Great question. This is how I see it panning out...
This fight comes with a lot of risk for Floyd, as he could potentially be knocked out. Although he probably won't admit it, Floyd has to be wary of Oscar's punching power, and will be training to counteract and nullify that.
I, however, don't think Floyd will be knocked out.
Floyd has the superior speed, and I think he will use it to run from Oscar. Floyd has said in press conferences that he will not run from Oscar, but then again, he said he would knock out Baldomir in 5 rounds.
Also, De La Hoya has proved everything he has to in boxing. Mayweather has yet to, on account that he hasn't been severely tested yet. Up to this point, he's just been too good for everyone.
Not many people expect Floyd to win, but I think Floyd will be wary/ scared of De La Hoya's power, and will show. Floyd will box from a distance, and pot shot and counter punch his way to a split decision win over De La Hoya.
@ The Real Smitty: Nice one. We're all fed up of that other kid pretending to be you.

We will all find out on May 5th when the two fight in las vegas.
Id love to see De La Hoya shut pretty boy up, but i would put my money on Floyd as I think he has too much skill for De La Hoya.
Deffinately gonna be watching it and willing golden boy to pull it off!
