DP quoth Jack Handey…
“If you’re a boxing referee, it’s probably illegal to wear a bow tie that spins or changes colors.”
“In boxing I don’t think it’s smart to let the other guy’s hands touch your face because, I mean like, you don’t know where his hands have been.”
“To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there’s no music, no choreography, and the dancers hit each other.”
Yeah Oscar is pretty much done…………that 7th round was straight Master P “uuuuuuuuuuuuuugh”
Oscar was already done going into this fight. Can’t pull the trigger anymore. Trying to drop to 147 was stupidity, he could barely stand at the weigh-in. Manny is the truth and has been for a long while, fcuk Fraud Gayweather.
I don’t care what people say about Oscar . . . he always fought people he couldn’t beat or shouldn’t fight. Sure like every other boxer he picked his opponent that he felt he would match up well against but he often chose those he wouldn’t do well against.
His skills are diminishing but he definitely had a great career.
He had a great career from a marketing perspective and he will go into the HOF for sure. Agree he took on tough opponents but he did come up short against the truly elite fighters. While he’s good for the sport in bringing casual fans to watch, truly great fighters (like Manny) don’t get the money they deserve.
Since he lost to B-Hop, he’s picked on smaller opponents / people coming up in weight but that came back and bit him against Manny. His aren’t diminishing, they’re gone, he is shot and can’t pull the trigger. Time to retire.
I really believe that the golden boy Oscer Delahoya was at one time the top 10 pound for pound boxer of all time. Real boxing fans should no that already. He FOUGHT EVERY BODY AND ANYBODY! Then some of the fights he lost, he should of WON! Like the Trinadad fight, the secound Mosley fight, and even the first fight with Mosley it was so close, i thought Oscer pulled it off. Then you have him moving up and down in weight witch is never a good idea but thats how he was, never backing down from any fighter out there. Look at the Bernard Hopkins fight. OSCAR was winning the fight untill he got caught with that kidney shot. He was dominateing the first 9 rounds of the Trinadad fight untill he listened to his corner to stay away from Trinadad cause even like myself i thought there was no way he could have lost that fight! Then you have the running money man Uglyboy Floyd Mayweather, in which i really believe Oscer should have definally WON that fight! Thats the most running Iv’e ever seen uglyboy run in a fight! If it wasn’t for those losses we would be talking about how he would go down as one of the greatest fighters of all time. From his #1 fan, Russ Beatty.
