LOL

    ????

    What does being floored have to do with anything?

    I don't hate Tito, I like Tito, but I understand when it comes to business, what the deal is: the person that sells more tickets and television rights, is going to be "The Man"



    Oscar brings more money into the fight, that's the way it is...

    Puerto Rico doesn't have the money that the United States has...Oscar sells front row seats costing thousands of dollars to the rich/celebs, I am not sure Puerto Rico can compete with that. The population here in the States per person are in better economic shape, so they are more likely to shell out the $50 in their own homes instead of going to the bars...though I am not sure it is really costs $50 like it does here, in Puerto Rico.


    Even Acelino Freitas, who is a huge star in Brazil, has to come here for the bigger money.

      How even dare you. DLH only has ****** Americans who back him cause he won a gold medal, right place, right time= Ali. 50/50, and he shouldn't budge


      Gold Medal = honoring the country, that's what it is about...doesn't Tito claim to do the same every time he fights?


      "Right place, right time"...
      this isn't entirely true: even if you are at the right time, it takes a certain personality to capture the mob...Tyson never won a Gold Medal, yet he became one of the most popular athletes in modern history.

      "****** Americans"


      Americans have their problems, but if the Americans are "******" what does that say about Puerto Rico and the rest of the world?
      How are you letting such ****** people be at the top?

      I am not one of those blind "Americans" that think everything is great about this country, but I believe in the continuing Potential...America is great because of the "Idea", not because of how it is right now.

      Just remember, more people are coming to America than they are leaving, including the Puerto Ricans.

      Tito needed America, that is why he fought here

        If 30% equals 15 million, then Floyd has no right to complain since it will be by far his biggest pay day.

        It is not so much about percentage, as it is how much is in the total pot, and who is bringing the gold to put in the pot.

        If Floyd can get 15 million or more somewhere else, all he has to do is show Oscar the facts

            Let me clear some points here boys and girls as obviously some of you don't have a clue of what you're talking about. Oscar's the bigger draw, enough said. Tito won their last fight, that's another fact. Tito's retired, Oscar's still active. This fight should've taken place back in 2000, Oscar for whatever reason never agreed to the fight. Now that he's planning on retiring, he bluffs calling Tito out saying he wants redemption for his first loss. But in reality he doesn't give a **** about redemption, he's letting Floyd know, we're fighting next year, you gonna fight me as a blown up LMW and you're gonna get whatever amt of $ I'm willing to give you, if you don't like it **** you I'll fight Trinidad and **** him over. If Oscar beats Floyd with the weight disadvantage many are gonna say Oscar retires as the #1 p4p by beating the #1 p4p, not to mention the huge pay day in which he ****ed Floyd over.
            Some of you need to understand that being the biggest draw is only one of the many aspects to be taken into consideration when making a fight, it is NOT the ONLY aspect. Negotiations are not solely based upon the biggest draw, if that was the case, then I guess a bum like Augustus would be one ****** millionaire, and that is not the case! Or even Tyson. You need to also take into consideration you wanna draw your opponent from retirement, you're the one calling him out. You also need to consider the opponent beat you the last time he faced you. That and other arguments of that sort take place when doing negotiations for a fight. Of course, if you ask Oscar he'll tell you well who puts more asses in seats Tito or me? Obviously Oscar. If you ask Tito, he'll say, I'm retired, he knows it, yet he's calling me out and then backing out of the deals, he doesn't want the fight. This is also true. None of them have done great lately, Trinidad took a devastating loss to Winky and Bhop and Oscar lost to Bhop and argueably to Sturm, and they both beat the crap outta Mayorga.

              one of the articles I read a while ago stated that the reason why the rematch didn't come off is because Papa Tito thought that they should get the larger part of the purse..."Oscar needs Tito, Tito doesn't need Oscar"


              Oscar basically told Papa Tito to stay on his Island

              Remember when Shane tried this tactic with Oscar? it lost him a fortune...Oscar hasn't been one to give in, I am not sure he is willing to do it now.


              I don't agree with it all in the sense that I think like some others think, Oscar is only using Tito to negotiate a better deal with Floyd

                True, when Oscar opened his mouth to call Tito out he never meant for the fight to happen.

I dont have a subscription to that website so I can't see exactly what it says but from what I got from the cotto website, this is to show that DLH is the one that does not want the fight and all he has done is talk crap. They are changing their 7 year standing offer to this new one. There you go guys, what do you think?
                  Beating Trinidad would mean nothing at this point for DLH. It makes zero sense. Tito couldn't win a round against Wright.

                  The only fight that makes sense for Oscar is P4P. other than that, stay retired.
