Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Oscar De La Hoya Pt.4

[@biggamike]

Exactly! Funny how the commentators completely ignored that during all that de la hoya windmilling and not landing squat. Floyd was just sitting in the pocket, relaxed, rolling, and landing right hands. This fight was not close at all. Floyd was landing over 50% of his punches. People really need to turn down the audio when watching fights because Larry Merchant and Jim Lampley really don't know much about boxing.

[@Persadish]

Watch the fight with sound = sounds like Oscar is winning Watch the fight without sound = shows that Oscar's punches never land. Oscar looks great in this fight, but holy crap Mayweather is amazing at defense. He sees every punch, blocks and moves with superhuman reflexes. A much better fight than I remember it being.

[@suckuhhballbag420]

hahaha i love how the crowd gets up and gets all rowdy whenever de la hoya attacks mayweather... even when most of the time floyd bobs and weaves his punches they all think hes actually doing something.

[@raycash409]

At 9:58 Floyd's right hand is SOOOOO SNEAKY & ACCURATE. LMFAO.................GENIUS

[@RandomLevitation]

6:06, those body punches were the inner brawler coming out lol

[@tuptugen]

Totally agreed! Emanuel Steward is actually making the right statements about what is going on in the ring. Lampley is just a good commentator and Merchant is old hater period.

[@LuisRivera-bx1wz]

The judges did a heck of a job not being fooled by fans...

[@kelvinw18]

@ 10:42-10:43 I love that left hook right hand combination Mayweather threw and they both landed

[@tawandachristopher]

@BigBaus08 is it me or were the hbo commentators biased

[@tawandachristopher]

@tacoandbeer is it me or were the hbo commentators biased

[@kelvinw18]

@Blackjaynut do you think Mayweather could fight the way he did against Hatton? I think if he trained like he did back then, then he can. His footspeed is the only thing thats bothering me.

[@Christkid]

Regardless of who you like if you don't admit this is a very close fight then you just aren't being honest! Definetly the closest fight of Floyd's career!! I had it 6-5-1 for Floyd

[@PHilADelZPHinESt215]

"Mayweather said he wanted to go Toe 2 Toe, but what he really wants is to go Hand to Hand" LMAO hello Merchant its called boxing aka hand to hand combat LMAO

[@marvinmartinez985]

both great fighters, watching it today because the fights today are so wack

[@SupremeGodSon]

FYI For those of you who don't know, especially the haters, Floyd Jr agreed to all of Oscar's terms just to get this fight with him and yet some people still make excuses for Oscar losing. Floyd couldn't even pick his own gloves, that's how much pull Oscar has in the Boxing game.

[@svp2010]

@Transformers217 I see your point, but let me ask you something.....what would be the biggest boxing story the year?; Mayweather KO'ing Pacquiao or Pacquiao KO'ing Mayweather? The answer to that question tells you who is REALLY the biggest draw in boxing.

[@BlackOwnedDollars]

@pinoysunoy I asked you a question. Why is it if Freddie stops Manny from fighting Shane when shane is a threat then its not ducking but if Floyd doesnt fight someone its ducking?

[@onlyjoetee]

Floyd has the 3 things a great fighter needs,accuracy speed and illusiveness

[@Jayluvv702]

:32 Mayweather can't trade, :41 pop shots don't stop a real puncher who will let their hands go! 1:58 great move by Oscar against the faint moving forward with the combo. 3:01 great way to deal with Floyd's arm wrestling by maintaining separation and throwing. 4:27 Floyd is very weak in the center of the ring with a good boxer. 7:03 Mayweather got what he was looking for - Fatigue which was the only winner against De La Hoya in this fight. I ain't hatin on Floyd, but he's not better than Oscar

[@fredizzle23]

@ThaHonestTruth gotta agree he was kinda stunned cuz he leaned into the punch but it didnt faze em and he kept on punching , he didnt see it coming .

[@SupremeGodSon]

@fredizzle23 I didn't know about that one. I just remember Floyd saying how he had to agree to all of Oscar's terms in order to get Oscar to take the fight. If he did get to pick the ring size, it's only right because he didn't have much say on anything else.

[@MegaTonecapone]

the only thing about it is that if oscar was in his prime they wouldnt be in the same weight class

[@yourclimax]

haha, Jim Lampley trying to tell Emanuel Steward about boxinga at 8:00 mark

[@blacktee31]

Fuck youtube for downgrading all of YMM's videos to 240p.

[@spartan4272003]

look at floyd everytime roger talks to him.. he dont pay attention.. all roger says is keep doing what you doing in all his fights.. floyd doesnt need a trainer.. his dad taught him everything he needs to know..

