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. Absolutely great question.

I am sorry De La Hoya is not fighting Witherspoon, Are you ok ?
But he is Fighting someone named Mayweather , which who I think is going to give him a butt whipping , he is just too fast for the Golden Boy .

This is going to be a close fight. I am picking Mayweather but if DeLaHoya cuts off the ring and can land alot of shots and slow Mayweather down, Mayweather is in trouble late in this fight. Mayweather by close decision.

Floyd will win this fight east by decision unanmious decision he won't knock Oscar out though but he will beat him to the punch all night like Hopkins did and Mosley did. Oscar can't take body punches well and speed is power Floyd is too quick. Oscar has problems with soul brothas with good boxing skills.
