Boxing in a whole new light

So, like anyone who reads the paper or pays halfattention to what’s going on in the world, I knew that Oscar De La Hoya was fighting way back when but as I tend to do with boxing, I ignored everything about it. You see, boxing makes for great movies (even though I’m not a Rocky fan) but watching the sport? No thanks. Oh, I admire the shape these guys have to be in, but I really don’t like watching the actual sport until I saw a picture of Floyd Mayweather Jr. Holy cow, Oscar de la Hoya’s opponent tomorrow is a cutie.  Hmm..maybe I’m rethinking this boxing thing.

  2. that’s funny because i realized most of my favorite sports movies are boxing movies — raging bull and when we were kings — but i’ve never watched a real boxing match.

  3. The problem with boxing is that it tends to be boring. Unless it is olympic boxing because they only have three rounds, so they HAVE to hit each other.

    I’m kind of into this fight for some reason. I root for De La Hoya because every hates him just because he is pretty. I can relate to that, so I will always have his back.
