WBC strips Castillejo; is DeLahoya-Mayorga next???

[Mr. Ryan]

What do you mean by catcher....sounds like someone who blocks punches with their head ala Mayo/Tito or DLH with Strums Jab.

That would mean something to me, if I was a De La Hoya fan. But I am a boxing fan.

You know, tonight at 9 PM on ESPN Classic they are replaying the 1980 bout between Earnie Shavers and Randall Cobb.
At 154 and up, Ricardo Mayorga is Randall Cobb, a major league catcher. He hasn't been impressive since the last Vernon Forrest fight.

speaking of "tex" cobb...did you see his son fight on friday night foghts a while back? i hate it for the kid but he needs to forget about boxing. no talent what-so-ever

That was the single worst piece of athletic garbage I have ever seen in sports. And I have the nerve to say boxing should be on the level of baseball and football in terms of popularity.

He kept turning his back, he threw these weird ass punches with his chin in the air like "Knock ME the **** out!", and then pulled a "No Mas" to top off his moment in the sun.
The thing that gave me an idea that this kid was garbage was that I could see he knew nothing about the sport. He had the balls to say that after watching his father get slaughtered by Larry Holmes, that he saw his father had talent and skill. Give me a break. They need to use that boxing commission I always hear Teddy Atlas talking about to prevent idiots like this from disgracing the sport.

Why in hell you gotta bring up Trinidads name in every thread?

Funny, but true

[PRboxingfan]

First of all, DLH will be fighting at 150 pounds, not 154 (although, tecnically, he can fight for the title and be under weight). I doubt he'd give Mayo that much of an advantage, tho. Secondly, DLH won't fight Mayo because he is looking for 'BIG' fights, but will end up fighting some bum in Sept. I'm predicting it now.

[Fareastwarrior]

Mayorga is overrated, Oscar will beat him with his speed and power.

[jchavez12345]

I think dlh wins but not by ko, mayorga took a lot of shots in his last fight before he went down and we all know the guy he fought last can punch.
