- "Collision Course"
Eigentlich sollten die Box-Legenden Oscar de la Hoya und Bernard Hopkins am 5. Juni 2004 im MGM Grand in Las Vegas nur Werbung für ihren eigenen, bereits geplanten, Mega-Fight im September machen.
Eigentlich.
Bernard Hopkins hatte zwar mit seinem Gegner Robert Allen keine Probleme. Doch Felix Sturm hatte im Hauptkampf gegen de la Hoya etwas gegen den Plan der US-Box-Größen einzuwenden. Der damalige WBO-Weltmeister im Mittelgewicht lieferte de la Hoya den vielleicht schwierigsten Fight seiner Karriere.
Über zwölf Runden zeigte Sturm eine beeindruckende, überzeugende Leistung. Er ließ dem "Golden Boy" keine Chance - doch die Punktrichter in Las Vegas waren anderer Meinung und werteten für de la Hoya. Ein Fehlurteil, wie es im Buche stand.
Sturm war zwar seinen Titel los, wurde aber über Nacht weltweit populär. Es war der Grundstein für eine der erfolgreichsten Karrieren im deutschen Profiboxen. Seit diesem denkwürdigen Abend in Las Vegas wurde Sturm noch drei weitere Male Weltmeister und ist der einzige deutsche Boxer, der sich vier Mal auf den WM-Thron setzen konnte.
Jetzt will Felix Sturm seinen vierten WM-Titel im Blick: am Samstag, den 8. November 2014, steigt Sturm in der Stuttgarter Porsche Arena erstmals als Supermittelgewichtler in den Ring. Sein Gegner: der zweimalige Champion Robert Stieglitz - es ist der Super-Fight des Jahres in Deutschland!
SAT.1 wird Sturm vs. Stieglitz am 8. November 2014 LIVE und EXKLUSIV im Rahmen von ran: Boxen ab 22.30 Uhr übertragen. Zudem wird es auf ran.de einen Live-Stream der Veranstaltung geben.
Anyone who knows anything about boxing knows that Felix clearly won this fight!
All three judges giving the last round to Oscar is insanity. But hey thats US boxing apparently
Yeah, de la Hoya was fat at middleweight. One division too high for him. Note the soft abdomen. Also wore a high cup (basically the WBA belt) in the Vargas fight also. Clearly Hopkins noticed this studying Oscar leading up to their fight. As we all know how that turned out. He knew Oscar was covering an obvious weakness. Why else would he try to wear a cup so high, when it’s against regulation? You know he probably pushed the cup super low backstage to pass the commission. Or just payed them 😉
💯 agree
Just like de la Hoya beat Mayweather
If the Contract with Hopkins were not fixed he would won the Fight. Much Money out there. Everybody thought it will be easy Sparring against Felix, they proofed wrong. Except the Decision it was a great Fight.
The German guy won the fight. Sorry Oscar!
Bosnian

Sturm completely dominated the distance and connect percentage. This was an absolute robbery. Kudos to Lampley (usually a de la Hoya homer) to admit that Sturm should have won.
Aaron Figueroa
yeah but now a days sturms matches are awarded and given to him when he fights in Germany
@@rodolfomorenoiii135 does that mean he deserved to be robbed here? this robbery blocked him from getting the undisputed big money fight with hopkins.
Kudos I don't know. It just tells you how bad this actually was. In fact, I found myself rooting for Oscar's opponents repeatedly just because the commentary was so obviously biased.
Percentage isn't used to score a fight.
@A C H I'm impressed by the things you know. Kudos.
"The eyes chico; they never lie." You can tell by his eyes that Oscar knows he lost.
He was clearly surprised when he got the decision
A set up ! Nothing more
Gift the title to de la Hoya,Then make a ''BIG PPV'' fight between Oscar and Hopkins
Boxing is a savage joke
He absolutely knew he lost, look at his face before thy announce the decision. He never expected to have won this fight, and he should've admitted. What a shame for boxing, they just wanted to become the Hoya/Hopkins fight to happen!
Just like Pernell Whitaker’s 🥊Lesson he got served, a while back...
That was pure sparring session for Felix Sturm and he won most of the rounds easily...

One of the biggest boxing robberies of all time.
