A Look at De La Hoya-Mayweather

[bishop2006]

You mention that you feel Castillo won the 1st fight with PBF in your eyes. Well, I say then that those same eyes surely saw Whitaker beat Oscar quite handily when they fought too. A "young" Oscar as you call him couldn't do anything with an "old" Sweetpea, so why do you think he can do anything with a "prime" Floyd? To compare Floyd to Hearns or Robinson at welterweight really isn't fair dont you think? They were at their natural weight and he is not.

LOL exacly,a prime DLH beat Pernell? Its amazing he can bring up that Castillo beat Floyd in the 1st but he never wrote anything about Pernell being robbed,and hes going on like Floyds fights are boring,how ? The Zab,Gatti,Mitchell,Corrales,Chavez and Castillo fights were all good,just because the Baldomir fight was boring 2 a few people Floyds a boring fighter now? That writer makes me laugh

Excellent Post, Karma sent.

De La Hoya will beat Mayweather? Now that's a joke! I think there's a better chance that Evander Holyfield will unify the heavyweight titles than Oscar defeating Mayweather.

I didn't know it was bad to outbox someone who fight night weighs much more than you, and who is slow as hell on their feet.

He could've been stopped, and if it was Robinson in that ring; then Baldomir certainly would've been stopped.

Well Robinson is stronger and his hands aren't ****ed up.


Don't think I'm ******. I know SRR is better than Mayweather.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not in love with Floyd and he has turned me off with his choices of fights for a little while. HOWEVER, to call him dull in the ring is crazy.
Nightmare and Shocky amongst others need to grow up or go to a kids forum.
Mayweather is the most talented active fighter. What he does and doesn't do in the ring is obviously WAY beyond your comprehension.

Personally I too believe that if he was the 'Best of All Time' he should have been able to KO Baldomir. However, it was a beautiful exhibition of skills and properly showcased Floyd's dominance over most fighters today. He's not the best of all time. He's pretty damn good though.

I'd have more respect if he carries on after DLH though. The book is majorly unfinished on Floyd and if he retires next year his resume is gonna be very light.

At the moment I think DLH is too big with enough left in the tank to beat Mayweather. I will think better of Mayweather depending on how he handles this fight, win or lose.

This is all that needs to be said:

Quick question - anyone know when the ticket sales start for this fight? o-O

[shocky]

Only a mayweather nut hugger would think mayweather was anything but a dull boring circus performer. Golden boy will expose him and damage him. Mayweather will be retired and have time to take care of his dysfuctional family.
