Furious with Oscar

[Small Amount of Peas]

The title says it all really.


"Hi, my name is Oscar de la Hoya. I've brought you many action packed fights over the years and I never ducked anyone. Until now. I was going to fight Miguel Cotto and you all loved me for it and praised my grit. Since he got thrashed by Antonio Margarito, Im going to fight Manny Pacquaio instead."


Wtf is this? Hopefully Ive missed some threads on the subject as i would expect more to be demanding a fight with Margarito.


Oscar/Pac is a NO WIN fight for Oscar. Oscar wins, it was against a teeny tiny featherweight who made the mistake of jumping up too far, ala Ricky Hatton. Oscar loses, yea... nice exit Oscar.

Here's the thing, though. Oscar CANT beat Manny. Manny will absolutely light Oscar up and force a stoppage or late tko.

Furious. Oscar, if you were gung-ho on fighting Miguel, you need to be just as adamant to fight Antonio. I cannot believe this stupid fight is taking shape. Wake me when its over, im going to pout.

I like a heck of alot of green peas myself, slightly minted and buttered.

Yeah to the rest of it. What exact weight would manny fight him at?

[spade]

It doesn't say green peas Andre


It could be another thing



Yeah, DLH should fight Cotto and Margarito and not Manny PAC, if wont be a nice exit for oscar if he's beaten by a tiny fighter.


Go get your own size Golden Boy and not because it will earn the biggest dollar

I really don't mind this fight. The reason is I'd much rather see Margarito in a rematch with Williams.

I really think Margarito should get the fight with Oscar but I can't see it happening as the $$$'s a DLH/ Pac fight will generate will be crazy.

Plus Margarito/ Williams 2 will fill the vacant championship at 147

Agree 100% with that and if the winner of Margarito/Williams doesn't pull PBF out of retirement nothing will.

PBF needs come out of retirement to put on one more performance against these guys. I think Cotto will give him problems.

Not only that but his inactivity will definately hurt him as well. I think the best fight for PBF would be the winner of Margarito/Williams II if that ever happens.

Personally I think Floyd beats both Margarito & Cotto. But killers right the inactivity could be costly. Floyd is supposedly a gym rat so I'd assume he'd be in great shape if he came back but there is certain to be rust.

If a Margarito/ Williams 2 fight comes off then I agree that would be the perfect opponent for Mayweathers comeback.

If its at all in his mind, you can bet theres some hard sparring going on.

Oscar/Pac is a NO WIN fight for Oscar.

Which is why Oscar shouldn't be criticized for taking it. I've never been a big Oscar fan, but if there's one thing that you can never criticize about Oscar, it's his list of opponents. It's second to none. He's always taken on the big challenges. If he fights Pac, it will be the second time in ~18 months that Oscar will be fighting the #1 PFP fighter in the world. Give him respect for that.

[Lance Uppercut]

If Tony were as popular as Manny, Oscar would fight him. Maybe Tony should have went through the trouble of learning english like Cotto and Pac did.

True, but December 8th was his last fight.
His previous fight was May 5th of last year.

And by the time Williams/Margarito happens IF it happens would put a match against Mayweather around May-June of '09 I have no doubt that Floyd is in shape and keeping up in the gym, but if he's not sparring, that's a huge issue. Skills wise Floyd mops the floor with either, but they both present the same problem the reach of a heavyweight and a non-stop assault, that would be difficult for someone of Floyds size and while the counter argument is Diego Corrales (RIP), Corrales was a very different fighter than Margarito and Williams, he was more selective with his power shots. One things for sure Floyd CANNOT lay on the ropes against either.
