ODLH may not retire

[Chino]

ODLH has hinted that he may not retire on past interviews:
ESPN - De La Hoya shies away from retirement talk - Boxing

If ODLH wins with style, his confidence may increase, if so, that may open the possibility of facing someone that is more "appropiate".

oscar is just interested in money

Who isn't? Not only in boxing but even you and me would be more interested in cashing the bigger paycheck.

But, if he faced someone more "appropiate", wouldn't it be good? Not only would it be fair and competitive but for all the people that hate him it would be a great opportunity to see him loose.

I think that Oscar will retire after this fight. Shame really, I wanted to see him fight Margarito!

It would not even be a close fight, Margarito would hit ODLH once to the body and ODLH would fold and in a faster manner than he did against Hopkins.


Wait, here will come chino saying that Miguel fights his first prime fighter and then lost, which is bullshiet, because the last prime fighter was Quintana. Cotto beat Quintana, Quintana beat Paul Williams Paul Williams beat Antonio Margarito, HELLO! Cotto beat Quintana in 5 rounds, it took Paul Williams 13 rounds. Why isn't Tony calling out Williams? I wonder why that is? There are only 3 fighters today who are willing to face Margarito and those are Clottey, Williams and Cotto. Credit to Cintron for trying. Cotto is not a ducker and Cotto has beat plenty of fighters that were undefeated before they stepped in the ring with him. How long has Tony been a welter? Tony is a one division fighter and that is it. This does not make him all that and I do believe that in the rematch, Miguel will win. But for now Chino, you may go on talking pendejadas, but you shall see. I am not trying to take anything away from Tony but you are trying to take away from Miguel. Which makes you a pendenjo at best. So chino, please shut the phuk up with that same bullshiet you have been saying over and over, enjoy the short live victory son.

Oscar will fight again because there is no one in GBP who can draw and make money like him besides Hatton. I strongly believe he will fight again. If Margarito is still champion by next summer, it will probably happen. DLH I'm sure would like his last fight to be for a championship. Also by that time Margarito will have his name out there more

De la hoya will retire the same way floyd is "retired". This current circus he putting on is kind of a dud, same with the way floyd just all of the sudden bounced. Both guys will wait for another oppurtunity for the focus to be solely on them and have this great comeback. Both of these guys have plenty of other shit they could be doing but none of it has them as the main focus, thier ego's are way to big to sit around and play in the background if they still have the phsically ability to swing thier arms. Both love money but that's not the reason, hell they both have enough to cash out now and support everyone on this board for the rest of our lives if need be thier heads are just to big. But hell as long as they are gettin people to watch and better still pay to watch, i don't blame them most fans are temporary but bills are forever !!!! I'd fight my grandma if i could get enough people to pay to watch.

Margarito would hit ODLH once to the body and ODLH would fold and in a faster manner than he did against Hopkins

The body punch to ODLH is so overrated, as overrated as Cotto. ODLH got KOed ONCE with a body punch from a way bigger guy and since then people go "Oh, next fight he's going down with a punch to the body" with every fight and nothing happens. ODLH could go down against Margarito from a punch to the body or the face or whatever, I am not saying he won't. Interesting how nobody complained about ODLH taking that fight, huh? Oh well, ODLH taking challenges as usual, his resume is enough proof.
The body punch that made Cotto sit on the ropes when the fight was barely starting on round 2 was pretty good too.

Wait, here will come Chino

*Chino hears his name mentioned and walks back to the thread*

saying that Miguel fights his first prime fighter and then lost, which is bullshiet, because the last prime fighter was Quintana

Quintana is a good example of what happened to Cotto. Here you have Quintana fighting all these journeymen and when he finally faces a big name in his prime, Cotto, and not a big name going downhill, look what happens, he lost. Same thing with Cotto, he fights all these guys (who exposed him over and over and almost had the referee stop the fight) and finally gets in the ring with a big name in his prime and had his corner run up the ring to save his life.

There are only 3 fighters today who are willing to face Margarito

You mentioned Cotto in your list but has Cotto mentioned that he wants a rematch with Margarito? I think I am missing something here. Many people, including you, talk about Mayweather and ODLH having nightmares about Margarito but I think that applies to Cotto who rather not talk about a rematch. In a way, I admire him for that. It would be a bit foolish of him to get into the ring once again with a guy who did what he did to him. You know how people say that Mayweather completely punished, humiliated, used as a doormat, destroyed, annihilitaed, made look silly, exposed, spanked, dominated, stepped on, etc. ODLH in their fight, right? Which, is way far from all that. I'll say Margarito did every one of those things to Cotto.

Cotto is not a ducker

ODLH and Mayweather are far from being duckers. Look at their resumes.

and Cotto has beat plenty of fighters that were undefeated before they stepped in the ring with him

Can their levels be compared to the opposition ODLH and Mayweather faced? Quinana? Already talked about him. The soft-hitting Paul Malignaggi, same thing, who did he fight before Cotto? Both of them went through the same thing as Cotto, loosing to the first REAL challenge, a big name in his prime. I mean, you were one of the many Cotto fans who made it sound as if Alfonso Gomez was one of his greatest accomplishments ever. I remember debating that one saying that he was just a stepping stone like Forbes with ODLH and Diaz with Pac which got me some negative reps and nasty pm messages from outraged sensitive Cotto fans. *sigh* Oh well. Actually, Cotto has had lots of stepping stones throughout his career if you go to his resume.

How long has Tony been a welter? Tony is a one division fighter and that is it. This does not make him all that

Hhhhhhmm it makes him the guy that completely punished, humiliated, used as a doormat, destroyed, annihilitaed, made look silly, exposed, spanked, dominated, and stepped on Cotto. And he's not all that? If they went to the scorecards in a close competitive fight that went back and forth then yeah, I might agree with you and look forward to a rematch.
Margarito vs Cotto may look like what we will see with ODLH vs Pac. Maybe we'll have PAC throwing all kinds of punches that were powerful in lower weights only to have ODLH walking through them. But the difference here is that Cotto and Margarito didn't go up or down 2 or 3 weights, still, Cotto's punches looked weak against Tony as Pac may look against ODLH (I still think there is a possibility of Pac pulling a victory). Hhhhmmm...I'll start using this example in all Pac vs ODLH threads.

and I do believe that in the rematch, Miguel will win.

Sure! Keep the faith. Many, even you, thought he would win against Tony. We'll see what happens next time around.

But for now Chino, you may go on talking pendejadas, but you shall see

If you call the truth "pendejadas" then yeah, I guess I have said "pendejadas."

I am not trying to take anything away from Tony

"Tony is not all that"
"Cotto lost because of his nose, if not, he would have won easily"
Among many other comments...you say you are not taking anything away?

Which makes you a pendenjo at best.

So chino, please shut the phuk up with that same bullshiet you have been saying over and over

Shouldn't that be you? With all those topics about why he lost and should have won, pictures of Cotto drinking lemonade or walking down the sreet, etc. I'll say that same "bullshit" whenever this kind of topic comes up . I am even tempted to start a thread about how Cotto is overrated but not as many threads as people start about how ODLH and Mayweather are terrible or as many threads about how Cotto is great and excuses why he lost.

enjoy the short live victory son

I am plus the drama you add to it makes it even more enjoyable .
