Floyd Mayweather: "Oscar De La Hoya Will Never Be A Legend Like Me"

[Guest]

Mayweather has consistently dominated quality opponents.

Did he? Where was I when this was happening?

[Mr. Ryan]

you always speak the truth, you don't have to like them to appreciate them.

The truth is that I'm a huge Oscar De La Hoya fan and it would please me greatly to see De La Hoya beat Mayweather. I truly think that Mayweather was a better fighter.

Simply stated, regardless of skill, if Mayweather retires after his next fight, he will never be the Legend De La Hoya is.

What i don't understand about this whole is when PBF talks about how all he cares about is his legacy and how he'll fight people in any cirumstances, why he won't just fight DLH on DLH's terms? Who cares about the money right?

well, its kind of the same reason an artist doesnt sell a painting for 700 when he knows its worth 900, and the buyer wont accept 850, you cant give up your leverage when you know your worth it, you can only bend so much or it ruins you,...trust me, that example i used actually happened.
