Ok.
Well, Oscar has faced the better opposition, has the better pedigree, has more power, equal speed and heaps of expierience alongside his weight and size advantage.
However, I would not be surprised to see this fight go quite a number of rounds.
During the first DelaHoya Mayweather fight, many commented on Oscars preparation saying that Mayorga was a completely wrong opponent for before Floyd.
Forbes can be cagey, elusive and fights out of a shell, I suspect Oscar may try and get a few rounds in letting his boxing solve the Forbes puzzle, ratyher than his power so as to become accustomed to a tricky customer like Mayweather.
Forbes is a very good fighter.Oscar is still at his age an elite fighter.IT will take a few rounds for Oscar to get the rust out and fall into his rythym.This is were Forbes could jump ahead on the cards but to me he just dosen't have the power.All the credit to Forbes but once he get's hit by Oscar De La Hoya not Grady Brewer,not Demetrius Hopkins (which I thought he won) he will say "Shit did that check clear yet".
Yeah your right man lolz, really anyone who fights ODLH gets a Golden check! :)Quote:
