I would like to see it. Oscar has a lot to prove against Sturm, and I think with him being motivated, he will beat him.
But Sturm does deserve a rematch.

I think Oscar is getting too late in his career to worry about who deserves a fight. If he only has one fight left in the tank then why waste it on Sturm?
I would just like to see Sturm Fight period. Very skilled boxer deserves to be on T.V
I don't think it would be a waste on Sturm. Well it would be a waste on Sturm if he has to decide between Margarito and Sturm.Originally Posted by tuckwopat
I think Oscar can choose just about anyone between 147-160... he commands that kind of money and attention. A Sturm rematch would be good for us who really care about and follow boxing... but I think he'd rather appeal to the masses.Originally Posted by BigMix27
Is this a real question or wishful thinking? There's no way in hell Sturm is getting a rematch. If ODLH is trying to give anybody a pity match it will be Margarito. He'll probably sign Margarito anyway. I think ODLH fights PBF then Mosley (whether he wins or loses against PBF) and then fights Trinidad for a retirement match.
Why on Earth, would Oscar want to go anywhere near Strum again?
It is far to a difficult fight, for too little a reward, too late in de la Hoya's career.
If I was Oscar, I would not touch Strum with yours![]()
As a career ender, I think fighting Sturm or Margarito would be a waste. Give us a mega fight for a finally.
Sturm is a 160lb fighter isn't he?
Sturm would just beat him again. With no Hopkins fight on the horizon he will get the decision this time.
i think if he shows up to fight Sturm the way he looked on Saturday, he could very well become the new WBA middleweight champion of the world
Oscar has no business with sturm it was proven in their first fight. sturm is a solid middleweight oscar would be a blown up welterweight. although I believe an in shape delahoya can give sturm a run for his money. he was so fat and pudgy in the first fight.
"Very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts. I hate that, I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter, to step inside that ring, you have to have guts" Oscar De La Hoya
Against Sturm all the flaws in his style were exposed and Sturm has gotten better then he was then, I don't think DLH would ever fight Sturm again, too much risk which risks too many big fights. He won't be fighting for a whike because he suffered a rotater cup injury while beating up Mayorga. Same injury Vitali quit about.
I think theres bigger names then Sturm for Oscar to end his career on.
could you elaborate on that. all sturm did that night was jab jab jab, he rarely followed up with a right or a left. oscar was just in with a guy bigger than him, who he under estimated and showed up without any training not making excuses for oscar he got what he deserved. as a veteran professional he should have come prepared. he embarrassed himself and a lot of his fans.Originally Posted by P.G.H Angel Eyes
