    Is Oscar Better Now then He has Ever Been?

    Im asking this because Ive recently read a article from another Floyd hater and he was talking about Oscar fighting Floyd or Tito. He proudly cliams to love Oscar to death. I think he was dumb enough to say that the Tito fight would make more money and be bigger. He also said that he doesnt want to see Floyd get a fight with Oscar because he doesnt deserve it and he wants Oscar to get his revenge on Tito.

    Anyways, getting to the point he said that Tito is still dangerous but Oscar would beat him and get his just due for that fight. He never really talked about how a fight between Oscar & Floyd would play out but in talking about the Tito fight he said that Oscar is a better fighter now then he has ever been and you can tell that by the way he destroyed Mayorga.

    I know most of you will probally say that the dude is crazy but its close to me. Oscar was faster and stuff when he was younger but he is still pretty fast now and he's much more of a complete fighter now then when he was younger. Oscar was seemed as a kind of one demensional one handed fighter who has no defense. His D has been better and he uses both hands much more now. I still think the younger Oscar is better though

    Of course he isnt better than he ever has been.

    And Of Course a DLH vs Trinidad rematch WOULD be bigger and make tons more money than DLH vs Floyd.

        I'd like to echo this sentiment as well.

        Oscar looked great against Margarito; but only Sam Peter has worse boxing skill than the matador.

            Sorry guys but you 2 are wrong. Read any article on this fight and they all say that it will be more money then the Tito fight was the 1st time, it will probally be the biggest money non HW fight in history, and it could just be the biggest money fight in history all together.

            You guys are insane if you think the public will just go crazy for a Oscar-Tito fight. I admit that Tito is a bigger name then Floyd but when you throw in Oscar, Floyd is the much bigger fight due to the fact that people know its a new fight, Oscar's last fight, its against the #1 rated guy in the sport, his father trains Oscar, and Floyd is a American. This fight would be way bigger then a Tito fight. You think people are going to go crazy about seeing a guy who is basically retired, has looked like crap in his last couple of fights, and is not any kind of ranked guy?

            The Floyd fight will make way more money and everyone says that

                Not true, for PR Tito is still god, and contrary to your belief, still more people know about Tito then about Floyd, plus both tito and DLH got more fans then Floyd. Also their first fight is legendary unfinished business.

                  Yes, true.
                  PBF fans musta be crazy to think that Floyd with his style, personality abd charisma(or very little of it) will have as many fans as tito.Not that I dont aknowledge Floyd's ability and talent or saying that he is worse fighter, its just he does not have the persona of tito not dlh.

                    Sorry...I meant the sentiment of if De La Hoya was better than ever.

                    PBF would be a "bigger fight" at this point because Trinidad has a more vulnerable hold at the moment due to his embarrassing losses to Hopkins and Wright.