[@breakaway2x]

I see a lot of weaknesses in mayweather that pacquiao would be able to exploit. Oscar had his opportunities but just doesn't have the power, accuracy, handspeed, combinations, footwork, and stamina like pacquiao does. Pacquiao would have definitely hurt or knocked mayweather out in one of those dozen times mayweather got caught on the ropes. Don't get me wrong, floyd is an amazing technician, but his weakness is somebody who can punch with power and speed and relentlessness like pacquiao.

[@blacktee31]

@fredizzle23 I was saying to take it to a video that is for that insteadof derailing this one with comments that have nothing to do with Floyd vs Oscar. You were the one who responded to what I had to say and continued to debate the subject. I even stated in my reply to that take it to Floyd vs Judah. Here's a link: /watch?v=Vcoa4PpM4v0 I'll be there making my case.

[@InnocenceExperience]

Oscar is fighting a good fight so far. Respect.

[@drejuan1]

@Blackjaynut Official Compubox stats: Ortiz: 18% total punches, 0% jabs, 22% power punches(26/112) Floyd: 35% total punches, 14% jabs, 49% power punches(61/125) 4TH ROUND: Ortiz: 33% total punches(9/37), 0% jabs, 35% power punches( 9/36) Floyd: 40% total punches(27/67), 14% jabs, 52% power punches(24/46) What fight were u watching Homie? Numbers dont lie... Ortiz was getting dominated in that round. He only hit Mayweather 9 times. Doesnt sound washed up to me!

[@BlackOwnedDollars]

@bimzki1 How was it fake?

[@Jayluvv702]

@KillaKev256 Can't be too sure about that because Ortiz had found openings that weren't there in the previous rds. At that particular moment Floyd had not yet adjusted to Ortiz's surge of agressiveness. it wasn't De La Hoya aggression. Ortiz landed combos flush. Could Floyd really have stayed in charge? With the age gap and long layoff it's not for sure. We really needed to see at least 2 or 3 more rds to get questions answered about both fighters.

[@4real313]

HE is the best boxer ever he has the highest percentage of winning rounds ever with 85% he has the most 120 fights with 5 currently he is the quickest boxer to win the world title ever he is the only boxer to ever win 6 world championships in 5 different weight classes retiring undefeated HE BEAT 13 WORLD CHAMPIONS WON THE OFFICIAL BELT WHICH IS THE WBC BELT HE HAS THE HIGHEST GATE IN HISTORY HE LANDS ON THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE HE TAKES THE LEAST PUNISHMENT

[@svp2010]

@Transformers217 Exactly! But wouldnt you agree that more people tune in to see Mayweather get knocked the f*** out? Upsets is what drives sports more often than winning all the time.

[@yookbest7397]

07:21 Jim Lampley: "Good left hook right after the bell for De La Hoya" Mayweather blocked that with his right glove

[@bujoun76]

It's funny how Mayweathers uncle reffers to other fighters as "muthafuckas" or ocassionally as a "ho"!

[@Travdog0808]

Nobody ever talks about that..Buckled him twice with counters

[@MrGlorfindell]

I laughed out loud when i seen that!

[@Esat615]

lol at the comments. I'll let you punch me 12 times in a row on my elbows, if you let me punch you clean in the face three times anyday. then tell me who won the fight lol

[@whereisg]

@504DickSlanger yup i saw that, floyd put him in check in 4 seconds, that was beautiful

[@topdog90U]

The thing that Pac do good is he throw 2 3 4 punches behind each other, but if you watch Mayweather he dodge punches and time counters he is a great defender who if you didn't watch him when he was younger could throw them thangs too.

[@Transformers217]

@MrIknowboxing Yes, he was P4P king, but he was an unknown fighter. He didn't cross over, until he fought Oscar. That is a fact.

[@oasis4ever92]

Floyd can smile all he likes but he simply can not block a double jab. Manny could be too quick for him, out-work him, and the combination of a straight left to the body, right hook upstairs would cause Floyd trouble all night in my opinion

[@IceeThirdd]

What I see the first 3 to 4 rounds fighters try to take it to Floyd some kind of way but his defense is just to good then later in the fights Floyd's accurate punches land flush and the fighters are out of there. Floyd Mayweather one of the best to ever do it. Just to accurate for these boys.

[@cezarcaruntu]

Uhm, no. In rd 3, Oscar landed 10 out of 47, Floyd 17 out of 40. Clearly Floyd's round. Rd. 4, Oscare landed 29/108, Floyd 33/58. Floyd's round.

[@mfeld418]

Yeah it was more like an over-hand right more instead of a straight right lead

[@BoyDanny93]

Doesnt matter how much they landed. Oscar landed the more powerful and clean shots than Floyd in round 4.

