De La Hoya-Mayweather On For May 5

[hugh grant]

lol, you are to Ricky Hatton what Ferocity is to Margarito, ****ing obssessed.

De la Hoya is a much better opposition than Tszyu. Tszyu-Hatton was a ****ing joke, that was the worst ref i've seen in my life. Hatton is just a poor wrestle, the guy lost to Collazo...

DLH at his peak was as good as Tyzu, but DLH is way past it. When Kostya fought Hatton Kostya was very highly rated whereas DLH isnt now!

Collazo would give Mayweather a better fight than DLH at this stage of DLH's career, and i think DLH has a great chance against Mayweather

why the hell is it so far away..why not febuary or march

It must have something to do with the WEATHER in MAY?

Are you ****ing ******? Tzyu as good as DLH? GTFO.. Oscar would've KO'd him then and now.

You give Hatton credit for 35 year old Tsyzu, but won't give Mayweather credit for a 33 year old DLH. You're a joke...

No i aint a joke man. I rate ODLH very much. One of my faves. But Mayweather wants shortcuts and wants everyone to say how good he is compared to the other greats like Ali, SRR on the basis of this possible victory and i aint gonna give him credit on the basis of beating a past it DLH. DLH is past his prime but i still give him a great chance to beat Mayweather.

[josenoway]

laugh, it's impossible to take anyone seriously who calls JLC a nobody.

The only respect I give Hatton is for trying out 147, but guess what, I take that respect right back when he instantly fled back to 140. That there is pure chicken**** cowardice.

And yes he beat Kostya, but I'm pretty sure it was in a wrestling match, not a boxing one.

Funny how badly Ricky looked when he fought outside England, without a WWF referee, against someone more qualified than the cab drivers he stacked his record with.

Truth hurts. Get mad. owwwww.

Yep but Tysu may or not have been past his best but he didnt lose fights like DLH has. People didnt beat Kostya for us to say he was past his prime. I dont know where DLH is p4p at the moment but Kostya was arguably still the top p4p whether or not he was at his prime. So give Hatton respect.
Floyd is very good but his record dont fool anyone.He wants to be an atg but hewont be an ATG with Castillo as his best opponent. In 20 years time Castillo is a nobody.

Hatton's win over Tsyzu wouldn't even compare to a Floyd win over DLH. Hatton fought Tsyzu at his natural weight. Floyd is fighting Oscar at 154, his FIFTH division. Hatton was the bigger, stronger man in his fight. Floyd will be much smaller than DLH. How the **** can you say this is a "shortcut" or an easy fight when it's against one of the top fighters of this generation in a weight class 24 pounds removed from where Floyd started where he's never fought? Man, Hatton moved up just 7 pounds and ran back down to 140 because he couldn't cut it. Stop hating...

No i dont hate Mayweather. I jus hate the fact that he is talking about retirement without fighting a certain Brit. A fight he said he wanted. We know why Hatton didnt want it at the time because he was otherwise engaged. But he wants it after Castillo.
Why is PBF in such a rush to retire? Hatton said he wants him. He said he would take him out! PBF knows Hatton said this and thinks this, so where is PBFS pride? Cant PBF wait a very short while? Things are never easy to arrange in boxing so why is PBF being so impatient, like a spoilt child, and in a rush to announce retirement
Again i aint hating him. I hate that he is talking of retirement with his pipe and slippers! Has he got a bit of cash in the bank now, so he thinks he can call it a day. Beating DLH is still good... but i still want him to prove he can beat a certain individual who is good and in his prime, and he hasnt done it yet. If he doesnt say he aint retiring i will continue to write posts like i sound i hate him.

If the best fighter in the sport challenges you not once but atleast 3 times and you turn him down. you don't deserve the fight, you don't deserve to box anymore. Ricky can't dictate when the fight should happen, it ain't on his terms, he should have fought when he was asked to fight. Instead the lil guy says next year every year when comes to accepting the challenge.

[hugh grant]

Yep but a lot of people think that this offer was a smokescreen, because Mayweather knew Hatton was engaged and would turn it down. It was an empty gesture. And Mayweather underestimates peoples intelligence and maybe overestimating his own.
Boxing fans are not dumb. They are humans. ANd humans have sent men to the moon and found cures for diseases.
