mayweather -200
del la hoya +170

I hear the experts say this one could go the distance cause mayweather doesnt have enuff pop to put Del la hoya down. I hate boxing judges cause too many fights come off like they are FIXED.

MY PICK ......DEL LA HOYA

You asked for opinions and that is mine.

i am trying to make a case for de la hoya but it all comes down to speed IMHO.....and oscar has fought twice in 3 years.....big difference.....If it took place 4 yrs ago it would be close to a pick -em.......

oscar plusses - Angular fighter, bigger, big heart and smart...more ko power

mayweather plusses - condition, age, speed, speed, speed.....did i say speed????

** will i be shocked if oscar wins......a little....

i think mayweather although i hate him

Ditto. I've seen many fixed fights where the obvious winner ... didn't win. I can't bet on a fix though. I have to bet the fight and hope the fix isn't on.

there are occasions that there are bad decisions.....but i highly doubt any fighters are throwing anything......look at their faces and cuts......if there is any improprieties it will lie with the judges....

[THENDY]

i dont think either of these fighters are involved in a fix......just the judging even in BIG fights has been way too suspect for my money.

[SACPAC]

Since this is a fight that they say will bring boxing back...Make since to me that the fix is in & will be a draw...Pulling for Oscar...Threw $20 @ +1200 on the draw...

[THENDY]

BIG FIGHT LIKE THIS.....best thing would be a late round KO by someone

[TwoTonTony]

no fight will bring boxing back....too much damage done and the only major sport with no governing body....too many belts....too many promoters.....

only a couple good weightclasses left...most of the up and coming fighters are european.....so the fan following is not there and UFC is gaining a younger audience....no fixes there.....JMHO

[THENDY]

yep...BOXING killed itself. They all have belts and they are about as valuable as the ones you get a WALMART .
