Floyd fought a MUCH fresher version of DLH at 154 using a smaller ring and DLH selected gloves.

Manny fought a DLH who weighed LESS than Manny on fight night, was recovering from a broken orbital bone..courtesy of Steve "2 lb" Forbes (who was 35-14 w/ 11 KOs) and was getting ****** in sparring against Valero before sending Valero home.

Prime DLH flat out hammers Manny and likely beats Floyd...at least very, very close (and the actual fight was very close to begin with)

Oscar is one of the biggest hypocrites in the sport! He said Mayweather vs. McGregor was a circus, but also said he would make Canelo vs. McGregor if Mayweather didn't want it! It destroyed Oscar to see "Cinco de Mayweather!" That wound was deep, and obviously it hasn't healed yet!

very good comment, oscar as a fighter very easy to like, oscar as a promotor not so much..

[Patsfan bri]

I actually scored that fight for delahoya 7-5. Mayweather Sr scores it the same as me and even said the next day he thought Oscar won.

[MonkeyGoatz]

dont you see the irony of your post.. you are one of them..

The real fight is not 147, that's not Floyds prime weight he was just that good to give guys like Oscar 20lbs, the real fight is 135 with no 20 lb weight advantage.

135 tops, Floyd was maybe best at 130 but definitely was a small welter with day before weigh ins.

Lot of good posts on this thread agreeing DLH is just salty!

So much animosity to Floyd from DLH yet his company countinues to promote him for years afterwards! $$$$$

Floyd lost to Maidana and Castillo. Probably lost against de la Hoya as well.
