The reason I brought this thread back is that I spoke to a boxing person, who will remain anonymous for obvious reasons, and the convo went like...
You are putting words in my mouth to say that I am sure that the fight was to pay off gamblng debts. He did it for money one way or another...
Okay retards...why would delahoya sabotage himself by weighing in light and not gaining weight if he wasn't planning on winning anyway? Why not...
I use the word fix because 1. The betting line had unusually suspicious movement. I told everyone I know that someone put massive bets in on...
Oscar has been a pro for FIFTEEN YEARS. He knows how to control his weight. WHY would he not come in at 147 then gain 10 lbs for the fight? Its...
So with a few people alreday suspicious about the Hopkins fight, he's supposed to pull the same act? He'd go to prison for 20 years if he did that.

he has lost all credibility in my eyes.
objectively, pacman embarassed Floyd tonight
Floyd embarasses him.

Even before you watch it, ask yourself why a fighter would give up his huge size advantage. Why he put on only 3 lbs after the weigh in. During...
Any speculation on possible incentives he would have are purely for your enjoyment. I just want to bring to everyones attention that this fight...
Every opponent of Manny's entire career did better than that. Oscar did NOTHING but stand there and flick a few weak jabs out there.
The official version is that a nut who had previously renounced his American citizenship and became a Russian citizen shot him from the 6th floor...
I pick wrong all the time, I never said i dont. However in this instance, the mostly boxing savvy posters here thought Oscar was by far the...
But WHY give up the size advantage? WHY stand there and offer no resistance to a beating? WHY no holding when hurt? WHY no left hook? WHY so...
I lost $3200 straight and $300 in prop bets.
There could be any number of reasons of WHY he did what he did. IM just saying the fight by Oscar was not a legitimate effort in my eyes. It...

What would a fighter do if he wanted to throw a fight? How would it look? Lets forget about tonight for a second and think about how a fixed...
It is not well-known if Aliens exist or not. It is not well-known if Millie likes facial hair on her fighters. It is not known exactly why Oscar...
We have seen in the past that this does NOT kill another big fight. Did the Baldomir loss kill the MW-Judah fight? Did the Raheem loss kill...
