I HATE how they are saying Oscar erases............. his knockout loss to B-Hop with this performance. Oscar didnt erase sh*t. The only way he can erase that is by defeating B-Hop, but we all know that aint gonna happen cuz they buddy buddy golden boy partners now.
LOL true, but if Oscar fought the way he did last night, I think B-hop would have more trouble..
Besides he did pretty well... Oscar was winning on all scorecards until round 8, then hopkins won 2 and on the 9th he got that not so hard looking hook to the side of oscar, I tihnk oscar could've gotten up, it seemed to dramatized IMO.
I agree... I'm a little uneasy about that knockdown. At the same time I can't see why Oscar would stay down if he could get up. It did seem dramatized though. He was rolling around, and banging the canvas. Usually when a guy is put away with a body shot, he just doubles over, or takes a knee, winces and is unable to move in time.Quote:

ok...review the facts...B-HOP is a great middleweight/supermiddle weight.....ODLH is a great junior middleweight...ODLH lost because he faught out of his class...not because B-HOP was that much better...I love B-HOP but facts are facts....154 is ODLH....he's back!!!!Quote:

I can understand how some ppl can question oscar takin a dive, but wouldn't losing a uninamous decision be less embarrasing than getting koed. also he didn't seem to be banging the golve as soon as he went down. watch the fight he was in pain and paralyzed for the whole ten count and after some recuperation starting banging his golve in frustration. for fighters it is the worst feeling to get kayoed than anything else even getting injured.
DAMN STRAIGHT MY BROTHA :)Quote:

I have to agree. I am very suspicious about that knockout, in retrospect. It really did not seem legit. It seems pretty unthinkable that DLH would be involved in something like that, but I have a feeling the whole thing was done to put Hopkins "over", to borrow a wrestling term.Quote:

it wasnt a dive, ODH is just a pussy ;)
I can't say this erases anything, but shows that Oscar is still in good shape. Mayorga hasn't been the same since he was destroyed by Tito. Also, he has been inactive. Oscar only proved that he can still punch.
Hopkins led on 2 scorecards after the 8th wide enough that he could have given away the next 4 rounds and won the fight. Oscar only led on 1 scorecard by 2 rounds.Quote:
