IMO, that article is just a ploy by DLH to drum up public interest in that fight. I totally expect this fight to happen.
Disagree that it's a no lose situation for him. The Hopkins fight was a no lose situation, because everyone knew Bernard would win, but that wouldn't be the case here. Not only would Oscar have a huge number of people picking him to win, I'm not 100% sure he would enter this fight as an underdog. I personally don't think he would beat Floyd, but there's alot of people who see it differently. Not only that, but losing to Floyd would be a situation where yet another superstar beats him. Oscar, when all is said and done, will be ranked among the superstar fighters of his era, and he's already lost to two of them. Another different guy beating him, end of his career or not, would do damage to his legacy.
