He's not Ivan Drago, you can't expect him to just walk through any fighter because he's the best p4p.
Oscar is one of the top 5 or 6 fighters of the last 15 years and he was in the shape of his life. I doubt there has ever lived a welterweight fighter who would just walk through Oscar De La Hoya, beat him sure but nobody in history would have just walked through him and massacred him like you seem to expect.
Go watch Spiderman 3 if you want to see a superhero.
I too wanted to see a "massacre" as Floyd claimed it would be. A prime Roy Jones could have and would have done just that to any version of Oscar, however I knew in my heart that a prime Floyd was not going to. He did beat Oscar legit though, no question about it, which is good enough for me. Oh, and I am going to see Spiderman 3, probably tomorrow, looks to be pretty good, plus I got nothin better to do, and it'll help take my mind of things.