[@Jayluvv702]

@2:12 a younger Oscar could've countered with a left hook that would've rocked Mayweather. @2:39 Floyd gets confident when fighters stop using the jab. This is the time to let your hands go. He's giving up the range so take it! When Floyd makes those intentional mistakes, make him pay! @3:05 Floyd is so open for the left hook from a younger De La Hoya.

[@Gus589]

that explains why he didnt take the rematch

[@bujoun76]

Coach Roach has another fighter waiting for his Mayweather beating. Manny Pacquiao!

[@MartyMMA1]

lol at the begining of the video

[@mrflodstrom]

2.25 ''Straight right hand lead from Mayweather''..... What fucking STRAIGHT

[@MrZingbomb]

@504DickSlanger he held the ropes for a slit second......... perfect counter right hand

[@Knickmet2]

no judges by now know that most punches during flurries against Floyd dont land because of the shoulder roll

[@brixtonmystery]

@BlackOwnedDollars Really? I only counted two right hand counters over the jab the entire fight. I think he might have nullified it with his craftiness.

[@therockja22]

I JUST CANT BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY THINK THAT OSCAR WON...HE GETS TATTOOED THRU THE WHOLE FIGHT...LOL

[@fredizzle23]

@SupremeGodSon DIDnt floyd pick the ring size tho i heard it was 10x10 ring size they wanted 8x8 ring for the rematch

[@Jayluvv702]

@sweetscience211 You made good points. However this shows that a quality boxer who can throw a variety of punches will give Floyd problems. If De La Hoya had been stronger in the later rds he would've exposed many things in Floyd. A good boxer can accommodate Floyd's adjustments by making their own as Oscar did, and can beat Floyd THE SAME WAY everytime. But Floyd's conditioning won this fight, & he was counting on that.

[@Transformers217]

@svp2010 I thought Delahoya earned 60 million, and Mayweather earned 35 million?

[@coolins112]

@upcominboxa330 I didn't state that Manny having won 9 titles in 7 divisions, is better than Floyd.I was correcting him on thinking Floyd held the record for having won titles in more divisions than anyone previous.Why are you bringing up comparing Floyd's opponents to Manny's?I didn't say Manny fought the best out there and Floyd did not, did I?I believe Floyd is the better boxer,and would win if they fought.In future READ my comment, instead of jumping to assumptions on what I actually wrote.

[@Nani17CR7]

Can someone tell me who is in Oscars corner he corners pacquiao too.

[@Brynny211]

@26JIGGAMAN thats what i tell so many people. You cant go toe for toe. what you get from that is a manny pacqiao vs hatton fight.to me mayweather Jr reminds me of those patriot superbowl team which i hated- they always won those close defensive games 17-14, 21-18. always three point games. but it was there type of games. during that same period you had the colts winning games 38 -17 double digit wins. but when the colts played the pats they always ended up loosing. mayweather slows down the game

[@OmarTheGuy]

Look how big DLH looks compared to Floyd. and they dont give him any credit for beating him. but they complain about hatton and marquez being too small. MY ASS!!

[@504dickslanger9]

@MrZingbomb that 1st right hand measured him off , that 2nd right hand made dem knees buckle a lil bit, oscar got shockd wit dem2 punches dats why he back off...

[@bujoun76]

Im affraid "youareallOne" on this one! Hop into the ring sometime and you will quickly understand what im talking about!

[@Gus589]

I do agree it should have been una decision to floyd. but I did have 7 rounds to 5. and comparing this fight to other mayweather fights even the fights against castillo this one was the closest

[@drejuan1]

@Blackjaynut hahaha... what fight were u watching? If he was catching Floyd clean then why headbutt him out of frustration? You fail to remember Ortiz being wobbled in that round.

[@Harvin87]

that fucking elbow of mayweather...

[@brixtonmystery]

@waltbabyluv9493 Great point. Very dangerous game to play.

[@blacktee31]

@fredizzle23 This aint Pacquiao vs Marquez, take this debate to another video.

[@FrizzyBlue]

@tawandachristopher They always are when Mayweather Jr. fights. And can you really blame them?

[@MrGharris2009]

You can tell De La Hoya was about 20 lbs apart

[@llerret09]

9:59 floyd stuns oscar for a split second. not particularly a hard shot but it was deadly accurate right hand and oscar had no clue i was coming

[@youngjj757]

3:10 is actually what floyd gonna do to pacman before he loads up to do his combo's but he knows pacman quick so he will have to move ahead of time which he is he's a smart boxer...

[@fredizzle23]

oscar being a part time fighter and promoter fought pretty good for his age vs mayweather had this been around the time he fought vargas or ike quartey he woulda eff mayweather up easily

[@mookunderscore]

do you think floyd would have hurt oscar if they had smaller gloves

[@Transformers217]

@MrMrSouthphilly Wrong, Delahoya got the bigger payday, since he was the bigger draw. Mayweather was an unknown fighter, before he fought Delahoya.