Boxing is business. They wont throw away the bhop fight. Vegas robbed oscar a win too on mosley. Mosley's career also was on downhill and they have to save hiss ass to fight big for them another day. bet wisely🤑
This is one time when de la Hoya should have disobeyed his trainer in the corner with that shell defense he was using. Remember everyone that Floyd Jr was taught these things when he could walk by three professional boxers in the family. At the beginning of the fight when they said Papa Floyd had been trying to turn Oscar into a blaxican, I thought it was kind of funny but then I knew what he was talking about once I saw it happening. Oscar always fights best when he's on his toes and using the jab and standing tall but in this fight he was using that shell defense where you duck down and try to dodge punches like this and he even had his left shoulder up like Floyd uses it. Again, Floyd learned that thing 40 years ago. I think the guy won and it works to draw. I'm not going to put it all on Papa Floyd because after all Oscar is the guy paying his trainer lots of money. It was just no reason to try to change Oscar's way of fighting and most especially against someone that could have been destroyed if only Oscar would fall the way he normally does which is on the toes and the jabs. he's absolutely flat-footed and crouching down in that freaking crab defense and you see what happens when people really don't know how to use it or have just learned it. That's not an excuse for Oscar but at some point if you're a fighter you've got to start thinking to yourself I'm paying this trainer and this little technique he's giving me ain't working because it's so foreign to me. If Dale or you would have come into that fight just like you did against Trinidad and Mosley, even though he had a loss that was a little controversial in those, his fighting style is on the toes and jabbing until he can use his reach because he has a Long reach for somebody his height. I could be wrong but I think they said Oscar's reach was longer by one inch compared to the Bosnian German. At the absolute worst it should have been a draw and that's at the worst. Don't everybody come at me because I said Papa Mayweather shouldn't have been teaching Oscar that defensive strategy when he's in his thirties and he's not going to pick it up easily or be productive and we saw that it wasn't productive. in the middle of the fighter at some point I felt like Floyd senior was going to say okay listen Oscar I want you to fight like you did against Trinidad. He lost against Trinidad but I think anybody that has seen that fight remembers his corner told him he was about four rounds ahead so Oscar just went on the bicycle the last four rounds or whatever. With Mosley it was a controversial loss. He was doing decent against Hopkins but that liver shot was the end. When he fought Mayweather and backyard, this is when the guy was having all kinds of problems outside of the Ring from what I've always seen and been told. Wasn't he doing some weird things and people had hidden cameras and then sold the video to paparazzi? I don't know if you guys have heard that story but apparently he was dressed in female underwear before sex with the lady. I think he was also drinking like mad during those days too because when he came into Pacquiao and Mayweather fight, he did not look in shape and he looked flabby. He really didn't look that much in shape in this fight to be honest but that's not taking it away. Usually he comes in with a tan and his skin is kind of like golden because Oscar has light colored skin anyway. When he comes in and there's no color on his skin then that lets me know he hasn't been outside jogging like he had been his entire career so this fight and then in the Pacquiao and Mayweather fights, go back and just look at his shape and his body and try to tell me that he worked hard for those fights he thought he was going to be able to go in there and beat Pacquiao and beat Mayweather because he was taller and he had reach advantage and all this other stuff but that's just not the way it works if you don't train and as Floyd Mayweather has always said,.. easy work hard work and dedication. When white skinned Oscar comes into the ring, I like he did in this one and then Pac-Man and Floyd, I just think he was trying to make some cash and he just did not take time to train because he felt like he didn't need the train to beat these guys and you found out differently. I will have to give him a little heads up when it comes to fighting Floyd because he did a lot better with Floyd then he did when he fought Pacquiao. I mean I don't think Oscar de la Hoya has ever quit on the stool and the corner until that fight against Pacquiao now people that don't like Pacquiao probably going to say yeah Pacquiao was on drugs but not ever proven to be on any kind of drugs that I know of but he did have a fear of needles and that's an honest phobia that people can have. Now if I wanted to do a rebuato I could say yeah it's a real good phobia to have if you've been juicing hahaha
STURM WAS ROBBED. He beat the shit out of DLH. If this fight was in Germany, Oscar loses by 2-3 points or the crowd would have rioted. A fix to save big $ fights for Oscar at Caesar's Palace. Right out of the Don King playbook.
Yup.. The fact that they were talking about the Hopkins fight more than the Stum fight and called this card "Collision Course" was proof that the only winner was going to be De La Hoya here...
this fight was at MGM grand not cesears palace
The same that mayweather got his butt beaten by alots of boxers but the sorry judges gives it to mayweather too much!
