Do you thinks that Oscar vs Floyd will be an another imitation fight ?

[Macho]

I really like Oscar and I'm one of his fan too , but i always see that he continue to be the best pay boxer ...............
Oscar first is an Executive and then a Boxer , always want earn the most amount of money possible and with the less of shots possible.......

Do you guys think that this fight between Oscar vs Floyd will be an another imitation fight ?

Although , i don't know why he in the end of the fight , in the interview he commented , that now he will not going fight Cotto in December , because his wife asked him to not fight any other Puertorican boxer.....

Do you think that he is avoiding this fight for something or just would want to see how could be his performance in the fight with Floyd for then take another decision?

I think it's clear Oscar wants the fights with Floyd because that is the biggest possible matchup, not just in terms of money but as a global event as well.

I don't blame him at all for wanting to take the fight, nor Floyd for that matter. Any of us if offered a list of potential opponents and one of them offered several times more money than the others, and the opportunity to fight in one of the biggest PPV events in boxing history would immediately and without hesitation choose that guy.

So he's right to want to fight Floyd and vice versa, even though we the hardcore fans would rather better matchups.

I also think Oscar genuinely believes he can beat Floyd. He's a proud man and isn't doing this just for the payday.

He'll want to win, even though we all know he wont

Oscar vs Floyd will be boring based on the result of ODLH vs Forbes.

Oscar Cotto I will beat the pay per view numbers of Oscar Floyd II


I'll the the first to say that and it's true. By the way, Oscar would make more money off of fighting Cotto, being as that Cotto won't demand as much pay on his side of the bargain, AND hard core fans would back up this pay per view.

In conclusion:
Oscar, just as Floyd... is using his status to avoid Cotto.

easy as pie

There is no way Cotto-Oscar would make more money than this rematch will... Floyd has grown way too big in the States which is where ppv numbers are counted for more money to be made by Oscar fighitng Cotto. Cotto isn't anywhere near the name Mayweather is... yet. Nor does he fill that role of somebody who the crowd wants to see get his ass kicked.

I'm one of the few who actually enjoyed Hoya/Mayweather. I thought Hoya had MAyweather's number and was doing great till he hit the wall and ran out of gas going into the last few rds.

Trust me, your wrong.

That's all I can say. It has nothing to do with Floyd being popular,
and has everything to do with DLH potentially being knocked out in a thriller.

As much as the ppv crowd is stupid, the people are smart to a potentially blockbuster showcase, between a relentless entertaining fight that's never happened just yet.

Oscar Floyd was a snoozer. Just listen to the people on this site alone, many don't want this fight.

Now Oscar Cotto.... I don't care how popular Cotto is, THAT WOULD SALE. B-)

WRONG. OScar will not make as much fighting Cotto as he will fighting Floyd, that's rediculous. Its true that they would get away with paying Cotto less than they would Floyd, but they aren't going to generate near the PPV revenue and ticket sales that a Oscar/PBF rematch will. Floyd Mayweather is a house hold name now. Cotto, outside of Puerto Rico, is not. Floyd generates more interest because he is the perfect badguy to oppose ODLH, the perfect good guy. People hate Floyd and will tune in to watch ODLH try to avenge the loss.

With Cotto you get someone the general public really has no opinion on, and due to his lack of English and generally calm demeanor really doesn't do much to sell a fight for the general public.

The hardcore boxing fans are not enough to support a fight, as most of them are just reading PbPs, watching it on Sopcast or downloading it from a website afterwards.

Yeah. De La Hoya did look cool in the orange gloves though...

The thing that I'm confused about is who to root for. These are prob my two least fav fighters out there today.
