as for tito, where does he come off demanding ANY fight(much less one with oscar) after that DREADFUL performance agasint winky. titi had his day. taht day is over.
Floyd maybe the better fighter but it's Oscar that sells the tickets.

to which oscar responded "we must have 70% to make this fight happen"
http://boxingtalk.com/pag/article9739.html
which is the same as mayorga got ::**
am i the only one who remembers oscar saying if he ever fights again, its only gonna be mayweather because he wants to go out against the best?
now hes resorted to calling ageing boxers out of retirement and lying about their demands as an alternative to backing up his big talk and stepping in the ring with certain doom (mayweather)
i think he lost all of his heart when he started making those sappy a** music videos
:'(
Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Now you PBF fans want to start complaining about cowardness? PBF thinks and so do you the fans that hes the BIG man in boxing he might be in the sense of P4P but as far as an attraction he aint. Not compared to ODLH at least, I said this before PBF runs, ran and continues to run his mouth now hes after ODLH so he can pick up a nice little pay check. He knows ODLH will bring more money to him then anyone, I actually think all of this is just mind games by ODLH hes playing around with PBF messing with his head. Maybe trying to get a psychological advantage over PBF.
But anyway whatever the case may be, ODLH has that kind of power to decide who earns what and who fights him.
Now that PBF is on the other side of the blade it's a different story but when hes (PBF) in control as far as who he wants to fight all that is alright. Huh? All you PBF fans dont see nothing wrong with that all you can say is hes PBF, hes P4P, which is true but when dealing with ODLH all that is out the window, If HE wants you to fight him you will, if HE doesnt want you to fight him, then guess what? you wont cuz he brings the money.
So quit your wining and wait and see what happens. But don't worry I know and understand where your coming from.
I am curious to see if ODLH can get into Floyd's head...I DOUBT IT SERIOUSLY but am curious just to see if Floyd has taken it to the level of maturity that has progreesed after the legal stuff he had gone through before the Gatti fight....Floyd has grown up leaps and bounds since then and showed tremendous restraint during the Judah riot..That shows me that Floyd has arrived in every sense and to me his out of the ring cotroversies were gonna be the only thing holding him back, was he gonna be a great??? Or afighter with phenomenal potential but let other influences sabotage him like what happened to..
Mike Tyson
Ike Ibeabuchi
Zab Judah..Etc
I'm not kissing Floyds a** by any means but from a fan standpoint I am greatful for how he respects the sport and takes it serious to the point were training and preperation is paramount in his life instead of woman, drugs, excessive partying...So as a fan were not teased by an athlete who gets us excited and then goes off the deep end in one way or another, and we are always left wondering what could have been.....
Back to Oscar getting in Floyds head...I'm Saying no because as a defensive fighter goes he is just as good in that department as Winky, B-Hop, James Toney...All 4 of them have another outstanding quality and thats poise and mental toughness...
Re: Oscar Delahoya being oscar delahoya (a coward)
i think that Oscar will beat Floyd but not cause of playing mind games, i think he'll beat Floyd just cause of sheer physicality, De La Hoya is the bigger man in every sense of the word, he's taller, longer reach, and just flat out stronger, add in amazing hand speed as well, and outstanding boxing ability, and i think that De La Hoya will be too much for the much smaller Mayweather, if PBF wins it would be a close decision, the golden boy's chin is way to good for Mayweather to even dent it, also given that Mayweather Snr, would be in De La Hoya's corner, i think that he'll have also the advantage in knowing his opponant better, although Mayweather has the videos of De La Hoya's losses, but due to size and equal boxing talent, i think the Golden Boy would end his career on a high note
