We all knew the minute Oscar De La Hoya vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. was signed for May 5, it was going to turn into a family affair.

De La Hoya is trained by his opponent's father, Floyd Mayweather Sr., making the bout one of the more unique events in boxing history. Mayweather Jr. is trained by his uncle, Roger Mayweather, his father's brother.
When the bout was first signed, there was some doubt that Mayweather Sr. was going to train De La Hoya. In the past he was vocal about not training De La Hoya to beat his son. Over the years, the relationship between the Mayweathers has grown hostile, and that's putting it nicely. During various media interviews, insults, personal jabs and vicious comments have been traded often by both Mayweathers.

The bad blood with his son has changed his position on the bout, which he initially urged De La Hoya not to take because he did not want to see his son get knocked out.

In an interview with the Arizona Daily Star, De La Hoya said Floyd Sr. looked him right in the eyes and promised to train him to beat his son.

"He looked into my eyes and he told me, 'I'll train you to beat my son. I'll train you to beat Floyd Mayweather Jr.,' " De La Hoya said. "As odd as that sounds, he will do it. I'm still gathering my thoughts and thinking about it."

De La Hoya is still not sold on the idea of Mayweather Sr. being in his corner. He doesn't want to be the reason for breaking up the Mayweather family, and he wants to make sure that Mayweather Sr. is 100 percent behind the idea of training him to knock his son out.

"One thing I don't want to do is get in between family," De La Hoya said. "That's not in my nature. Another thing is, I have to make sure that Floyd Sr. is gonna be 100 percent with me, passionate and right there. If he's not, then I can't afford to have him in my corner. This is my life. I have to be ready."

De La Hoya also revealed that he is running 10 miles at a time in order to prepare for Mayweather, and sees footwork as the key to beat him. He views Mayweather as the biggest fight of his career. Once the month of March comes around, De La Hoya said he will put his promotional duties with Golden Boy on the shelf, as he begins the final stages of his training camp.

"No distractions whatsoever. I can say that I'm treating it as the biggest fight of my life," he said. "It's motivation. It's oozing out of me right now."

Basta stylist gani ang kuntra ni dela hoya,mag lisod gyod siya ug pildi. Ka duha sila gi duwa ni sugar shane mosely,kaduha pud na pildi si dela hoya. Kani raba si mayweather grabi ka stylist.

ic, mery xmas, unsa diay style ni floyd bro na makaingon ta na madehado c oscar?

[ernest9]

Roy Jones jr,Sugar Ray Robinson. Mao ni ang combination of styles nga ma kita nako ni Floyd Mayweather. Plus naa pa jud siya iyaha trademark nga can throw repetitious punches w/ d same hand that can hit you at will. Siya ra ang boxer nga maka himu ana. I think dili lang kai ma pildi si dela hoya,ma outclased gyod pareha sa nihitabo ni arturo gatti. Althow dili ko ganahan ani ni mayweather kai hambogero pero i think mao judna ma hitabo.

ic, bugbog sarado raba c gatti,lata jud kaau.. lisud nana skill ang repeated blow using one hand,hope oscar will anticipated dat

wala pay bildi c floyd dba??
