DLH gassed out the first time he fought Mayweather, that's why he lost. He was making it look easy when he was landing his jab almost at will during the middle rounds. Though it's the most basic punch in the boxing arsenal, ironically, it's also the hardest to adapt to when you're on the receiving end.
I dunno, Oscar's gonna have his work cut out for him even more this time around. I want him to win bad, but on the other side, I really didn't want to see this fight again. He's still got a lot more things to work on, even though he did look good this past weekend. We'll see, stranger things have happened, and at the very least Oscar does have a puncher's chance.
If he does beat Mayweather though, Oscar's been talking about fighting Cotto (provided he beats Margarito in July) for his last fight in December. Oscar would have to completely turn back the hands of time to beat Mayweather; he would have little left against Cotto, but even knowing that, do you have any idea how bad that would make Mayweather look. A young, prime p4p champ ducks Cotto, but aging, set-to-retire legend wants the fight....interesting.
I don't know what to think about this whole thing. All I know is that I'm not buying the PPV and I'm reluctant to even watch it. The whole thing stinks of greed. And this is coming from a lifelong DLH fan who badly wants him to shitkick Mayweather somehow.
