The Fraud that is Oscar De La Hoya

[aburwell89]

He lost me in the second paragraph with the SRL-Ashton Kucher analogy, I'm not a SRL fan but that is just foolish....I'm trying to read the whole article but the bias is soo thick you would think the guy walked in on de La Hoya boning his lady or something.....
1) What? His fifth fight dude cmon...really? Mayweather had 20 something pro fights already under his belt....horrible start...
2)Nitpicking under 15 fights this guy is busting nuts still. So what if that was a gimme, I guess by this guys standard guys got fight for the title by 10 fights...
I'v read over most of the rest and I'm done....so what ODLH was a big SF/lightweight geez this guy must really hate Celestino Caballero.

Agreed. I may not be a very big SRL fan either, but any man that can step in the ring with a guy like Tommy Hearns and walk out a winner is worthy of respect.

Rubbish. This guy is clueless.

And hey, don't mess with Dude Where's my Car. Its a work of art and will go down along with Casablanca, Citizen Kane and the Silence of the Lambs as alltime great Movies. LOL.

You can make some arguments against ODLH, but this certainly wasn't a argument made with 1 ounce of validity.

Exactly.. I thought before I read the thing, "hmmm, De La Hoya a Fraud? That's going to be a pretty tough sell". But I was interested in what angle he might take, at first.. The fact that it's basically targeted at the one aspect of DLH's career you CAN'T discredit, is just bizzare.

I never even caught the SRL diss in there, had to go back to read it. This guy makes me want to puke this is just one of those things that you wish you didn't read. Kind of like watching that guy who hates Zelenoff on youtube, Claudio

Apparently he didn't find Saddo's to his liking: "Thanks for linking my story to your website. I laughed myself silly reading the angry comments from your totally uninformed readers. How they can dispute someone having a 6 inch height advantage and a 12 inch reach advantage, I don't know."
Make sure you steer them to the addendum I added, just for them.


I personally can't stand ODH, but there's no denying that he has fought a tremendously high level of competition throughout his career.
SRL not a great fighter? What a fucking clueless fucktard.

Good. Maybe he will sign up and come here, and we can tell him he's fulla shit directly to his glowing monitor. Shock Jockeying Journalist Fraudster Hypocrite. But I mean that in a polite way.

I think the De la Hoya Vs. Floyd hype is starting already.

ODLH just got swiftboated (and i'm a republican): using his strengths against him. More than any recent champion he faced all comers. The list of boxers he fought is among the best in history. The only argument against ODLH is that he lost his biggest fights, and even that's arguable, when you consider the controversial decisions against trinidad and Mosely (II).

Last I checked, boxing is divided by weight classes, not "size" reach or height classes. Yes, ODLH dominated as a lightweight, probably b/c of his height/reach advantage; but than do we take credit away from tommy hearns when he had similar advantages as a welter?

LOL this guy is such a prick, and it turns out it's nothing but a blog site certainly that could have never been run by any self respecting editor. Haha check out his profile. What an absolute twat and a liar to boot.

No comment. I was chanting Mosley's name when he fought De la Hoya.

Whoever wrote that should be shot. Twice.
