How big of a pussy does this make Oscar look like?

[txn101]

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.

This Mexican would cheer for Oscar and Margarito, you idiot. Everybody wants Oscar, and Oscar has pretty much fought all the good fighters in his era. He is already older and does not really need to fight Margarito to secure his legacy. On the other hand PBR Mayweather quit and he is younger than Oscar. PBF Mayweather won a controversial SD against Oscar. The stupid judge gave it to PBF. PBF does not have the resume Oscar does, not even close. There is no way PBF can be considered a legend.

PBF Mayweather is the real pussy for quitting.

Another keyboard warrior coming out of the closet. Tell that to Mayweather's face and ill bet you'll be the one acting like sissy pussy. Give credit where credit is due.

PBF never took a chance with his career, he never unified any weight class he was in and therefore ducked at least 1 fight per division he was in....and to leave saying "I've cemented my legacy" when Margarito, Cotto, and lots of other big fights are out there at 147 is BULLCRAP.

That's like Mike Tyson saying "I did everything I wanted to, I am hanging it up" when Lewis, Holyfield, and Bowe were coming to the top of the division.


Floyd is a GREAT fighter very talented but he is a chicken shit

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.

in any fighters defense you're not the one putting your ass on the line, your name, your health or any of that at stake, so the fighter's themselves do have a right to go for a bigger $$$ fight instead of taking a high risk, low reward fight, in no way would i rather see Pacquiao/De La Hoya over, Margarito/DLH, Cotto/DLH, Mayweather/DLH II, Hatton/DLH, or even Mosely/DLH III, but hey it's his choice, not yours, if you choose to pay, then you can go bitch about it

So to hear you explain it, it's more a business than a sport. That's too bad, 'cause in the old days it was more a matter of rankings and who was next in line, no matter what the $$$ looked like. Regardless of what anybody says, DLH going after Manny Pacquiao instead of the bigger Margarito turns more boxing fans off than not.

Your right, boxing does not need DLH v Pacquaio, although I bet most of us will still watch it

Pussy?

Is this a joke?

How can you call him a pussy with the record this guy has. Look at everyone he has faced.

He wants a massive pay day in his last fight. I don't see the big deal really.

His legacy is already well and truly intact.

So Pacquiao is the way to go Was Jorge Arce busy or something OR maybe Oscar could fight Layla Ali!


De la Hoya-Pacquiao is a FARCE! Manny would have to jump up in weight and then fight someone who's going to be 160 pounds come fight night! Manny wouldn't weigh 160 in a suit of armor!!!


Oscar should be a big boy and fight Margarito it's what the fans want!

[Wayne]

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!

I'd give you rep, but I need to spread some around first. Rather than cherry pick one division below you go 3 down to find an opponent. That's why I say Oscar, in many respects, is bad for the sport. Pac wouldn't consider fighting a junior middleweight under normal circumstances and Oscar doesn't deserve to fight the #1 P4P guy. Hell, Oscar doesn't deserve to fight Miguel Cotto or Antonio Margarito, either. A win over a blown up junior welter doesn't erase the last few years of inactivity and wins over substandard opponents.

Joshua Clottey has just done the same thing and pretty much got away with it.

Manny was around 148 on his last fight night. I think he could get to around 154 for a fight with Oscar. I wouldn't rule out his chances just yet anyway.

I take on board what you are saying about wanting to see him fight Tony, but for everything Oscar has done in his career, i think people should go a little easy on him. He's given so much to the sport. I can't think of too many fighters in their peak now who are going to end up with a resume anywhere near as good os his.

If he can earn triple what he would from a tougher fight, then i say he deserves to go for it.

and that still goes on today, but why do rankings really matter when it's the man's last fucking fight?!? i mean shit let him go out anyway he wants hell he shouldn't be at this point anyways, should have retired after the Mayorga fight and that's it

He is as big as Jenna Jameson's

So Clottey got away with fighting a guy who is already established within his own weight class? Say what you will about how much weight he gained after the weigh in, Joshua Clottey has gone by all the rules he is supposed to go by. The same as Carlos Baldomir who had to sweat down from 170+ pounds. If Oscar could get down to 140 and fight I'd respect him calling out Manny Pacquiao, but he can't even make 147 and he's challenging someone who's fought at a max of 135. Clottey can make 147 and Zab is a welter, albeit on the light side. So long as you can make the weight class of the person you're in against I say more power to you. I don't see anybody calling for Margarito or Andre Berto to bump up to Junior middleweight or Paul Williams to bump up to middleweight, why the exception for Joshua Clottey?
