What do you think Oscar will do? (Breaking News - Oscar retires!!!)

The Associated Press: De La Hoya to announce his boxing future Tuesday

Well obviously he's something building up?

I can't see why he would build an announcement for retirement? Although people that have a stature might very well need it.

Ray Leonard did something similar didn't he? Just to say he was retiring

[:::PSL:::]

I hope he fights JCCjr at his comfortable fighting weight.

i hope its just a formal retirement announcement and yes Leonard did it, and at that time threw it right into Hagler's face

I wishi he would fight Mosely again or Wright.

the robbery in the 2nd fight kinda took away from what could have been a great trilogy, 3rd fight being a toss up, Wright well I'd say it all depends on how he performs, if he doesn't look that good well that's the only way i'd see that fight happening, and not even seeing how it wouldn't really mean much, DLH/Wright should have happened right when DLH really beat Mosley in the 2nd fight, should have been DLH/Wright for the undisputed 154 lb title

I think he should have one more fight because i think every fighter should retire on a win. I think he just messed up on the weight when he fought pacquiao. In my opinion he should have a fight at middleweight against Julio ceasor chavez jr because it would be a good fight and a definate win.

[AdamGB]

it's not just a case of messing the weight up and moving on though

Physically it won't have done him any favours and mentally it definetly won't have

I think it may have ruined him now

The retiring on a win excuse being used by Ali against Berbick, hopefully de la Hoya is not so silly. In a honest fight, there is no such thing as a definite win, even for Oscar against Lil Chavez.....

It is rightly his choice, and I suspect he probably still has enough to compete at a fair level even in his mid 30s, but I personally would like to see de la Hoya go in other directions in the sport and carry on with his promoting, where he can make the Dollars without necessarily taking the punches.

I think he should smash Hatton and than retire

Hatton would be doing the smashing. It wouldn't even be close it would be like Hatton fighting Jose Luis Castillo again...difference is it might end quicker.

Must be why hatton coward out when he had his chance to fight Oscar.

[TheDemolitionDan]

Anyway, I think De La Hoya should move up to 154 and fight JCC Jr. that would be a fun one to watch just because of the names and because De La Hoya would be able to fight and not starve himself to death.

i think we'll see that this year.

Yeah. Give JCC Jr a chance to avenge his dad.
