Mayweather vs De La Hoya

Aside from Manny Paquiao's fight, I also look forward in seeing the Oscar De La Hoya vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. rematch that will probably happen sometime this September. No definite place and date yet, but, definitely, the rematch will happen. If you can remember, Floyd Mayweather Jr. won by split decision over Oscar De La Hoya in 12 rounds. And I was really sad with that outcome.

Now, I am hoping for the best for De La Hoya this coming September. I heard that fans are now reserving Mayweather vs De La Hoya tickets as early as January. I don't really know the technical details on their skills; I just like the Oscar De La Hoya over Floyd Mayweather because he plays cool. And that's one thing I like with Manny Pacquiao too. I hope their being good sports and gentleman will stay even if they are earning millions of dollars already. I heard that during last year's game, Floyd Mayweather Jr earned $25 million for that fight and the said fight set the record for the most pay-per-view buys for a boxing match. Around $120 million in revenue was generated by the pay-per-view and people are expecting that this record will be doubled this September. Well, let’s see.
