    I am NOT.

    No offense to Horus, but I don't have the same posting style as dude. I am a boxer out of a gym in the 7 cities. Roughouse. And, if you read any of my previous posts, I comment on Pacquiao, Cotto, Haye, Valuev, Yorgey, Angulo, Bruce Lee, Ali, SRR, Lennox Lewis, Tyson, Judah, just to name a few.

    I am not just fixated on PBF. But there have been so many ridiculous threads about him lately, that I figured balance needed to be established, which is why I bumped this thread a couple of times. And then I was just astounded that people wouldn't even read and just resorted to insults, and downplaying.

    But then again, maybe I shouldn't have been.

    No you are a nuthugger. And, you lucky I have to go to work cuz I would expose you. I will do it when I get off. Like in another thread you said Bert Sugar predicted Oscar to beat Floyd. And, that was a lie. He predicted Floyd. That whole post. Was a fail. And, I will show you when I get off work. When it comes about Mayweather you have to do your homework. Cuz I will expose you as a nuthugger.
    Funny, I had to go too. But I am back.

    See, I was just giving you props a few posts ago for doing your homework, but now you are jumping right back into baseless accusation-land. For shame. lol.

    I looked it up. Bert Sugar vacillated about it, that's why I remembered it differently. At one point he said it was very very very close but he slightly favored DLH, but then he switched it to Floyd.

    Its hard to find a bunch of predictions about it anymore, they used to be everywhere, but a lot of people had DLH as their pick, citing that he was bigger, and had more experience!

      one more thing Senor Rosales...you act like no one picked DLH to win over Floyd.. here's some writers and fighters that disagree with your perspective.

      WRITERS

      Jane Amakor - FightKings.Com - Oscar will Win

      Brian Bizzack, Amatoboxing - "I like Oscar by close (and perhaps controversial and split!) decision. I don't think the fight will be a 'barn-burner', but a strategically compelling bout that will maintain our interest throughout."

      Robert Mccinnis (5/4/07)FightKings.com - Oscar Dela Hoya by TKO in the 5th, you heard it here first.

      Mario Concha, El Diario - De La Hoya TKO in 10

      Rafael Ramos, La Opinion - Oscar in 9

      "If Oscar does not win by the 9th round, Floyd will win."

      Robert Morales, Los Angeles Daily News - De La Hoya by Decision

      "Because of all of Mayweather's trash talk, De La Hoya is in that special frame of mind where he just does not lose. Some fighters don't perform well with this kind of psyche, but De La Hoya is at his best under these circumstances. All he has to do is land that left hook on the chin once and it will change the complexion of the fight. As good as Mayweather is defensively, De La Hoya has enough patience to ride out the storm until he has the perfect moment to strike. It wouldn't shock me to see De La Hoya stop Mayweather late."

      Lance Pugmire, Los Angeles Times - De La Hoya by Decision

      Steve Springer, Los Angeles Times - De La Hoya in 11 by TKO

      "De La Hoya 11 Round TKO because Oscar is confident that Floyd doesn't have the power to hurt him. He will cut him down the ring, and wear him down with body shots. "

      Richard Sandomir, New York Times - De La Hoya by Decision

      Sergio Abarca, Notimex - De La Hoya by KO

      "I have covered 17 fights of De La Hoya, and I know him well. I think he has the skills and punch to knockout Mayweather. De La Hoya is stronger than Floyd."

      Brian Doogan, Sunday Times - De La Hoya

      Norm Frauenheim, The Arizona Republic - De La Hoya in 9 by TKO

      "Oscar De La Hoya wins a ninth-round stoppage. Floyd Mayweather will go into the late round with a big lead on the judges' scorecards. In an attempt to score an in impressive victory, he'll try go for the knocout. That's when a bigger De la Hoya will hurt him enough to win by TKO."

      Rafael Hernandez Brito, Univision Radio - De La Hoya by Decision

      "De La Hoya's size will be a big factor."


      FIGHTERS:

      "De La Hoya has the stronger punch. Mayweather is not used to facing bigger men. [ Carlos] Baldomir didn't have the talent of De La Hoya and Mayweather couldn't finish him. If De La Hoya cuts him early, Mayweather is going to be limited. De La Hoya by decision.'' Roberto Duran, Former World Champion

      "As far as my prediction, I lean toward Oscar. I've changed my mind a couple of times. But Oscar has a little bit more desire, strength, size. Oscar has never one that big one, the most defining moment in his career. I think that this allows him to rise to the occasion. But if Mayweather wins then he can be called great, because right now it's premature, but if he beats Oscar that label fits him fine." Sugar Ray Leonard, Former World Champion

      "I think De La Hoya's naturally bigger size is going to make a difference. I think Oscar will dominate Floyd with his left jab that will carry him to a decision victory." Juan Diaz, WBA, Lighweight Champion

      "De La Hoya vs. Mayweather will be a great fight, it will go the distance, and I think Oscar has a slight edge, but I do not know who will win." Vernon Forrest, Former Welterweight Champion
