-The Fight of the 21st century

  De La hoya    -   Mayweather











This is the biggest fight in the 21st century. Which side are you on? De la Hoha is a bit bigger and stronger, with moderate speed and a good chin, but Mayweather has even more speed and is good defensively. Mayweather is unbeaten in 36 fights (24 KO) and 0 draws. De La hoya has been beaten once only by knockout, and is payed 22 mil + on previous matches, surely more on this one! Mayweather has been boxing since he was a baby and dosen,t eat candy, They are both olympic boxing champions.. De La Hoya was trained since he was a kid.

Calzaghe would knock em both on thier asses :P


11:50:50 May 5th 07 - Mr. Cobra:

Mayweather wins in 9.


19:49:38 May 5th 07 - Mr. The Viking:

Yep well their weight division is super welterweight (154) , Mayweather went one weight division up to fight De La Hoya. Calzaghe is on super middle(168) and I suspect that  Calzaghe, Mikkel Kessler , and Lucian Bute who are the 3 best in suer middle and have never lost will have to fight eachother.

I think mayweather will win by decision unless De La Hoya knocks him out!


20:03:00 May 5th 07 - Mr. The Viking:

Edit: Actually, I'm going with mayweather... he's been trained since he was five, with a boxing life; no candy eating, no playing basketball so he would fracture his knee, he was afraid of his father.. anyway I'm going with Mayweather because he has a perfect record, and is very confident and I think will use all his willpower to beat De La Hoya if he is loosing. He is very confident unlike De La Hoya who already got knocked out once, and didin't make the effort to get up..

So if Mayweather is loosing a few first rounds, he will not let his confidence go down, and will go for the knockout even if he will be exposed to a few shots...and that he is very good and fast defensively!

From An article

It’s "Pretty Boy" Mayweather’s unblemished record against "Golden Boy" De La Hoya’s unmatched legacy. Surprisingly, early Las Vegas odds have De La Hoya as a 2-to-1 underdog to the younger Mayweather.

It has been reported that Oscar is projected to earn at least $25 million from the fight, and Floyd will earn at least $10 million.

The superfight is expected to be the most lucrative fight the sport has ever seen. With an astonishing ticket sell-out record of US$19 million in just three hours, this fight is also set to go down in history books as the most prestigious boxing event of all-time.

"this fight is also set to go down in history books as the most prestigious boxing event of all-time."

Really? What about that Ali guy.. or that Tyson guy =)


21:23:33 May 5th 07 - Mr. The Viking:

Hmm not sure why it is said to be the most prestigious event of all time, maybe because It's the fight in boxing history with the most viewers(not even sure)??

Even though I'm not a fan of Ali or tyson, I think it will be one of top 5 fights in boxing history mainly because of all the trash talking of mayweather and his confidence over the most known boxer in Las Vegas and the states and the most watched one in the states. Also, the 4 documentries on the fight that had an average of 4 million viewers per documentry is what I think will make it the most watched fight live!


21:51:18 May 5th 07 - Mr. The Viking:

Read  this article...

It says  that  they  want  to beat  the records of payper view of 1.99 million viewers of tyson's match and 113 million dollars us made, and also that De La Hoya said he will be training only one week after the contract has been made(6 months of preparation  before the fight) and mayweather said to his coach to get ready in 2 hours to go to the gym after the contract had been made!

Edit: Look on google news what it says:
all 1,025 news articles »


21:54:39 May 5th 07 - Mr. Thor:

Hear Hear Osiris ! Calzaghe is the man !!


00:09:16 May 6th 07 - Mr. The Viking:

Theyre not the same division, and Calzague would get beaten by Lucian Bute 19-0-0 (16 KO) who has a better technique than him! + that he's from Romania like me =)


02:55:53 May 6th 07 - Mr. Half Baked:

Boxing is dead, MMA is where the real fighters are at nowadays.


07:25:46 May 6th 07 - Mr. Draven:

mayweather won ;)


11:34:56 May 6th 07 - Lord Osiris:

yeah :( mayweather didnt do jack.. Oscar ftw


12:35:28 May 6th 07 - Mr. Twamao:

Mayweather didnt have to do anything to win, just avoid being knocked down.  Two words: Bob Arum.  He's the best promoter there is. 


13:38:30 May 6th 07 - Mr. Blue Rose:

He shouldnt coach Pac-man, hes not worthy...


23:44:12 May 6th 07 - Mr. The Viking:

WOw, after watching the fight on PPV yesterday I thought that judges had made a bad decison... I still wonder how come 2 judges an see something completely different in the ring..

If Mayweather retires, he's a black pussy, he talks so much and can't do *beep* in the ring, he slaps like a woman and can hardly knockout a good opponent. Also, He is one of the best actors in boxing!


19:42:38 May 7th 07 - Mr. Haywood Jablowme:

mayweather beat rocky balboa.  That is the only thing that matters!!
