    Oscar De La Hoya giving Floyd his reverence is all you need to hear and should definitely put to rest whatever distain people have for Floyd Mayweather. Let’s be clear. Oscar De La Hoya was HIM when he was at his prime. When I was a kid it was him and Roy Jones Jr that was dominating. I Love Unk but he was trying to get Oscar to say something bad regarding Floyd and Oscar did not because he knows Floyd was no joke.

    1:28 "Pacquiao didn't hurt me...Bernard didn't hurt me...I mean, he caught me with that body shot..."
    Pacquiao didn't hurt Oscar with one punch, but he was picking Oscar apart with volume punching, and if that fight were allowed to continue, Oscar's face would have been beaten to a pulp, and he would have surely been KO'd eventually.
    And his fight with Hopkins?? Hopkins DID hurt Oscar with one punch. If that's not the definition of getting hurt in a boxing match, then I honestly don't know what is...

    Refreshing. I haven't listened to de la Hoya in ten years. It was all excuses and cringe before. Oscar has finally accepted that night, that moment the better man won. And it doesn't take anything from you Oscar. You were probably the best mid weight classes boxer of your peak time. The mid 1990's to early 2000's were your time.