[@blacktee31]

It's only a close fight if you think the commentators are being fair in what they're saying. Which they're not. Oscar wasnt landing anything throughout the fight, just exciting the crowd. Sure Floyd had to keep his guard up, but that doesnt make his fight that close. I'll tell you one thing is for damn sure, Oscar didnt win 7 rounds.

[@Jayluvv702]

@sweetscience211 Oscars overall ring presence bothered Floyd. With his quick jab & aggression Oscar prevented Floyds opportunities to counter and never allowed Floyd to get comfortable. The flurrys were working by backing Floyd up and establishing room to box. Floyd couldn't cheat in close with Oscar. Thats were Floyd breaks his opponents down - inside. Oscar wasn't allowing it. The heavier gloves explains why Oscar didn't throw the left hook much because Floyd was wide open for it all night.

[@4real313]

Floyd keeps his hands low but is a counterpuncher so i works out down the when the opponent is unable to knock him out

[@gladysrodgers9267]

Desparte oscar if Oscar only fought Mayweather on his terms you know what that saids

[@YoungTon22]

@fredizzle23 you live in a small bubble if you think there is no controversy around the pac vs. jmm decision. again, i scored 8-4 mayweather. 2 judges had it 7-5 mayweather and one judge had it 8-4 oscar to make a split decision for mayweather. makes no sense.

[@Mr2012dre]

i hate listening to commentators who dont know what the fuck they are talking about

[@itsabird]

@Ganjaseedable what about it? if anyone smothered during that fight it was clottey, only thing is he didn't throw when he did smother.

[@BlackOwnedDollars]

Oscar was fucking bigger than Floyd and was towering over him a tad. So why do people actually think something was wrong with him not being about to beat him down? He was smaller than him and it was his first fight at this weight facing Oscar. Plus, Oscar had a good defense this fight.

[@Blackjesus3]

@tawandachristopher what do u mean is it u ?

[@dapunkof1975]

floyd is whoopin that ass

[@Mikelovision]

@777MexicanPride777 I don't think it was the drugs, man. I think he started doing the drugs shortly after this fight. This fight officially put Oscar in the "Old and shot" category.

[@therockja22]

I counted 12-13 unanswered jabs from the begining of this round...MONEY MAYWEATHER ALL DAY LONG.....RECOGNIZE....

[@OTKP]

lol at the BITTER, OLD and JEALOUS men calling the fight, the HATE the fact that Floyd is that good

[@789syrus789]

@bpierce314 i would disagree on the part that he would fell cause if you really pay close attention may HAS been giving DLH those same punches and he still didnt fall not trying to argue with you its an opinion but good call i guess

[@alenkeir3262]

I think DE LA HUYA won the fight. Because he throws a lot of Combination, and he is Quick and he is bigger than Floyd but they give it to Floyd Mayweather I Don't know what happen the Judges...

[@slynbryn]

@bpierce314 I thought i was the only person that caught that. The announcing team didn't even comment on it. Oscar buckled. Floyd has more pop than people think. I wonder who Oscar and Marquez think hits harder. I'd believe Marquez but you can't believe much Oscar says. Hatton is on record saying he thinks Floyd would beat Pac in a fight. He also says he hates watching Floyd fight. lol

[@Knickmet2]

10:29 to 10:38 excellent defense Pac aint ready

[@MrGcmrG]

9:58 - 10:07 is why Oscar stop throwing the Jab and whatever other effective punch he had! No one likes getting counter punched!

[@Transformers217]

@svp2010 Well, Mayweather draws in more people than Pacquiao, because people pay money to see Mayweather win or lose. So he gets a bigger attraction. But people usually want to see Pacquiao win.

[@blacktee31]

@YoungTon22 He did win another round but I always forget which one it was. He won at least 2 but I dont think anymore than 3. Those body shots started to get to Zab after a while.

[@yankeemafia999]

i want manny pacquiao and floyd to fight already man what taking these guys too long hopely after floyd beats ortiz he will fight pac he better not take a long layoff like he did when he beat mosley

[@blacktee31]

@fredizzle23 I'm just saying you saying "he was beating his ass until round 6." is false especially considering Mayweather was the aggressor even in the very few rounds he lost.

[@Uberboy07]

6:09: Frustration 7:18 could have been critical on Oscar.

[@Jayluvv702]

@sweetscience211 Quick adjustments will get to Floyd. Thats why he isn't the best in the center of the ring. When a fighter adjusts on the fly, it frustrates Floyd & he clinches. Floyd's not very good at really quick adjustments which is why pressure brings success against him. Ortiz exposed that. Oscar was actually changing up at a faster pace. But Floyd does make very smart & effective adjustments. When Floyd's adjustments work he sticks with them which makes his fights look different.
