I can see the second fight between Floyd and Oscar playing out this way....Delahoya using his jab more actively and pushing Floyd back...Delahoya then throwing his usual flurries near the ropes, of wich only few punches actually land on Floyd...at the end of the day a close decision goes to Delahoya.....then a 3rd fight is setup for even more cash its in both camp's interests....the Mayweathers and Delahoya will keep milking this puppy til there is nothing left Although I believe that Floyd can beat delahoya with no problems and even knock him out....Floyd will take it easy in the 2nd fight....then probably win the 3rd fight convincingly
You know the last guy to knock oscar out was a guy who weighed around 175 on fight night. So the chance of a knock out are really slim, seeing as both aren't getting any younger. Mayweather is not getting any better, he's only getting older.
It seems plausible that Mayweather would throw the fight in order to setup a trilogy? I don't think so.
too much money involved in this...Mayweather gets his cash and Oscar gets his W against the p4p #1 fighter in the world.....in the 3rd fight Mayweather redeems himself and gets even more money....this is what its all about IMO i dont think that Floyd will damage his lagacy either....he would have his first L but agaisnt a 6 time world champion who he already beaten.... this scenario makes perfect sense, Oscar will be underdog too, so there is a good reason to throw some money on this fight
Mayweather wouldn't throw a fight. Do you guys realize the implications they would face if ever caught?
This thread just sounds like an excuse for Floyd loosing. That sucks. But anyway, I think Floyd wants to go out undefeated and can't imagine he would let Oscar win for any amount of money. Oscar will bring the fight of course, and Floyd will be in a shell for the first four rounds and try and let Oscar punch himself out. Whether this happens who knows. Oscar knows this is Floyd's strategy. It will be more interesting than the first one, I think, and there might be a surprise in it.
OK...mayweather bets on himself as he usually does....looses some money on that bet but he can say that look, i didnt bet on oscar so im clean,,,,how else can he get caught?
...and he can make a lot of money fighting Hoya a third time anyway...of not Hoya then Hatton or why not...Cotto.
Floyd was upset with his uncle Roger wanted to train Forbes, saying that he doesnt want Delahoya to loose and jeopardize their rematch....I think its only natural for Mayweather to try and setup a third fight....If not loose, then set it up as a Draw. Maweather's nickname "Money" isnt for nothing
How many times has Oscar rematched someone that he beat? The point being, even if Floyd were to throw the fight, no way in hell Oscar would rematch him. Oscar would have to be in on it as well. Oscar has enough money that he doesn't need to be involved in fixed fights in order to setup another money fight. If he got caught, it would ruin GBP.
