Oscar de la Hoya Vs Steve Forbes Predictions, rd by rd and Results ETC

Forbes boxing smart in the 5th...Haa He counters Oscars feint and backs him up with a couple ...Forbes urging Crowd on ....He honestly (Oscar) is looking stuck in thinking process right this minute..Forbes round

Forbes is doing well still behind tho.

Round 5
Oscar is throwing the jab in bunches, I wish he would stay consistent with it 3 minutes a round, it serves him well. He opens with the jab again but Oscar is taking a short step back after the jab, trying to catch Forbes coming in with the left hook. When Forbes comes in though with the jab early, De La Hoya isn't letting the left hook though and Forbes is doing some nice punching coming forward but not landing much. Oscar has let off the gaspedal and is getting outhustled this round halfway through. Forbes is very comfortable moving backwards and sometimes stands his ground and invites De La Hoya to punch. De La Hoya hasn't landed much of anything this round except for a good body shot on the ropes at the 10 second mark. Still, nothing else and I think you have to give that round to Forbes. He outworked Oscar.

Damn Stevie could outpoint this closet queeen if he would just let his hands go more...when he lets off his combo's he look great

C'MON FORBES

I've scored every round 10-8 for Forbes I don't know what your talking about.;D

Spot on there.

Oscar goes for it At 1;10 of the round in the corner....Ref yells 'show me something' ???Oscar puts it on late in round inflicts some pain...Stevie cut over left eye...pretty sizable

I love how Forbes has marked up Oscar's face more in 6 rounds, than Mayweather did after 12. ;D

Round 6
De La Hoya comes out jabbing early. Forbes has his legs wide apart, and he's really shortened and straightened his punches so he can throw a lot of them. Oscar tries to flurry Forbes and Forbes slips every punch before being caught on the way up with a stiff left hook. Forbes has this figured out defensively it looks like, and Forbes is backing Oscar up with punches. Oscar picks off punches tremendously like we saw versus Floyd so not much is landing. De La Hoya flurries up top and lands a good left hook behind the guard of Forbes right on the side of the head. Forbes recovers, might be cut, and shoots a low jab that De La Hoya again counters with a step back left hook. That punch is working for him this round. De La Hoya ends the round loudly with a big right hand hand.

I swear I thought he was going to jump in and give the most BS stoppage of all time. That was crap.

GottA love Lederman and his ass kissing while scoring...

How do you have it Harold?


"OK guys I have it 3 rounds to nothing Oscar De La Hoya...I gotta tell you Jim I love that jab of De La Hoyas...I think later I'll meet him at the hotel for a circle jerk and let him jab at me...If he can keep this up I may pay for young male prostitutes once the media is gone".....

BUNCH OF DE LA HOYA COCK RIDERS

Steward is speaking some truth at least

This crossed my mind as well. Oscar's face was spotless after Mayweather...


hmmm :confused:


I guess it just comes down to Forbes being a fighter, and Mayweather being a pussy ;D

Round 7
A good rebound round for Oscar, this fight is in the second half, a place not many thought it would be. Forbes seems to be a bit worn down and is not throwing in combinations so much anymore. De La Hoya stalking forward with the jab but not a lot of power punching, he's still stepping back after the jab trying to connect with the left. Oscar stops jabbing for about a minute and Forbes doesn't return much. De La Hoya ends the lull and attacks hard to be body with a series of hooks, he has Forbes trapped and Forbes looks hurt. Maybe a bit in survival mode but slips off and the round ends. Oscar really looking mean.

This whole thing just annoys me.....DLH looks like shit IMO nothing impressive about him tonight and this is supposed to be a showcase for him....

I am starting to believe a fight with Pacquiao might be something I would like to see...Manny would kick the shit out of the Golden Fairy

tnx for the updates all. I actually stayed home tonight instead of going to a bonfire with a bunch of girls hoping to find a free live link to this fight.

Ya, I know, my priorities are seriously messed up. :-\

Almost bro...You caught that ;DThere looking for it...It goes 12 how much do you want to bet..'I hurt my right hand'?;D

Oscars getting pissed,Forbes did a walk at the end of that last round and DeLaHypa put on hi 'Grrrrr :mad:Face'

Poor Millie De La Hoya.

It must have seemed like a pretty good deal to marry Oscar at first. Nice face, lots of money.

I imagine the marriage is now controlled by Oscar's constant threat of lawsuits if she goes public.

This is sad :eek:

They need to stop making embeded excuses....OH JEEZUS Manny is drunk as hell....'Oscar is looking tremendous as Mosley did when he fought Cotto 'WTF two times:o.........

Round 8
This fight has fallen into a bit of a pattern, Oscar stalking forward and Forbes only able to offer an occasional jab as a deterrant. Oscar is really looking for Forbes to make a mistake on the offensive end to make him pay, you could see how much he is trying to catch him leaning or jumping in. More showboating from Forbes as I took a break to change it to the Hornets game.

Round 9

Forbes looks a bit refreshed and glances a couple early combos off the gloves of Oscar but nothing lands. Still, Forbes isn't going away in there and he has weathered every storm possible. Oscar lands a good lead left hook halfway through the round and Forbes bangs his gloves for Oscar to bring it on, Oscar abliges and sneaks another left hook in there. Oscar coming forward with the jab once more but Forbes is very much on his toes. De La Hoya isn't going to the body much anymore but it's pretty obvious this one is dragging to decision.

Good clean fight with no holding at all. I have Delahoya winning every round but it is somewhat competitive. And no holding.

