Word on the street is that DLH is

Exactly!

De La Hoya's toughest fights have been against either bigger men ala Hopkins or very slick fighters ala Pernell Whitaker and Mayweather.

But against the Trinidads, the Vargas', the Mayorga's, and the Chavez' he has completely dominated these elite fighters.

ODLH has the perfect style to punish sluggers and brawlers. He has the speed, jab, and combinations to hurt and out slugg this type of fighter. He's proved it time after time. Against slick, elusive, speedy fighters he seems to have the most difficulties.

 

Against the Trinidads he lost and ran like a little Eastos Prostitute running from a Puerto Rican pimp with his belt off. Against the Vargas's well, the "Battle Damaged" Vargas's anyway, he did well against a Trinidad victim. And he looked great against an old ass man, washed up Chavez. :good

 

Something tells me Oscar's been sleeping on the couch for some time.

 

That was ****en funny.:rofl
But DLH won 7 rounds to Tito's four with one even round imo.
Doesn't matter that Hoya ran. He could have been rollerskating around the ring. He could have been standing on his hands and fending off Tito with his feet. The rounds were in the bank. Trinidad can only have won by knock out which never came. 7 rounds to 4 means a win.

 

I think its gonna be an uphill battle for Oscar to win against Cotto but I think he can. Cotto is a physical threat and Oscar does his best when he's in there with someone who could really hurt him. Vargas is a prime example. When Oscar is threatened and needs to think about not getting knocked out he fights a lot better. I think much of Oscar's troubles come when he overlooks his opponent. But he knows Cotto can hurt him. So Oscar should do good so long as he doesn't try and go for early ko to impress fans in final fight. He needs to take his time cuz Cotto will wear him down if he fatigues.

 

:goodon the DLH/Mayweather 2 rematch in May 09

 

Cotto is probably my favorite fighter in the game right now, but you guys a really over-rating for the fight against DelaHoya. You guys are only thinking of him as the better fighter because he's in vogue right now, but think about it. DelaHoya has fought bigger and stronger fighters than Cotto and hasn't been knocked out, and that's mainly because of his craftiness. Do you really think Cotto is gonna get through DelaHoya's veteran tricks so easily and destroy him? I also have some answered questions about Cotto's chin. He's so determined he hasn't gotton knocked out yet, but he's been hurt badly in several fights. DelaHoya is naturally bigger than most of the guys Cotto has faced and is decent puncher himself.

If anything, the fight would go into the later rounds in which case favors Cotto's youth. It's going to be a competitive fight.

 

And what does your card say about DLH-Trinidad:think

 

WTF are you talking about? He looked great against Forbes in terms of stamina and thats that he was working.

Btw, I thought he tired because he was a part time boxer, full time mega star, full time promoter.atsch

That explains why Cotto has done the chicken dance multiple times, gets hishead banged up in every fight and badly tired against Lovemore N'Dou.atsch

And DLH is one dimensional? DLH beat a more prime Mosley clearer than Cotto beat a way past prime Mosley.

DLh has fought the very best and not once been dominted. Has Cotto fought the very best?

And that is why I give DLh the edge. Because even though he is 35 and is past his prime, DLH ecells against fighters like Cotto. It's the Whitakers that present DLH problems and Cotto isn't a Whitaker an any stretch of the imagination.

 

Negative, Ghostrider, the Pattern is Full. 115-114, 6-5-1. OScar won 5 rounds, and he looked pretty good in them, but all of you that lie down at night and before you mastrubate under the covers, tell yourselves that OScar "won 9 rounds, or 7 rounds, or any of that other OScarsexual nonsense, need to learn how to score fights.

 

This thread is about boxing, not how attractive you find the young Sinatra, thanks for playing. :good

 

I see you are new to boxing, DLH would completly destroy margo and has a shot at cotto, dont fortget cotto does good against his competition but arguably lost to mosley who he could not hurt, dont get me wrong shane as a hell of a chin but so does hoya, I see this fight a 50/50 fight, u cant be serious if u think margo would destroy DLH, unless youre plain ******ed.