@@johnnycardenas7321 wrong! Nice try though. Mayweather has never got his butt beaten
@@LeoS300 no he didnt though
I remember watching this fight. one of the biggest robberies I`ve ever witnessed.
I remember watching this way back in the day when I was a die hard Oscar De La Hoya fan. Even then, as hard as it was to admit, Sturm got robbed BIIIG TIME.
I watched it too...the decision what a joke💯💯
one of the all time great thefts they couldnt have dela hoya losing as the money fight against hopkins was over dave 50
This was one of the worst robberies ever considering every singly rational boxing fan knew if it was mildly competitive, the decision would go to Oscar so they wouldn't spoil the Hopkins showdown. Granted, Sturm went on to get some garbage decision wins that he didn't deserve, two wrongs don't make a right.
Del La Hoya got robbed even worse against Trinidad.
I remember this fight vividly. My girlfriend at the time had never seen a boxing match before and even she knew Sturm won. Absolute robbery.
De la Hoya won
@@justakidtryingtomakeitgrin4417 POST YOUR SCORECARD
Hes Bosniak man we are dinaric and had this Physically ability for Sports Adnan Catic aka Felix Sturm ,Zlatan Ibrahimovic etc
They had to save him for Hopkins
YEAH, FELIX STURM WINS
yea rigged for a hopkins fight. digusting
Hopkins was a different weight class ….. in his prime nobody better than De la hoya.
@@andyreynoso8195 in his prime he still wouldn't even be a top 5 fighter all time at any weight class he fought at... 130, 135, 140, 147, 154, 160.... None of those was he even touching top 5.
@@anti-classist he didn’t dodge one single name and all his loses early one were questionable…. Beat Trinidad, Beat Mosley 2nd one ….. Mayweather dodged him for life till he was old.
The interview Sturm gave was on point.
ya he did. and the interview that Dela Hoya gave shows that he knows he lost the fight. these kind of robberies make me sick. that shit ain't right. 😠
@@michaelscofield31 Yup! that's what killed watching boxing. You had a better chance on picking the real winner fom a wwe match. 😂😂
Sturm is such a champ, inside and out, regarding this fight, he knew there was no victory without KO, wins a decision (imo), gets the usual BS treatment but takes it like a, "Champ".
This currupt decision was ridicules.Oscar knew he lost.
Oscar got his ass whipped.
Dela Hoya knows he lost. look at his demeanor when the final bell rings. and look at his post fight interview. these kind of robberies make me sick and is killing boxing.
He couldn't even lift the belt because he knew he lost
Sorry haters but i had oscar winning this match 113 to 114 close fight though!
David Perez u either are bias for Oscar or u suck at scoring
De la hoya combinations gave him the fight
Boxing was killed when Don King got his hooks into most of the top fighters in it and many fighters got on PEDs afterward (I predicted Roy Jones, Holyfield, and other "blown up" superboys would begin losing right and left when all the boxing associations started drug testing in the early 2000s, and was indeed correct). Now many champs and "top ten" ranked boxers in most classes come from Russia and Europe, where PED technology is still ahead of Western testing and title fights are now routinely held.
Sturm won this fight easily. Oscar was hitting gloves while Sturm was landing clean punches.
WHAT A FARCE!!!
Now why would people lose interest in boxing with judging like this? SMH
I was a Big De La Hoya fan, but not a Fanboy, I damn well knew Sturm clearly won the fight. In his book DLH acknowledges he lost the fight and talks about what he told Sturm after the fight.
I saw this fight live. Total robbery
at the end of round 11: ,,another tough round to score" WTF is he talking about???
Sturm got clearly robbed.
I remember watching this live. Absolute robbery. Think of the career Sturm could've had if he'd had gotten the decision? Crazy.
He coulda/woulda had the same career. He woulda fought Hopkins afterward and been eaten up, then returned to the Eurocentric career he had otherwise. According to Boxrec Sturm fought exactly once outside Europe, and you're watching it.
+jerry hello He did ok. I don't think it would have been that much of a difference to put Oscar on paper as a win in his column. Not that Oscar isn't great but if you're a real fan. A honest one. You will know that Sturm is adding a man two weight classes below his. They would have discredited him for that.
@@slide4180 maybe so, but that was his Undisputed payday to win lose or draw, not oscars. none of that excuses this blatant robbery.
