"Fight of the year!"

So was it all that you hoped it would be?

It was.

Mayweather came out in Mexican flag shorts...which I don’t understand. Hoya fought like a tiger. At the end Mayweather is talking about retirement and not sure if he deserved the win. I’m wondering if Oscar will keep fighting cause he looked great. A little more drama would have been good but it was a boxing milestone.

I thought overall, the fight was rather dull.
De La Hoya has the anoying habit of coasting most of the round and then turning it up for the last 15-20 seconds. Hoping that the judges will view favorably on his late round output.

The last 4 rounds of the fight were terrible for De La Hoya.
All in all, that wasn’t even the fight of the week.
