    I didn't see Mayweather throw anything over the Jab...Oscar just stopped throwing it.

    Any tactic changes Floyd makes Oscar can too. So the "fight" will be very similar

    If Oscar didn't think he could beat Floyd the first fight wouldn't have happened.. same goes again methinks

    Definitely not an upset for me. I'm one of the many boxing fans who believes that ODLH could(and should) have won that first fight.

    ICB is asking if you'd consider it a "BIG" upset.. meaning it's OBVIOUSLY an upset considering if the contender/underdog beats the champ, ITS and upset..

    so yes, it would be an upset.. i'd say a moderate upset.. you have to factor in that DLH generally speaking is not as "good" as Floyd, making it an upset in the first place.. secondly that he is older and past his best days (still a great fighter though obviously)..

    We all know Floyd talks a big talk, but he said he was on his "C game" the night of that fight, and that the next one will be no problem if he brings his A game..

    The fight lies in Oscar's hands.. it's tough to figure because Floyd really was doing the bare minimum to win, and very few times did he do more.. You can say if Oscar jabbed his way in he would've been more successful, but Floyd would've eventually adapted.. so it's a tough call..

    Upset? yes.. Big Upset? eh, definitely an uphill battle for Oscar, so a moderate upset.

    Definatly an upset, but I don't see it is a BIG upset.

    People forget that Oscar has a HUGE size/strength advantage on PBF and is an extremely skilled fighter with quick hands. I think people underestimate the accomplishment it was for FLoyd to beat DLH

    Agreed, it was a close fight. I hope ODH wins because I do not want to see Hatton beat up by Mayweather again, I much prefer if it was ODH this time.

    Ok let me just play Devil's Adovate here.

    Most of you will say that Floyd is the best p4p fighter in the world.

    Most of you recognise that Oscar is stll good enough to give him a really tough fight and in fact wouldnt consider it a big upset even if Floyd lost.

    So why the hell do so many people moan about him taking the fight

    It would be an upset in the sense that Floyd lost his 0 not so much that Oscar beat him....

    IMO Floyd will be his own downfall...If he keeps up these outside endevours, and trying to live the celeberty life it will eventually catch up with him....I don't care how much he trains, the condition he keeps himself in etc....Floyd will buy into his "I am unbeatable" act one too many times and it will bite him in the ass....Maybe not in a rematch with DLH but eventually...Unless he is smart and only takes one or two more fights then calls it a day

    I'd consider it an upset. I mean Floyd is ranked #1 P4P in the world while DLH isn't even in the top 10. I thought the 1st fight was close but Floyd deserved the victory. If Oscar had of stuck with the jab he could have pulled it off IMO. I think Floyd has to be the favorite going in so a DLH victory would definitely be an upset!

    If Oscar wins it I hope he fights Cotto next because Floyd ain't