@@jerryhellosome judges qualify clean and harder punches ....some others don't....like in Mayweather fights judges qualify on Pointes
Oscar had no business at this weight. FFS look how chubby he looked! That being said, Sturm won this easy.
How was it easy???lol
@Tarik Hodzic C'mon. This was a bad decision, but nowhere near the worst robbery. Go look up Whitaker/Ramirez or Whitaker/Chavez.
LOL. Mike Tyson was 5'11" and weighed 230 lb. I'm 5'10" and I weighed 165 lb back in college... in peak physical shape. Today I'm 190 lb and can still go. De La Hoya's weight was perfect at 160.
@@taekwondotime De La Hoya was a skinny guy, even when he bloated up to 154. Not everyone's body is the same. Tyson was always short and stocky. De la Hoya never was.
@@mr.b9613 Yes but at 160 lb that's an ideal weight for De La Hoya. He's 5'10". He shouldn't be any lighter than 160 lb or he's starving himself.
ROBBERY
9on
Ironic coming from the Ottke fan
sturm got robbed clearly
This decision definitely is one of the all time biggest robberies in pro boxing history. Sturm clearly outclassed Oscar from the beginning.
The worst thing is that DLH never gave Sturm the rematch!
You don't give a rematch to someone who beat your ass this bad...,You know you'll get whooped again,and your legacy would be the cheating lier thief!
Over the years I've become more of a De La Hoya fan than I was back in the day. Nostalgia it seems has an effect on me. That said, when there's money to be made, they'll move mountains for it. Clearly Sturm won this one, but they had to give it to the Golden Boy. Set up for the Hopkins fight to be made and Oscar was the golden goose. Hate to see it. Corruption is a helluva thing
This fight was the most blatantly fixed fight I've ever seen. Sturm dominated Oscar the entire night and it was clear from this beating that OD had no chance vs BHop.
Sturm Missed Alot At The Start and At The End Landed More
I bet you're also the guy that says Trinidad and Mosley got good decisions against Oscar? Hypocrisy at its best.
Lmao he didnt dominate DLH wdf did u watch?
Actually Oscar was doing decent against Hopkins until that liver shot
Anyone giving De la Hoya more than 3 rounds needs glasses.
RUDOLPHLYRICS sturm seem to be walking him down in the first couple of rounds , but wasn’t winning them I had 7-5 sturm . Some really close rounds .
@@Artistboxing I had Sturm won 5 clean rounds, De La Hoya 3 rounds. The other 4 rounds could go either way, but I think Sturm clearly should win this fight.
lol I know I still have yet to see even 3 rounds he's won.. I've watched this fight more than 4 times now. Where are the rounds, can anyone point them out? It's going to be next to impossible
One of the biggest robberies in Boxing History. Sturm never fought in America after this lol and I don't blame him. Had a great career!
Naw he was skillful but in his career he ducked GGG his mandatory for years. Everyone wanted to see that fight in Germany, Felix petition the WBA to be elevated to super champion to avoid GGG
Even cesar chavez sr vs pernell Whitaker is robery i think that whitaker win that fight and teach chavez sr a boxing leason
@@antonioarias9078still won multiple belts man
Auuuuu kakva kradja?!
Svaka čast za Felixa kako je odboksovao ovaj meč. 100% dobijen meč za Felixa, ubedljivo!
Bravo Zemo...Respekt from 🇦🇱🇽🇰you Winn 💯 % this fight
There is a reason why score cards exists.
What a robery, shame on you!
I use to call him "Adnan", because it's his real name.
A Bosnian warrior, a real one !
A stolen match.
2 rounds won by De la hoya. 10 for Sturm.
Sturm wins without any possible discussion.
So true. ethnic bosnian+German work ethic. The dude was the complete package, and he was robbed. it's sad
De la Hoya lost that fight
Jose Ortiz he won the judges scored it for him duh
YEAH, FELIX STURM WINS ON THIS FIGHT
Oscar got a butt whipping. I wish politics didn’t protect as hard especially challengers
Funny how Oscar got KO’d by Hopkins with a body punch! You know Hopkins was like this will not go the distance and the easiest $15 million I can make!
Felix "the Potential Revenue Killer" Sturm lol... I'm just glad B-Hop got his much deserved mega payday. But we all know Oscar lost this fight. He never should have gone up to 160. As for Sturm, he never fought in the U.S. again but fought in Germany until as late as March 2022. He is currently serving a 3 year sentence for tax evasion.
