Since stepping up to weights where people have been roughly the same reach or hight as him he has done very little to impress as the class of people he fought have been arguably pathetic for a P4P king... Judah was porrly the best natural talent he fought and caused mayweather a bit of trouble early on, also it looked like he hurt him - Now De la hoya is a class's above judah, i would say hits alot harder and there isn't a great deal of difference in their hand speed either, add that to the fact Floyd will be the smaller guy and the chance that the big ocasion might get to him you can see why quite a few people are picking Oscar.

Oscar aint no chump, he isn't going to go into a fight with a guy he has fuck all chance of beating - hopkins was a buisness move IMO and nothing more, and Oscar always had the excuse as to why he lost before he even got in the ring with mayweather.

Finaly, Mayweather is a PRICK so alot of people will vote de la hoya simply out of spite.
this is a business decision too tho, he wants to make mayweather a big name so when he has mayweather fight the guys he promotes they can be bigger draws
