;) Im agree , is the same as Cotto , Gomez isnt in the top 10 of fighters and Top Rank going put him fight with Cotto.... And about ODH im keep saying , if he still doing this he going taking all the CREDIBILITY of boxing down. He like now an easy fight and all the most of fans not going pay for see these kind pf fights.....Quote:

Oscar is such a sham!! Making the most money with the least amount of risk is the norm these days. I know Oscar has earned that, but the more he does it the more respect I lose for him as a PERSON. He owes a lot more to the fans who have consistently supported him by watching and paying for his boring as hell fights.
Dam guys get off De La Hoya's case.Do you really care who he fights a tune-up against.
Im thinking an upset win for Stevie and im hoping it comes off i wish Oscar would just retire and concentrate on promoting.
Folks, what do you expect? This is a tune-up fight! He's not going to fight a real threat who might ruin the big payday with PBF. You folks expected him to fight Margarito in a tune-up?
Yeah thats his problem . Even though Oscar was a superfeather too Forbes was a natural at that weight and we saw in teh contender final he had to adjust his style against bigger men and it didnt work . He also lost to Hopkins ( dodgy decision ) so I cant see him beating Oscar .Quote:

Just read its NOT final yet, but still in the works... Also just read Roy Jones wants to fight him at 156, Tito must have hit him with harder shots than it looked, I doubt Roy could even make 160.
I don't see what all the crap is about. People give him shit for making a fight with the #1 P4P when he did not deserve it. People give him shit because he wanted to fight Cotto or Hatton for a title when you felt he should wait in line like the rest after his loss and not keep the WW division on hold. Now you give him shit for taking a gimmy in a free event.
I frankly could'nt care less who he fights. If he wants a tune up, let him have his damn tune up.
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;DQuote:
