    Im so sick of softer de la hoya's pretty boy garbage. it was fine when he was younger and actually a serious fighter but now its just pathetic with his money grabbing. after the pac fight i hope softer uses male modeling to get to the 1 billion mark hes shooting for and spares us boxing fans of his fake tough guy acting

    really have to agree with you on that. the advertisements for this fight are laughable. "i'm 35 years old. why do i do this? because i love it" man he sounds too soft.

    It's probably just his personality, sure he's a nice guy, but you have to admit he has what it takes to go in there and trade with guys.

    It is strange, but when he gets in the ring, it is all business. Mosley is not too far from him with his big smile and he really doesn't say too much as far as talking garbage.

    Think about it, they say most of his fans that show up are female due to his charisma, charm, and looks. You think there would be a great turnout for females if he is yelling that he is going to eat his opponents kids, etc?

    it is hard to watch some of the crap he says on 24/7, even though you know he can back some of it up he just sounds fake

    You won't get anything interesting from DLH's quotes. He's a walking cliche.

    I wish they would just show more of his training. That's much more interesting to watch than seeing DLH say the some old stuff.

    Why is everybody so against 'pretty boys'? Everybody is slamming Paulie too for being too 'feminine'. Is every body on this site a John Wayne 'real man' type? What a crock of ****. Guys like Paulie and DLH get tonns more *****.

    He talks some garbage but your a moron if you think he is soft, you don't get that far against top opposition when you are "soft". "Soft" welterweights don't get in the ring with guys like Bernard Hopkins.

    He is smart, selling a story of BS that will make him extremely wealthy, 99% of people would do the same, in fact they do, why single out Del boy?


    Every HollyWood actor/actress star/starlet is filled with fair tails, boxing is on the same box you watch movies on, Boxing is a soup opera and he is just another actor playing his part and you all watch it.

    because even how intelligent a person or how stupid he is, we all still fall from Hoya's trickery.
