Oscar isn’t having hot takes today, but he will again and you’ll know. That said everybody respects Golden Boy he’s a legendary boxer, great business man, and as it seems growing human.
Idk about honest. I can never tell when he's lying or telling the truth. Alot of fighters have complained about how he does business. They can't all be liers
They didn't before, they loved the Golden boy!...... Until those pictures came out..... One too many times, where you couldn't deny it!!!😮 💅🏽💃🏽 Followed by some weirdoizm characteristics. I mean, look at "Ryan" after his Tootelage 🫲🏽😆🫱🏽 He dropped a big oL Bag on that one.... Or maybe a different "bag" (🥜 ___👃) on that
Nice to see Oscar give Floyd and his father their flowers. I get sick of hearing casuals demean Floyd not knowing how smart and great of a boxer he is 💪
Floyd is a marketing genius, he knew if he became the trolling cocky arrogant boxer that most people would tune in just to see him lose but he’s also making hella money from doing that, say what you want about him but that transition from the laid back pretty boy Floyd persona to the idgaf Money Mayweather persona was genius🔥💯
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.
Most boxers don't really hate each other, the adrenaline when they're active fighters creates the bravado needed to sell fights. Once they're done the gladiator mystique leaves and the respect enters.
@@216Numbskull This guy won an Olympic gold medal for our country. He fought everyone in 6 different weight classes. Miguel Cotto, Felix Trinidad, Pernell Whitaker, Arturo Gatti, Manny Paqiou,Julio Caesar Chavez, Ricky Hatton etc etc.11 world titles .
Floyd is this generations GOAT. He gets a lot of sassy hate from the Pacquiao fanboys. The excuses they make are crazy. Real boxing fans give Floyd his props.
Oscar is one fighter who never ducked anyone,he fought them all with the heart and dedication to be great! He will always be on my greatest fighters list!
Oscar ducked threats left and right in his career until he was forced to fight Trinidad, and we all seen DLH literally run from Tito all night. Oscar ducked rematches with Whittaker and Ike Quartey. DLH didn't start fighting people until he took a couple L's. Oscar fought a few bums after the Whittaker.
This is the most honest review of Floyd by Oscar! I remember people used to make fun of Floyd Sr. because he had a speech impediment...well, you heard it here. The great Oscar Dela Hoya said he was the best trainer in boxing!
Floyd was never signed to Golden Boy Promotions, Floyd bought himself out of his Top Rank contract and became his own boss: Mayweather Promotions. Floyd worked *with* Oscar to fight fighters signed to Golden Boy Promotions.
@@UcheIhenakwe Golden boy promoted all those 16 fights. Golden boy had an exclusive deal with showtime PPV and Floyd became famous because the Delahoya vs Floyd All access interviews. That was part of the showtime PPV tv deal. golden boy promotions had. All access brought Floyd mayweather to the mainstream.
Pretty Boy Floyd called out everyone in his division when he was at his peak. Sugar Shane, Oscar, Prince Naseem, Kostya Tszyu and even more only Arturo Gatti took the chance. He beat the most hall of famers and world champions of all time. Money Mayweather was defense, angles, jabs, combinations when needed and pop shots. and he fought even tougher competition. He's truly TBE.
Never thought I'd see the day Oscar would give Floyd his due praise. He used to be such a hater but guess that was the competitive nature bursting out all those years.
@@MOG0311Oscar promoted fighters against Floyd and fighters who Floyd promoted. So it was still competitive. Last fight they went against each other was Tank vs Ryan.
Oscar had a piston like jab,he would first establish his jab, Then add on the threat of a left hook, and with his opponent occupied with the lead hand DLH would then incorporate his right cross
This is the interview we needed from Oscar..here on this channel! Really enjoying the mix of guests. class of 91 here...Oscar back in the day had so much admiration from everyone..its nice to see him in good standing ..still rockin the scene
Floyd Mayweather showed that he is truly one of the greatest boxers that ever lived. He fought Canelo in what so many people said was Canelos prime.. Floyd dominated him.
Floyd Sr. said Oscar won, and oscar was retired and over the hill. Floyd was till fighting. Plus Floyd had abnormal test results when he fought Guererro and Victor Ortiz. He was scared he couldnt hang with brawlers
I have always laughed a scoffed at people who talk down on Floyd as a boxer… as a person, there’s more than an argument, but as a boxer, he is simply one of THE best ever.
I always appreciate Oscar, even when he was down. He puts on a great show. He gave the best fights when he fought the best, and puts together the best fights possible
Roger took over from his dad. Floyd Sr went to jail or something and lost his place. That’s why he was so upset and a little jealous. He learned from them both though.
He literally said he didn't win. He said "Floyd closed the show" Just casually hating in the comments 😆 after All Oscar Just said about Floyd. You should be ashamed 🤡
It’s get interesting when ur resilient while people still hating, their hate becomes out admiration.. Floyd loved himself and his family which kept him grounded. He kept the haters on they toes
Shout out to Oscar for keeping it real and giving credit where credit is due. What I learnt from this clip is in life dont have any regrets because the saddest thing is speculating what could have happened. Strike while the iron is still hot
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...
This is awesome to see because Oscar has insight not many others have. For him to offer this level of transparency makes me appreciate the sport even more. Dude was such a great fighter himself
I didn’t expect to hear him talk about mayweather like that because of their history…but there’s definitely respect there …. Good interview….Oscar a aight dude….
Canelo and pac and Oscar werent tough enough? Because that is who Floyd ran thru....Perhaps it was tougher for Oscar because he wasnt as good as Floyd so maybe you have a point...lol
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.
