Is Oscar De La Hoya being underrated?

Chill dude....just messing with Mr "Glass Jaw" himself Rico :deal

 

In terms of exposure, money, fame. Yes.
Boxing? No.
Very good fighter.

 

I think he is being underrated. He handled Forbes just as easy as Berto did, perhaps better, and Berto is supposed to be the next best thing. Many big big punchers Oscar's own size have failed to stop him in his career, so I just cannot see why anyone would think that Manny can do it. Oscar will win convincingly IMO, I can't see Pac hearing the final bell at all.

 

Your favorite avatar though he is also one of my favorite was the ONE OBVIOUSLY exposed by tarver.

Do you remember what TARVER did to RJJ?! He was floored by TARVER. Head to foot was on the canvass. DID you ever see that in any of the PAC vs JMM fight?!

Now tell me? Who has a GLASS JAW?! :hi:

Anyway, I'm stil rooting for RJJ to win over CALZAGHE!:good

 

BewareofDawg, are you Rico?

 

Yeah he was floored by a shot that would've floored anyone from that weight and down. And yes....Pac was floored early in his career (could've been a body shot though actually)...and made to do the chicken dance against JMM.

 

Maybe :blood

 

Yup! He was floored. So early in his career! He was in his teens at that time. . . chicken dance! oH Never mind!

MAY my second favorite boxer win over CALZAGHE! :thumbsup

PEACE :good :thumbsup

 

Oh I hope he hands Calzaghe a whoop'n tomorrow night :yep

 

Totally agree baby! Totally agree

 

Roach is doing a good job of selling this fight and making it seem competitive. But ppl fail to realize that the Oscar that we seen against Forbes wasnt the real Oscar

 

Bump

 

where are they going to fight?

 

Without doubt he is underrated by many younger and casual fans who only remember the part time fighter he was at the last stage of his career. De La Hoya in his prime @ 147 was a absolute beast.
