Boos pummel De La Hoya

[Manuel "Chubby" Medina]

The only reason he cares about the boos is he is worried it might hurt future business and cost him money. I am sure his feelings arent hurt......Mine wouldnt be......

I am sure a night or two chillin on his 150 foot yacht or a cruise in the $800k Lambo will make him forget about the boos........

DOnt give him sympathy. He is laughing all the way to the bank.

Those are horrible ways to think...thats material stuff.
Money & material stuff dont matter when you have it all.
Whats worth more to you 1Mil or your mother's love? Ps- dont answer that.

I was at the fight Saturday night, it was unnecessary, the funny thing though after the fight he is swarmed by people trying to get pictures with him and shake his hand. One guy actually latched on to him and wouldn't let him go when trying to walk out the arena. Oscar should have popped the guy. He is great for boxing bottom line. He put together a great event and affordable.

I like De La Hoya, he seems like a nice bloke, even if he does have a squillion dollars in his account big deal, he worked his arse off for it!

With what he's managed to do in one of the most physically demanding sports on the planet the people booing him are obviously dickweeds, or whatever slang the kids use these days.

I think you know the answer.

I'm sure Oscar will get over it. I've never liked him myself, but wouldn't waste my time booing him. He's a promoter now, and all promoters probably deserve a good bit of booing every now and then.

Maybe some of those who BOOed were diehard JC Chavez Sr. and Jr. nuthuggers...

Most probably resent that he stepped into the ring with a smaller man, quit on the stool and it was all for the money when he knew he had nothing left. Although booing is a natural thing to do it's just not appropriate. Still I think the disappointed believers will eventually remember him for when he has brought to boxing.

I was there when the booing happened. It was mostly Hispanics who were doing the booing. They were also chanting "Pacquiao, Pacquiao!". They were calling him all sorts of names. I agree, it was sad to see that reaction from the crowd.

sad really, though i suspect it was more your part time boxing fan that felt the need to show off and boo.

Would urge all those who did boo to go home and download de la hoya vs quartey, whittaker, chavez etc and they`ll soon realise what idiots they made themselves look!!

I don't think it's just because he quit. It's also because people put their faith in him and got let down (maybe some lost money too). If you recall, he could have gotten up off that stool and continued to get pummeled, but he decided to do a brainy thing and quit. I think that's what pisses those folks off. He could have continued but didn't. I also remember they booed Duran too. It could just be their thing....

Nothing he did in the ring makes him deserve to be booed, which was unfortunate. I agree though that being a promoter (especially one that proclaims himself a saviour) deserves some shit.

As time passes the respect will return when people have had time too truly reflect on all he sacrificed in then ring.

The Pacquiao beating is still fresh in everyone's mind. The boos will subside over time. Hell pretty much all the greats were boo'd at one time.

...some jerk off's even threw punches at the guy as he headed towards the back for the post fight stuff, it's crazy how much they hate this guy all of the sudden. Fans are so so unloyal, this is just a sport people take things as trivial as sports way to serious, people are quick to talk shit yet wont get in the ring and do things the way they try and tell the guys actually in there to do. I don't like oscar but i have absolutly no reason to wish him or any other athlete harm...it's really not that serious. Just like floyd oscar got his fame money and everything else those are jealous of from us in the first place, he aint the only one buying his products.

Was his mother booing him All I am saying is I dont think complete strangers booing Oscar is going to keep him up at night........The only reason they are booing him is because he is a successful multi millionaire........Dont tell me they are booing him because he gave up in the pac fight....It is not like he quit after the 2nd round.......
