Mayweather Vs. De La Hoya

**Detroit_4_Life** · 11-26-2006, 07:59 PM

Now that the fight is officially signed who do you think is gonna win this?

I Say Floyd

**goandykid** · 11-26-2006, 08:00 PM

Really? When is it? Mayweather by TKO early. DLH is roughly 65 years old now.

Having said that, Rocky VI looks great.

**Detroit_4_Life** · 11-26-2006, 08:02 PM

I think May 5th '07 its suppose to be both of thei last fights, i don't know why Mayweather would retire so early he can't be but 29-30 years old

**goandykid** · 11-26-2006, 08:03 PM

6 months? That's some early scheduling for publicity match

**Detroit_4_Life** · 11-26-2006, 08:13 PM

I can't wait to watch this one Oscar should give Floyd a run for his money

**Goodfella9783** · 11-26-2006, 08:13 PM

PBF decision.

**Detroit_4_Life** · 11-26-2006, 08:13 PM

Hopefully it aint another boring UD for Mayweather

**goandykid** · 11-26-2006, 08:14 PM

There's no way DLH will last. His day is done.

Hes still got some power left it could be an upset

**Goodfella9783** · 11-26-2006, 08:18 PM

Last fight for both (supposedly). I see no one giving up. It will probably be a slightly-less one-sided Mayweather/Baldomir.

Hopefully not that fight was boring.. I would've payed more to see floyd spar

**Goodfella9783** · 11-26-2006, 08:27 PM

I don't pay for boxing PPV's period. I did see that fight replay though and it was pretty much what everyone expected. Paying to watch PBF is dumb cause it will be a bad fight no matter who he's fighting. He's that good.

**Detroit_4_Life** · 11-26-2006, 08:32 PM

I didnt pay for it either i meant like, if i did pay...

**Detroit_4_Life** · 11-26-2006, 08:33 PM

i would pay to watch this one though unless they jack the prices up

What? Where'd you hear that?

Yeah like i said up there... Theyre both SUPPOSE to be retiring after this fight... PBF says the better he gets the more meaningless his fights become so this will be his last one. Its because they booed him at the Baldimor fight and Oscar is just old

**goandykid** · 11-26-2006, 08:41 PM

That's sad, I saw him as the next Roy Jones JR. I doubt he'll hang it up.

He should move up in weight.

Floyd announced his retirement at the post-fight press conference against Baldomir. He was pretty emotional and seemed serious.

Yeah me too. he's only about 29 years old. thats why i said its "Supposebly" his last fight.

And i think he's moving up in weight for this fight but im not sure

**goandykid** · 11-26-2006, 08:50 PM

He can't be serious, unless he's trying another venue or something. He has years of being a champ left.

**Detroit_4_Life** · 11-26-2006, 08:53 PM

I hope he's not serious but like Goodfella said he seemed serious. Hopefully he'll just do something like move up a weight class or 2 and try for more competition.

**goandykid** · 11-26-2006, 08:54 PM

Who are the belt holders in the 2 weight classes above him?

**Goodfella9783** · 11-26-2006, 09:38 PM

Yeah I'd hate to see him retire this early too. Comparable to Barry Sanders if he does. All the talent in the world.

**goandykid** · 11-26-2006, 09:43 PM

Exactly. If he does stop boxing I'm sure he'll keep fighting. He has the balls to fight some chump in the UFC if the set up is right (fighting another pure striker, limited training) or maybe even limited kickboxing or something. He could bring in some serious dough

**the nut** · 11-26-2006, 10:15 PM

Pretty Boy 8 rounds to 4!

Getting out when your speech is still clear is a good choice.

Personal opinion. There are people who would trade some brain cells for a belt anyday. Did you read that Rick Reilly article on Tiki Barber retiring early a few SI's ago? Great article.

Maybe If you've never had one, but Mayweather's won a championhip fight or 2 in his career.

**Goodfella9783** · 11-27-2006, 03:43 PM

Mayweather barely gets touched in his fights.
