He wants to fight Manny Pacquiao instead of Antonio Margarito. Manny is the P4P #1 by far but he's never fought above lightweight which is where Oscar started his career.
Fighting Manny while it will be a more competitive fight than most think makes Oscar look like a giant pussy. Hell if he even fought Cotto or Mayweather in a rematch he'd look better but Jesus he looks horrible if this fight is made!
by Giant Pussy you mean filthy rich then yea ;D
pac brings in more fans then floyd or cotto.
i would rather see pac fight the guys at lightweight though or hatton at 140.
I rather see Oscar fight Hatton
Whoever Oscar fights it'll make money thats what Oscar is all about these days but I still like him. I look at it like this, for the last 7-8 years boxing has lost quite a bit of popularity and during that time I don't think anyone would disagree that Oscar was the games biggest name. So how would the state of boxing be now if it wasn't for him? I think that it would be a lot worse than it is. And even though I do believe it to be a mismatch I wouldn't begrudge him going out with the easier option rather than one that could make him look bad after all he has taken on people much bigger naturally than himself like Hopkins and has given so much to the sport.
What a farce.......A huge numbers producing farce but just a name event non the less.Getting a little ridiculous now :-X .I am all Oscar'ed out.
It gets tiresome to read how so many people justify Oscar's career choices by talking about money. Who gives a flying one? I watch boxing to see the most competitive matches possible. I could care less how many millions "X" of "Y" boxer makes or how many PPV it sells. It's not like I'm getting any of it. So to answer Lyle's question: A big one.
He should join WWE or WWF or whateverthefook it is called now, and have a last man standing with Mayweather in there plus the Giant freak mayweather already fought. Might be cool to dig of the remains of Andre the Giant to and throw him in the mix, and Hulk Hogan could MC it...until he lost his cool, then rip off his shirt, punch his wife in the mouth and take the whole thing down! Hulk Hogan for the win! Go Hulkster! $$$$$$$$$!!!
(although I'd secretly be rooting for Andre the Giant's bag o bones)
Even Max Kellerman called DLH out on his choice for farewell fight. And Margarito is being pretty vocal about it. C'mon Oscar... do the honorable thing. Fight Margarito.
ODLH has his work cut out for him either way. Pac is so fast and strong and Tony is relentless and unstopable. Either way he prob will lose - he's past it. I've always been a huge ODLH fan but his time has passed.
Oscar doesn't look like any more of a pussy for fight Pac then he did when he was dressing in fishnets and womens panties
In the interview that aired with him before the Forbes fight he said he wanted to become a billionaire. He is on a power/ego trip. So of course he want's Pac. Money speaks louder than words: don't buy the PPV.

I think Oscar is right about not wanting to fight a Mexican in his last fight. What Mexican would cheer for Oscar when he was up against a real Mexican like Margarito??? None. Oscar doesn't fight Mexican and the only color he sees is green.
I presume you want to see a murder then ?Quote:
