Mayweather vs Da La Hoya May 5th

I hate that it happens to be on Derby Day but It'll be an exciting day to say the least. Home town track will show the fight on a 25 x 25 screen but I'm having friends over to grill down on the BBQ. I have PBF winning in a UD in 12 rounds. Lots of Mexician friends looking to lose lots of money on this one with me. They're giving me PBF in 12 rounds Vs Hoya by KO. I think PBF will not get KO'ed so I'm looking to bet around a $500 on that with them.

You gotta love Oscar...I mean, he has fought just about every top fighter he could. I used to dislike him, but he is a true sportsman.

Oh ya..the guy who cries like a baby everytime he loses....and threatens to sue.

What a nimrod.

If it wasn't for sports, who would root for a NIMROD?

This is a flat out mismatch. Could De La Hoya land a lucky punch...sure...but if both fighters are at the top of their game it is a mismatch. Mayweather will give him a lesson like he's never had.....Fight ends in 8, whether by KO, TKO, or Oscar's face is a mess....how it ends doesn't matter, the fact that it will end waaaay to late for the De La Hoya camp is the issue.

Let's be serious here.

If this wasn't the potential Mother of all Gold Mines for Oscar Wiener....he wouldn't even take a sniff at it.

Only in America.

PBF could not mess up melting wax. I see him dancing around Oscar and peppering him. It goes the whole way with PBF in a un. decision. He is too fast. Maybe Oscar can catch him, but I cant see him knocking him out with one punch. It would have to be cumulative, and PBF is so fast, he just does not get hit that much.

And I cant stand PBF. He used to be one of my favorites. Needless to say if it comes down to guts and getting hit a lot, Oscar will win. PBF will not allow that. The only way PBF knocks out Oscar is if Oscar goes into desparation mode and gets totally caught off guard. My take. And I refuse to PPV. Ill just watch the rerun later.

I don't know much about boxing, but FW Jr. is a bad mutha ****er. Dude is like a rabid dog. He seems alot more hungry then pretty boy.

De La Hoya is the boxer win, lose, or draw that can still sell the most pay per views today. He's gonna get a whoopin on May 5th, but he's gonna make huge $$$$ too. I wouldn't be surprised if De La Hoya makes more $$$ than May weather in this fight.

Seattleallstar · #13 04-23-2007, 09:54 AM

Oscar KO's PBF in 7

I dunno....the way it's setting up....I think Oscar will take him.

I watched the first two episodes of 24/7 last night on HBO. Oscar really looks good. I still don't think he has a shot, but he looks better than ever. Mayweather is playing the thug role which drives me nuts. But his training regime is interesting. The whole beef about who is going to train him (his dad or his uncle) is ridiculous.

65 bucks? I'd rather get Cluck U and watch Spike TV myself.