Round 10

Oscar out pawing with the jab, shoots a right that lands over the top. The right that hasn't landed much this fight. They go shoulder to shoulder for a bit and Oscar forces a pair of left uppercuts through the guard of Forbes. De La Hoya hooking off the jab now and really pouring on. He dives in on Forbes with an uppercut and Forbes is hurt, Oscar shoe shines the guard of Forbes a bit before Stevie comes back with some more. Oscar looks very energized here late, maybe this is the statement he wanted to make. Maybe Oscar's biggest moment of the fight happened there with that uppercut.

DAMN!!!! Oscars face looks like he has had a beatdown and that is from a soft punching Forbes....I wish DLH would try to make 147...Hell I wish he would fight Forrest...Vernon would have beat him down by now....I even wish he would have fought my man Verno Phillips...

Round 11
De La Hoya is so much bigger and he stands even taller in these late rounds, it's a big size gap. Oscar not throwing much early and and Forbes doing a bit of pitter pat works, lands a nice left hook under Oscar's elbow to the body but no power behind it. Steve is standing right in there with Oscar and even backing him up this round in a round similar to round 5 early. De La Hoya now jabbing a bit more and Oscar moves to the outside now in the final minute. Oscar pumping out a constant jab, very nice it has Forbes trapped on the ropes and Oscar gets in a series of nice shots on the chin of Forbes from a distance. Forbes is Iron Man though and doesn't go down.

Forbes is gonna make it the distance. His next fight will be at the Alaska State Fair.

Imagine what Cotto would do to Oscar's face

Did Forbes say 'what do you mean, No stoole'? standing between rounds.

The announce teams reasoning sounds like this.There almost blaming Forbes for not getting TKO'd and walking in as opposed to Asking why DeLAHoya is not Taking and inflicting the KO ?? The crowd boo's about 35 sec mark.

Mayweather will welt up and beat Oscar bad..........And I Am no fan Of Mayweather!

I had it 120-96 for Forbes ;D

Round 12
Jeff Mayweather tells Forbes that he needs to throw caution to the wind. Forbes takes the advice and fires an inside combination early. Oscar isn't going to be outdone late though and begins pumping and landing his jab. What a great jab. Forbes gets hit again on the ropes, walks them off and eggs the crowd to cheer. Oscar back to moving forward and now lands a left hook coming forward, very impressive. Oscar is really opening up this last round, he's throwing a lot of punches and he's choosing them well with a more active Forbes. Forbes lands what maybe is his best punch of the fight with a right hand in the center of the ring. De La Hoya isn't phazed and comes right back with the jab, pressing Forbes on to the ropes. They trade in the center in the ring to end the fight.

120-108 Oscar on all cards. Fans are cheering like they are surprised.

Disappointing fight, great performance from Forbes though, to me he's a real title threat at light welter.

I don't think Witter, Hatton or Malignaggi would relish fighting him.

Hopefully he'll get a shot in his proper weight class now.


Oscar looked poor, the Mayweather fight just got a whole lot less interesting

Sounds like a "lame infomercial." ;D

Good choice by me to miss it.

Hornets playing good against the Spurs. B)

Wow,His right eye is muffed up!!

Alright,He did not call on a hand injury...My Bad;)

This fight reminded me exactly of Hanshaw - Jones Jr. That's what it was, a showcase of skills just to get the sharpness back and in both cases the opponent came out looking good in the eyes of fans. That's all that was.

DLH - PBF will probably see a better DLH but I don't think the result is any different.

Floyd Mayweather is laughing his head off and is on the net checking out how much Gulfstream leases cost. :)

:(
An older, richer, slower DLH vs a richer, stronger Floyd.

*sigh

I'm just glad the public knows these guys are ducking Cotto and Margarito...
... something I and a couple of guys were saying waaaayyy back when.

WTF ARE THESE ASSHOLES TALKING ABOUT!!!!!!! OSCAR LOOKING BETTER FOR THE SEPTEMBER SHOWDOWN WITH PBF!!!!! HE LOOKS LIKE THE OSCAR OF 10 YEARS AGO??????

THESE GUYS ARE A LOAD OF :LOS:...NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF :homo2: LOVING CIRCLE :spunk:...MAN :bananasex:......SELF DOSING DATE RAPE DRUG LOVING :knock_out: PIECE OF TRASH MOTHER F******

"OH TONIGHT HE WASN'T THE 2LB STEVE FORBES BUT THE 800 POUND FORBES HA HA AHA..."

"HELLOOOOOOO EAST LA"......FUCKING ASSHOLE

HELLOOOOOO OSCAR THIS IS WHAT I HAVE FOR YOU :pis2:

NOW GO BACK TOP THE HOTEL WITH LEDERMAN, MERCHANT AND GET YOURSELVES A GROUP :skiing:...WHILE STEWARD SITS AND WATCHES HAVING HIMSELF A :alcoholic: WONDERING IF HE SHOULD TRY TO JOIN THE FUN OR TRY TO FIGURE OUT HOWCOME HE HAS NOT HAD ANY REAL SUCCESS SINCE LENNOX WAS WITH HIM AND WHEN WILL WLAD DECIDE HE IS JUST SUCKING MONEY OFF OF HIM AND DITCH HIS HAS BEEN ASS

Forbes was just trying to stay on his feet it seemed later in the fight. Lol Daxx tell us how you really feel, stop holding back.

Ok so you didn't like the fight Daxx. Is that right?

You know what...

Floyd and Oscar that is.

Who cares, we all know it's all for hiding from a Cotto fight.