115-113 on ALL THREE CARDS?!?!?! That's how u know the fix was in. I scored it 117-111 for Sturm! "Everything went wrong 2nite."
Yes Oscar, even the judges scoring.
De la Hoya got beaten like an amateur . Felix is unknown in the states but in EU , he is a monster fighter , a real fighter that won this fight if it wasnt stolen. The "Golden" boy lost his gold colour and he knew he lost the fight . Bravo Felix Storm
Felix Sturm is an absolute beast. Jesus he's good. He was toying with oscar too. I still have no clue how they gave that to Oscar
You can see what Sturm is doing at the end of every round by the way... That's something only big brained Germans would think to do... He figured out that de la hoya was trying to steal the last 10 seconds of every round, so he would use his footwork to avoid danger. Dude was so solid with his gameplan
What happened here is bad for everyone involved. Sturm won this fight clearly and it wasn't really that close. He looked one level better then Oscar, and Oscar himself knew it. Maybe Oscar had an off night like he said, but maybe Sturm was too good for him. There's nothing that says Oscar can beat everyone. Sturm fought a classy, very efficient and effective fight. It may have been the best performance of his career, certainly one of his best, and they stole it from him.
As always, money made them do it. They're breaking the rules of long term success, whether they realize it or not. They've managed to get away with it for a long time, but there's no guarantee it won't come back to kill the sport eventually. The fans have to accept part of the blame, in my opinion. Why? because when boxing crosses the line in this way, a healthy number of fans should have refused to pay for Oscar vs. Bernard. If not, the fans will get screwed more often as time passes. When you let someone get away with an obvious breach like this without repercussions, by rule it'll repeat, and to a greater extent each time until the dam breaks.
After that performance, why would so many be excited to see Bernard thrash Oscar,...…..and isn't that what happened? Oscar fans were happy on this night, Oscar won and the fight with Bernard was all set. They got what they deserved and it's inevitable when bullshit like this is allowed to take place.
The fans should have been willing to support Bernard against Sturm, they would have seen a good fight and got their money's worth. Sturm would have gotten the win he deserved here, and Oscar would have been motivated to get back on track. Oscar could have beaten a couple lesser guys to get himself back where he used to be, then, pending the outcome of Sturm vs Hopkins, Oscar could have taken on the winner. That's how it's suppose to work. Sturm wouldn't have been cheated, Oscar still had a good chance for a huge fight with Bernard or a rematch with Sturm, and the fans would have gotten 3 good fights out of the situation. What they ended up with because of this terrible decision was, one fighter being cheated, a half hearted win for Oscar, and only one more, not very good fight when Bernard stopped Oscar.
Too bad nobody has the intelligence and the patience to let things play out honestly, it works out better that way every time. With the huge money on the line, nobody has patience and everyone loses their morals and character trying to grab the gold that they may not have deserved to begin with.. This fight was trying to tell the fans that Oscar would fail against Hopkins,....but nobody would listen,.....and because they let boxing get away with cheating Sturm, they got the stinker they begged for and deserved.
I think sturm was simply just to big and young for him...
Sturm is not too good for DLH lol. He didn't train seriously. He made a huge mistake. He figured he'd take a quick tune up for Hop and it backfired. He was too big and going for a mistake like that.
Either way, he was honest and said it could have gone either way. Secind of all, he looked alot better against bhop until that body shot.
De la hoya won vs Mosley for their 2nd fight, but de la hoya lost vs Sturm for sure.
Oscar looked suprised when they announced him as the winner
They robbed Axel Schulz against Foreman and there they robbed Felix Sturm.
Feel sorry for our German Boxers who come all the way to the US 🤷🏻♂️and do some beating
Even Michael Buffer felt embarrassed reading the scorecards. 😂😂🤦🏽♂️.
Unbelievable.
Looking back people were too hard on Oscar. They are forgetting he fought a guy two weight classes bigger than him and entering his prime. Oscar was past his best here.
A lie don’t care who tell it. Oscar is naturally 154 so how is it two weight classes. He got beat and that’s it excuses aren’t needed
@@drewgaston189 Strong disagree. Oscar didn´t start fighting at 154 until he was 28 years old. His natural weight class was welterweight. He was also fat and past his prime here, excuses or not.
