i'd like to see de la hoya win... mix things up a little. he says he knows hopkins one flaw. i hope he reveals it. that'd be cool. shows there IS brain, not just brawn in boxing.

I'm a big Hopkins fan, something about de laHoya bothers me... the guy is just too happy or something.

Re: De lahoya or hopkins

i think the the vegas lines are 30 to 1 , i have never seen De La Hoya sch an underdog ...

I'll put my chips on hopkins...

The last De la Hoya's fight was a joke, he was fat (had to increase weight so he could fight in the other federation) and the german guy could've knocked him in two ocassions but he held back (won a million bucks just for just fighting) and De la Hoya won by points. It was funny when they showed Hopkins on camera (he fought previously to De la Hoya's fight) and he had this scared look everytime the german landed some good punches... guess he didn't wanted to lose the millions he'll get with saturday's fight.

Anyway, Hopkins is bigger and stronger, I hope he kicks the pretty boy's ass... :RockOn:

Re: De lahoya or hopkins

There is no reason why Hopkins shouldn't win. But for some reason I have a gut feeling that Oscar will win...

#257924Post 11 of 30

Del La Hoya in 11...better shape then hopkins.

#258095Post 12 of 30

de loa hoya hands down. He's going to slap hopkins around like ike did tina.

i hope hopkins knocks his ass out..

#258153Post 14 of 30

I really don't like De La Hoya he's too fake so I'd like to see Hopkins win but for some reason I feel De La Hoya will win. There's just something about big fights and him.

#258635Post 22 of 30

Re: De lahoya or hopkins

i didn't get to watch the fight but i heard de la hoya got knocked out with a body blow WTF? :AssKicki:

#258716Post 24 of 30

Yay for Hopkins... That guy is one of the most undervalued boxers of all time.... Took out Trinidad and De La Hoya like nobody's business....

#258765Post 25 of 30

good fight, enjoyed watching. i knew Hopkins would do exactlly what he did. De La Hoya is just not that powerful. Hopkins wasn't even tired the whole match. Oscar, was just taking too much punishment.

the first fight was cool because of the quick KO, but then they had to fill about an hour and a half will really stupid commentary about how De La Hoya might have taken a painkiller. i am sure that he knows that is illegal and he would have to forfit the match, if he did.

Re: De lahoya or hopkins

forgot to add, i would really like to see Hopkins and Roy Jones fight. that would be a hell of a fight. Hopkins is a great boxer.he hasn't lost in like 11 years.

that would be a good fight, but the weight difference is too much....

Roy Jones vs Klitschko now that would be more of a possibility and quite a power fight....

Re: De lahoya or hopkins

That was a wicked body shot... Oscar was on the ground writhing in pain...

#259084Post 29 of 30

Re: De lahoya or hopkins

Oscar said that hopkins hit him "on the button"

last time i checked.....there was no body part named "the button" :wink:

Re: De lahoya or hopkins

Hopkins is a better fighter than DeLaHoya. But in this fight, DLH was the better in the first rounds. But after...... HOPKINS IS THE CHAMPION!!!!
