Mayweather Mosley was pretty fucking hyped.

I have been a boxing fan since 2005 (9th grade) and I've never seen a fight so hyped as Mayweather-DLH.

After destroying Mayorga, 35-year old De la Hoya was a top contender at 154. Maywaether was the recent 147 champion. Superstar vs. Wannabe Superstar. The fight was not so great, but it had an aura of magnificence.

Mayweather vs. De la Hoya

That face to face stare down was epic, trash talk and all

Hype is probably best reflected off the raw dollerage for a particular bout.

Floyd dlh
lewis tyson
Floyd mosley
Pac dlh
Pac cotto
followed by variousl dlh headed fights

floyd-dlh
dlh-pac
dlh-hopkins
floyd-hatton
pac-cotto
pac-hatton
mosley-floyd
dlh-mosley
mosley-margarito i think was pretty big even though it wasn't on ppv. but they had more people in that building than any other time.

although i was very hyped for cotto-mosley and cotto-margarito 1.

I believe that you can pretty much statistically prove that it is Mayweather/De La Hoya.

bjl12 · 12-11-2012, 01:50 AM

No option comes close to Floyd/DLH. First 24/7 and all made it a can't miss. Especially with Floyd's daddy problems being exposed on 24/7 XD

Asterion · 12-12-2012, 05:55 AM

Clear winner: PBF vs. DLH

Unbreakable1 · 12-12-2012, 08:17 AM

In Britain, Hatton-May was huge. But overall got to be De La Hoya-Mayweather. Proof is in the buyrates.

damian38 · 12-12-2012, 08:21 AM

the one that never happened: Lewis-Vitali II

Zopilote · 12-12-2012, 08:22 AM

DLH-FMJ without a doubt.

I don't think I've ever seen a fight as hyped as Hatton vs Mayweather over here, it was being talked about even by non boxing fans.