ElSpewtardo More excuses.... Fat?? Whose problem is that?? Past his prime ?Should retire and stop fighting. All excuses when in fact he just got his ass whooped.. Sometimes there are fighters that are better and then there are fights you just shouldn’t take
@@drewgaston189 Let me guess. You´re a Mayweather fan. lol
ElSpewtardo I’m a boxing fan but to answer your question yes. What I’m trying to figure out is what does mayweather have to do with this?
A fight like this can be a make or break for someone like Sturm. If he won he's career would have panned out different. Boxing is so corrupt
You say it best Bro! 👏
watched this live on German Tv, Felix won it!
So did I, I think It was 5.30 in the morning when it started👍

While his classic fights against Pernell Whitaker and Ike Quartey were controversial decisions that the judges leaned in his favor, there is no way anyone can argue that De La Hoya conceivably defeated Felix Sturm.
How were they controversial? No1 saw Whitaker win except Golden boy haters and quarter got dropped twice, what fight we're you watching
What fight did u watch? Lol like hit the canvas twice & sweet pea just won the defensive part , oscar beat him like he did floyd
@@Montoya1991 huh? Whitaker clearly won that fight. What fight did you watch?
Oh no not this bullcrap again. The Whitaker & Quartey fights were close but De La Hoya did enough to get the W
@@herociouz no he didn't, he wasn't the champion in those fights, you take the belt to win the championship... Whitaker landed more and at a higher percentage... What more do you have to do to win a fight?
Quartey was closer but imo it was clearly quartey winning.
De La Hoya lost this fight. I remember being pissed as hell for Felix Sturm. Sturm fought masterfully and got robbed. 🤬🤬🤬
De La Hoya starts bleeding in round one and it never stops. Felix was the better fighter this night. Felix lose the fight bcs all three judges came from USA. Absolutely wrong decision.
Felix got a really long stiff jab he leads it off his elbow but turns his body to elongate it and his timing is tricky too... Very accurate puncher going to the head
I had never seen this fight before, but heard it was controversial. I see why now...
This Sturm cat has one HELL of a stiff jab; reminds me a lot of "Bazooka" Ike Quartey the way he throws it... completely rattles opponents down to their bones and knocks them back when it lands.
It really was like you said a very stiff jab, just devastating. He landed it at will and everytime it rocked DLH's whole body back. Even the audience groaned at several of them

@@CesarPerez-it8xyridiculous.
If Sturm had been just a tad more agressive, he would've stopoed De Le Hoya. Total mis match, Oscar looked way out of his depth here! Sturm had pedigree and was just too damb big!
yeah that's what it was. Sturm is really a 160/168 fighter. Hell he's there now. 168 title holder. Oscar was 147/ barely 154. Alot of people thought that was his max. Oscar was somewhat slim fighter. Leonard, canelo, Trinidad, Even Victor Ortiz all looked bulkier heavier than Oscar did.
I’m a De La Hoya fan but common he lost that fight
At the end Hopkins saying that Oscar pulled off with last two rounds ahahahha. He lost them both
No he didn’t punk!!!
Felix ist der wahre Champion
Difference between punch stats, ringside and final scoring is ridiculous.
Sturm got robbed but nowadays he robs others to get wins
+Terrence Talbot This Friday again, Chudinov was better.
+Terrence Talbot Yes man, this is so wrong. Just bad for the sport.
Sturm was screwed out of the win because a De La Hoya/Hopkins fight was already in the works (hence the fight night being named "Collision Course") and was hinged on both fighters getting past their opponents. DLH/Hopkins looked more lucrative & attractive than a Hopkins/Sturm fight would have. Ian Darke of Skye Sports said "De La Hoya got the benefit of high charity," and most everyone agreed. I WILL give DLH credit for admitting he didn't look good (like he did after the Whitaker fight), but the damage had been done...
Naw, I give the judges and the "boxing establishment" credit for De La Hoya's win.
Nils Morgel. i know
Oscar definitely lost this fight but what I don't understand is what happened to Sturum after this fight. never made any real noise after this.
Euro fighter. He won belts in Europe
THAT TRANSLATOR got his money for NOTHING. 😂 he just randomly "translated"... nowhere near what was said.
De la hoya simply wasn't a natural middleweight Sturm clearly won this fight
lol no sturm is just a better fighter. Stop coping about this. Oscar was great... But just because sturm was an unknown doesn't mean he wasn't great. Calzaghe was another one who barely gets any recognition for his amazing accomplishments
Dlh should've never hired Floyd .that style was never gonna fit Oscar and honestly it just threw off his mechanics .
