Trinidad vs De La Hoya was a let down

Oscar like most people in boxing, even Floyd, is a champion of their own butthurtness so its not a surprising thing at all that he forgets his own disappointment to the sport. When you are trying to insult someone else the parallels to your own shortcomings are seldom on your mind.

Whether Oscar ran or not doesn't remotely suggest that he didn't school the fcuk out of Tito for nearly 10 ROUNDS. Tito looked desperate. Oscar basically thought he had it in the bag a bit too early(he still did in my opinion).
But now if you really didn't see Oscar school Tito when they actually engaged and boxed(there's about 8 rounds of that btw), you really shouldn't bother scoring the fights you watch tbh.

But when De La Hoya had his superfight with Tito he dropped the ball himself. It was supposed to be a war between all-time greats and a chance for boxing to make a big splash, but instead millions of fans were left with a bad taste in their mouth that night.
Kind of an interesting parallel.
Its also worth noting that dlh fought everyone and fought them in their prime and didnt consistently deliver horrible performances like floyd did.
Floyd waited 6 years to fight pac because he claimed pac wouldnt take the test. Only to then hire ariza and memo and get caught with the iv.
The list of fighters floyd ducked is endless. Dlh fought better competition, fought them in their prime and gave much better performances.

It didn't end boxing so people are just *****ing about the end of boxing for reason other than being a weakling.

You only have to win more than half of the rounds in order to win a boxing match.

U wanna say Oscar stunk up the joint that night coo I'll give u that. But it's idiotic for u to compare him to Floyds fights. Oscar gave good fights he took chances. Floyd gave u a Oscar Trinidad fight in all his fights, not only that but he thanked u after the fight to be ****** enough to buy the fight.

C'mon man this isn't the history forum. Post a vid FFS.
Most of the old heads I know had it draw but say it could have went either way.
I'm waiting for someone to upload a vid of it that isn't grainy.

Pac ran away from the fight in 09 over random testing.

Oscar stunk up the joint on several occasions.
Remember the Felix Sturm fight??
Oscar wasn't even in shape for that fight...now show me ONE time Floyd entered the ring out of shape.
