Malignaggi has knocked out 5 of 24 and Forbes has knocked out 9 of 33, it's not that far off. Even comparing these 2 is foolish, Malignaggi would be a great tune-up and he was mentioned but ultimatly he has the potential to beat Oscar. He's like Mayweather without the power.
I don't know, I think Floyd's power is quite good when he wants to use it. He just seems unwilling to get into scraps.
if you look at mali's fight by fight record you will see that all of his KO's came early in his career. meaning he knocked out the bum on the corner, the milkman, maybe the mailman, and oh yeah the icecream truck driver. In all actuality he hasn't knocked anyone out with a credible boxing background.
I like Forbs and he beat Dhop but i am sure he cant make up for the size difference against DLH I think Gomez could beat Oscar though
Whether or not he can (which I actually hope he does), I personally have no problem with him picking up this pay day. How much does a tune-up make against Oscar? I mean, Forbes WAS on the Contendor and nearly won, so it's not as if he's a no-name.
i hope he gets beaten on points so that the chances of pbf /cotto happening increase...i dont hate on oscar or anything i just dont wnna c em go round once more cause if they stick 2 that timetable we wont get cotto/pbf till 2009...and it most likely wont b early 09...
So if the fight was competitive for 12 rounds then how could have Sturm make Oscar look like ****.:huh atsch
