People who think De La Hoya beat Mayweather on May 5, 2007

[Ironside]

the fight was close and to say other wise is dumb. mayweather clearly won the fight but it was close.
taylor got his ass beat by pavlik but people arent bitching about that rematch.

Are you serious? The rematch with PBF-DLH, PBF will win better then last time. DLH is not getting any younger. Taylor was the man to beat when Pavlik fought him, he deserves a rematch. I don't think DLH does.

I hate it when people here say pbf ran, how do you land more punches and power shots running lol

[niceguy45]

thats one of the worst scores ive ever seen

ferocity > you.

that's just how i scored it....keep in mind oscar was the WBC champ at the time and on the rounds that oscar won floyd was not active enough, anyone could agree on that, you know that

DLH was the champion, and the fight was close.
I dont think theres one person out there who would say taylor won his fight, but there are many opinions who say oscar won or they saw a draw. maybe mayweather does win it bigger then before, then he would have a clear unquestioned victory.( peoples scores besides the judges dont matter to me)

It's doesn't really matter if he deserves it or not, it's in the contract for money reasons, not to prove who's better. Didn't DLH lose a belt in that fight?

Yea the fight was close, but I have watched it many times and I gave DLH the benefit of the doubt, and still I have PBF winning. Of course Taylor-Pavlik is not questionable, he got KO'd, but Taylor was ahead in the scorecards, (he shouldn't have been) and he almost KO'd him. DLH lost a decision. It wasn't a KO, where you could say PBF got lucky. He was clearly the better skilled fighter in that fight. Also, like I said, DLH is not getting better as time passes. PBF would gain nothing from this fight other than money. I think most fans don't want to see this fight. It will be just as boring as the first one.

ive made a thread on both fights i would love to continue a decent discusion on there if you would like.

da la hoya put up a decent fight with only one fight going into it, no matter how big of a pro you are if your not acctive and takeing real punches you will tire and take a while to get started, and know both fighters know each other a bit more and oscar is going to come into this fight with some acctivity

Yea I know, it's not up to us whether the fight is gonna happen or not. I just think most people don't want it to happen.

Nice avatar.

do you really think that oscar needs more money? a win over floyd if he can pull it off would be bigger then any payday he has gotten

I want this fight to happen, no matter who wins. It will just be a great entertainment. Complain all you want about Floyd not fighting this guy or that guy and nothing changes it.
