Why is oscar liked so much?

[JonesJrMayweather]

first oscar is a very good boxer..not great by any means....he's never beaten a prime fighter on his level...he does sell extremely well though..he's not a blood and guts warrior as many see micky ward and gatti...he doesn't fight to the death like morrales and barrera...so what exactly is it that make people dispute all of his losses and not question the victories that he got just because of his star-power...which brings me to another question

why does he have star power as a boxer that hasn't even come close to dominating the sport?

Once you get people to fall in love with you, they'll be there until the day you die. The world fell in love with his fairy tale story of his mother passing away and him winning the Olympic gold medal in her honor.

Come on, you know the answer to that. 100% looks. If he looked like Winky Wright he would not be in commercials, and no one outside the sport would have ever heard of him.

It was the fight of the year son thats why! Not because they are all Oscar likers. Besides the girls because Oscar can pull girls believe that!

you know at first i wanted to say..unless you're a chick or homosexual what is the real reason to be a die hard de la hoya fan because he hasn't done anything that great as far as being in the ring goes...so i don't understand all the supporters on here not accepting that he got beat by floyd, and how they wanted a rematch with shane after he lost twice, that he ran from tito that's why he lost, that sweet pea actually won that fight, that he beat an old chavez then tried to use his age as an excuse as why he should have been given the fight against floyd...

i just don't understand..are there a lot of guys in the closet on the forum, i don't know can someone explain..perhaps a male heterosexual boxing fan that has actually watched fights other than de la hoya's please help me understand...

[Rick_Rack]

Yea there are a lot starting with you! Because I know you better not be talking to me like that! Its probably you that likes Oscar talking like that.

Still laughing mao!

The casual boxing fan needed a "nice guy" to root for after SRL retired(F@@@-SRL).After SRL, Tyson was the big sell, but obviously, it wasn't because he was the nice guy.

And yes, looks definately played a roll in Oscar's popularity. Big roll.

He won a gold medal, fought the best of his generation and given them all hard fights. He is a warrior in the ring and a class act. I can understand more if you gave guys a hard time for being a fan of a man called "Pretty Boy."

[Rick_Rack]

Well I have never done that so cant coment on nothing like that! I think your trying to come out or its you that really likes Oscar!

a warrior against the AIR, not against pbf's face or body.

class act? as in i love my legitimate son gabriel he brings me so much joy it makes me cry but F my bastard daughter from my baby mama blink 182 bimbo!

class act as in on the tonight show saying: oh no me and bob arum are cool we just grew apart. but in reality suing the hell out of arum and preventing the fights that the fans deserve!(jmm vs pac II etc etc)

also making pbf buy out his own contract with arum to even make the cinco de mayo fight happen.

class act as in join golden boy ill make you my business partner and come spar with me in puerto rico but pay for your own flight, hotel, food, and i wont pay you at all for your sparring, even tho your a champ and you beat me twice!

yeah your right CLASSY!

I was struggling to find a comparison to this fight with.
Hagler - Leonard? No.
Hearns - Leonard? Not even.
After much deliberation, I have FINALLY come to a conclusion.

This fight resembled...

Zangief vs. Dhalsim



I'm not saying Zangief is a terrible thing to be compared to. Some people are good at mashing them punch buttons. Just sayin' is all.
