I remember it like it was yesterday. A jab opens up a huge gash in the first round. Three rounds later it was over. Joe Cortez stops the fight on advice of the doctor and the fight was over. The passing of the torch had been complete. My hero Julio Cesar Chavez had lost by TKO and a young Oscar Delahoya was now the man to beat in boxing. On this day a great chapter in the novel that is boxing was closed, and another great one oppened. Now nearly a decade later it is time for it to happen again. Only this time Oscar is the old warrior and Mayweather is the kid with some thing to prove. While his speed might not be the same and his reflexes might be a tad bit tainted I think it would be foolish to say that Oscar does not stand a chance. He is a seasoned veteran whose skills in the ring can can match up with Floyd's really evenly. If you ask me he is one of the few men in boxing that can actualy beat Floyd. Such similar styles, so much at stake, and if by any chance Mayweather sr sticks with Oscar for this one, wow, what a story line. But forget all that. The point is that in order for Mayweather to realy be the man he has to go threw the man who has been the man in the light weight divisions for the past 10 years. So what if Oscar does not stand a chance, (not saying he dosen't) I stood by my hero ten years ago even though I must admit I had the feeling that it would all come to an end that night. This is for boxing, it is some thing that has to be done, and no matter the outcome this would be something special. I just hope for boxing's sake that this fight happens.
