De La Hoya's opposition is savage!!!

naaah.

PAC =A
Delahoya = A
Floyd = C- ( because im feeling generous)

 

SRL said, in public, that when he saw Hearns vs Hagler, he thought to himself "No thanks, I'll stay retired." Could very well have been tongue in cheek, but none-the-less, it was said. His words, not mine. Just FYI.

If you talk to "old timers," many will give you the opinion that SRL was waiting for Hagler to fade. Some consider the decision outrageous and felt SRL "shoe shined" his way to victory. SRL also got everything he pushed for in the pre-fight negotiations to get any edge he could. (Ring size and gloves in particular)

I know many consider SRL the poster boy for the modern "Golden Boy' boxer image. Huge endorsements, can dictate fight terms, and can pick and choose who and when to fight. And they have a legitimate argument. If you look at the "top stars" in boxing today, many are taking a page directly from SRL in regard to the way he did things on the business side of boxing.

 

That just makes floyds win over him even more impressive

 

not really. floyd doesnt get to ride oscars tailcoat.

 

Nawww....Pac C+ (now because of his fans..)
De La Hoya A+
Mayweather A+ ( because his haters DKSAB!)

 

De la Hoya has the best names on his resume of anyone in last 24 years

 

dlh
real deal
pacquiao

 

He also studiously avoided Azumah Nelson at 130 pounds! I wonder why. They chose to fight Jimmy Bredahl for the WBO belt. Says it all really.

 

seriously you guys goin on about oscar's resume being great lmao. when you go for a job do you talk aboput how many losses you caused for the previous company you worked for? of course not losses matter on a resume especially when comparing boxing legacies.