Oscar De La Hoya beat Shane Mosley but lost to Felix Sturm this was fixed anyone that this should have known that Oscar was gonna the win to set up the Oscar De La Hoya vs Bernard Hopkins
This the 4th time i see hoya lose a fight and it was giving to him..the first one was his fight with Molina..Straight Corruption.
29:26 the guy says do uppercuts in the middle and the guy translates use your jab more haha
Hahaha 😆
hahaha bullshit !!!!
Sturm win this fight !!!!
Leon Der Profi cry nigga
14:03 ..."Roy Jones, I think thats the softest body I've ever seen Oscar De La Hoya bring into the ring"....pretty much sums up the fight. Always remembered that line from Jim Lampley
lol. True. turm is just so obviously a better fighter.
The only reason he won this fight was so the Hopkins fight could be made. The curiosity of how he would fair in comparison to Tito and since he generates a lot of money that's the main reason. Felix Sturm would of been a really bad match up for Hopkins i daré to say Bhop would have lost to the unknown champ.
FELIX STURM WINS ON THIS FIGHT ON 100 POINTS REALY
Judges are blind 😡😡😡
Credit to Oscar for admitting the fight could of gone either way. Oscar had no business fighting at this weigh class but it proves that he has an incredible chin, truly one of the greatest fighters ever! The Golden Boy!🙌🏼🇲🇽👏🏼🤛🏼🎻🎺🍻
Yeah. Spot on 🎯🎯🎯 I totally agree 🇲🇽🇲🇽 He was one absolutely lovable guy. A true champion
Facts
This makes what Canelo does all the more impressive Canelo is barely 5’8 fighting dudes like Bivol, Kovalev, Callum Smith, Caleb plant, Gennady etc… Oscar was 5’11 with an elite amateur background and couldn’t hang with the big boys Canelo makes it look easy at 168lbs.

You know the score/fight was predetermined when the HBO idiots put Leaderman’s scorecard in wrong after the 3rd round.
and they took away Sturm's 9 ko's after the fight
Sturm whooped him pretty good. Those of us who watched it live know that Sturm won by far.
This is why I’ve never felt any sympathy for De La Hoya. He’s had the deck stacked in his favor through most of his career. And despite being clearly outboxed for a minimum of 8 rounds, ( I had it 9-3), he still gets an inexplicable decision.
So eine Frechheit sieht man echt selten🗣
And people cry about the Trinidad fight?! This dude made history with a robbery. Blind fans man just blind and ignorant
History that lasted only around 5 years, and was eclipsed by Pacquiao's 8.
Golden boy also got robbed against Mosley 1 and he should of won the 2nd fight if Mosley wasn't on PEDs and having the Godfather of PEDs victor Conte as his nutritionist
2 wrongs don´t make a right.
Wow! Awful decision! What in the hell!?!?
Strum was ROBBED!!!!
Felix destroyed Oscar de la Hoya...But mafia is rulling this buisness
Adnan Brate, was für ein grandioser Boxer du warst und immer noch bist. 🇧🇦 🇭🇷
Robbery. Oscar looked like a defeated fighter in between rounds. Even the HBO announcers including Harold Lederman were in the bag for Oscar.
De La Hoya was as honest as a prize fighter can be after a lost suffered and win awarded .
Попал золотой мальчик на очень хорошего боксёра. Немцы могут им гордиться хоть наши и говорят что у немцев два или три чемпиона мира и все просто немцу нужно было больше двигаться и больше ударов наносить больше джебов и комбинации ударов чего не было
Oscar, lost the Fight .
Felix was better, smarter,....
Round for round
Sturm landed more punches than de la Hoya + the better/harder ones
To be honest Lederman's scorecard seemed generous towards Oscar
to me it was more like an 8-4 or 9-3 fight
De la Hoya is no middleweight, just not big enough
I'm a dela hoya fan but man! My boy was over matched
Wtf !!!! Biggest robbery … it’s all about the 💸💸 Sturm won this fight 100% …
Best sport in the world fucked up by this terrible judging and planned money making fight before sturm vs de la hoya
One of the biggest scandals in boxing history! Money is everything that counts...
Felix Sturm whipped Oscar and he was robbed. This is why Boxing is disgusting.
Felix sturm was a middle weight to mid size smw. He was too big for Oscar man
Oscar fights like an amateur, that squared shoulder stance made him a easy target
