Oscar De La Hoya can't throw straights to the body, he can only hook them. That is why his body shots bounced off the arms of Trinidad and Sturm. Of course Lampley called it magical things.. so I guess Oscar tried to disappear.

The fans know Oscar won the first fight, but was robbed by the judges, he tried to avenge his loss to Mosley, and got robbed again... So why not somebody like Winky or PBF, that would exciting.

Why? Oscar always says he wants to go out on top. Well fighting PBF after he beats Mayorga tonight aint the way to do it. An easy rematch against a punching bag like Tito is an easy ride into the sunset for Oscar.
I agree.
I think Oscar would definitely outclass Tito. Not that Tito sucks... he'll be in the HOF. But I don't see Oscar wasting any energy like he used to these days. He's very economical with his punches. I really do think that he can stand there and fight with Tito.
Do you really think Tito will be in the HOF? Who has he beaten in their prime other than the absurdly overrated Vargas and the robbery against ODH? Whittaker and Comacho were past it, right?
Add to that that he didn't just lose, but was thoroughly dominated by Hopkins and Wright (and by ODH until ODH purposely surrendered the last four rounds), and I don't think you get HOF. At all.

You Forgot Reid, Oba Carr, Campas, M.Thiam, all of them where undefeated.

Thomas Daamsgard was undefeated. Beating him doesn't make Gatti HOF-worthy.

I would love to see ODLH avenge that mistake...I call it a mistake because I thought he had that fight won but made the mistake of not trying to win any of the last 3 rounds.....I think he would rectify that in a big way...no decision here....ODLH by KO in the 6th...
Re: Legend Vs Legend- Should there be a second De La Hoya vs Trinidad fight
why should this fight ever happen again? Why would anyone want to see Trinidad again after Wright?

good observation
It does leave him vunerable to counters so its a good job he has a great chin
Re: Legend Vs Legend- Should there be a second De La Hoya vs Trinidad fight
I want to see Tito back just because I love his style and it would be a great way for him and Oscar to go out and could you imagine what the crowd would be like,the atmosphere etc etc. Oscar also has more chance of going out on ahigh than if he were to fight Mayweather. Give Tito a few tune ups,lots of promos and there you have it,a super fight! I's looooove to see Oscar try to stand toe to toe with him and who knows...his last fight,wanting to go out on the biggest high possible,maybe his emotions would get the better of him and it would make for a much more exciting fight!
Re: Legend Vs Legend- Should there be a second De La Hoya vs Trinidad fight
I don't think that Tito needs another embarrassment on his record like the ones that Hopkins & Wright served up & he'd get one if he rematched Oscar...then again...he'd get fwockin paid out the ass...but money aint everything.
Tito can not handle an effective moving boxer.
Oscar beat him the first time out...Tito got a hell of a gift offa that fight even with Oscar running the last 3...he dominated him throughout the rest of the fight.
Give Tito a round or two in the middle of the fight & Oscar still wins.
No need for a rematch other than Oscar wanting to set the record straight there...but he'll never beat Mosley IWO...so again...no need for a rematch.
Re: Legend Vs Legend- Should there be a second De La Hoya vs Trinidad fight
Tito at his best beat the best mover around - Pernell Whiticker .
Pernell wasnt at his best but neither was Tito against Wright or Hopkins
