Speaking of Oscars wish list in the URL above I see a big bias in boxrec's list below.

The first four fighters are all promoted by Oscar but Mosley definately does not deserve to be on the top of this list with the level of opposion he has been lak lusterly beating and what the heck is Ouma and Martinez doing above Karmazin when Karmazin literally beat he shat out of Ouma in their last fight?

It looks like more Don King skull duggery to me and Just when I had high hopes that Oscar was going to clean up boxing. I hope that I am wrong about the above but it sure looks like boxrec has been paid off.

Oh yeah and Margarito never hit a wall with Santos (weighed 175 pounds at fight) because he hurt Santos real bad and looked to be winning when the fights were stopped due to cutts.

Not only is this fight the biggest megafight in the new millenium so far in terms of $$$...HBO execs are projecting a $35 million purse ($22.5 for Oscar, $12.5 for Floyd)...

But in terms of legacy for either man, De La Hoya has the best chance of anyone at 147-154 of beating Mayweather and vice versa, Floyd has better chance against Oscar than Hatton, Margarito or any of the other lesser names!!

I know it was the limited Mayorga that Oscar beat down, but it was the WAY he broke him down that showed me, when he is highly motivated, De La Hoya is not that far from what he was at the top of his game (and probably hitting harder than EVER) so a matchup with Mayweather is a very winnable fight for Oscar right now...

Now if we can just get Floyd Sr to ease up...

mosely has a much better chance of beating floyd than Oscar does...

In buying out his contract from Arum, Mayweather Jr. nullified his Aug. 12 unification bout against WBO welterweight champion Antonio Margarito, in which he was to be paid $8 million.

as you're surely aware, PBF bought out the contract so as to clear the way for a potential fight with de la Hoya, who has issues with and is unwilling to deal with Arum. anyone in boxing would take a $15M payday over an $8M payday. it proves nothing other than that Floyd is no fool.

This is a big fight, but I'm starting to think that Floyd won't take the fight for less than 15 Million. If the pot is 35 Mil, there's no way Floyd is letting ODLH get 22 mil (65 percent) of that pot. I think money will be a problem in making the fight. Floyd's gonna say he's undefeated and P4P #1 and a PPV draw himself. He's gonna demand top dollar.

Avoiding Margarito in order to fight ODLH for over two years? HA HA HA

I'll tell you why Floyd must fight Oscar. Because it's about time he fought someone that will knock him flat out. His mouth must be stopped. This charade must end.

You're not making any sense. Floyd hasn't been at 147 (where Margarito's spent his career) for even a year.

Ok I was hyperbolising a bit but some of the articles I have been reading of PBF's fear of Margarito are a year old. It does not matter if Floyed was not at 147 for ODLH is not at 147 either but he will come down to fight PBF just as Margarito would have loved to two years ago.
