    No. Oscar offered manny the fight, Manny initially rejected, saying he wanted to stay at 135, then Oscar agreed to a better split, and Manny agreed.

    Did you just pull that out of thin air?

    bottom line: ODH's courage dwarfs RJJ's. There's no debating it - don't embarass yourself by trying.

    De La Hoya bitched out BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER the fight.

    Before-picking on a much smaller man

    During-followed Manny around and got torn up, then look to the refs and corner to bail him out of the beating

    After-went to the hospital to avoid talking to press.

    That wasn't his call, it was the doctor's call, simply precautionary.

    Please, he wasn't even cut or dropped. There have been plenty of other fighters who showed up at a press conference after a stoppage.

    Feel bad? :lol: It still hasn't even yet sunken in that the Giants lost to the friggin' Eagles today. Last night was the absolute best thing that happened to boxing in a very long time.

    Oscar, Golden Boy Promotions, The Ring, HBO... all of them uppity muthafuckas got what they deserved last night. Fuck 'em! Fuck 'em in their ear! Fuck 'em in their other ear.

    Jaw's lady? Winners lady? I am sure the idea of me circle jerking turns you on, but it isn't true. I am 100% heterosexual. You aren't denying your gayness are you? Is Bama not your type? Did Bama reject you?Move on. I am sure you are pretty popular at the truck stop or at sleazy motel rooms.


    Reed, if Bama were a 4 legged animal would you fuck him?

    Yeah... I'm not really arguing that. I'm just saying it's a rule that any fighter who is KO/TKO'd has to visit the hospital as a precautionary measure. This is a NSAC rule. It's not like he chose to go to the hospital to quickly escape the press. :lol:

    No. He made like $30 million plus for this, more than most people (especially boxers) make in a lifetime. He has a great future in the sport, and if his sparring sessions are like his fights, he probably should be okay health-wise (not taking a whole lot of punishment).

    I did though sort of want to see the corner stop the fight during a round so DLH would at least have the dignity of being on his feet when the fight ended, rather than surrendering on his stool.

    This is the one area where I may have a little sympathy for DLH.

    It'd be a lot easier not to have to deal with the media after taking the kind of beating he just recieved, but as the head of promotional company he can't. He's gonna have to be out there in the public and talk to the press...and get asked (repeatedly) the kinds of questions most boxers would rather just avoid.

    Not that I'm going to accuse anyone of being gay, but I remember I had a friend in college who used to talk about other guys as being handsome or "good looking" and everyone thought it was weird. Then around senior year he finally came out of the closet, and no one was surprised. I guess it's just weird to me when supposedly straight guys critique each others looks seriously. :lol:

    Saying someone is dorky like Rubio is one thing. Reed is saying you aren't hot. That is gay. Reed also said he likes to fuck 4 legged animals so ........

    You and Mitchell are being ultra hard on Dela Hoya. Oscar took a vicious beating in rounds 7 and 8, and he went to the hospital based on a rule instituted by the NSAC. It's not like he said, "Shit, I got my ass kicked, I'm taking off." :lol:

    Who knows what was wrong with Dela Hoya? Even if his pride was hurt, why can't he take a little time to be alone and gather his thoughts? I mean last night was possibly the end of his fighting career, his passion. I mean if someone told me that I'd never be able to develop software as my career anymore, or never be able to go sailing from Newport Beach anymore (a recent passion of mine), I'd probably want to be alone for a while too.

    I didn't mean to imply I agreed DLH did it for that reason...he may have. I don't really care, to be honest. But his mentioning the press got me thinking he's not going to be able to avoid the questions once he has to be 'Oscar the promoter' again.

    yes that is suspicious, but it falls short of downright flaming acts of faggotry such as purposely gazing at dicks in gym locker rooms, curious jolex.

    There's a part of me that feels bad for any fighter that stays around long enough to get horribly beaten. As much as I loathed Ray Leonard, it was sad to watch him humiliated by Camacho. Same with Ali. Same with Holyfield again and again.
