Why the hatred against ODLH?

[killersheep]

I don't hate him, but I do think it's time for him to move on. With him out of the picture there's no excuse not to have PBF vs. Cotto (or Margarito if he beats Cotto). He doesn't deserve a rematch, however since he pretty much owns boxing now, he can do as he pleases.

I will say I would much rather have him as an ambassador for the sport than Don King or Bob Arum.

And for everything PBF vs. ODLH I was it get a lot of casual fans into the fight, they had a reason to watch. I am all for trying to get more people involved that is great, but now it is getting in the way of future matchmaking, his money trumps any kind of ranking system in the sport which is a problem for me.

I agree, too many people are too hard on him. I dont blame him for continuing his career and wanting to still be in big fights. Hes a fighter and in his mind he is still among the best. That how a champion thinks. I also think he needed a fight like he just had. He not a titleholder so its not like it was a defence or anything. There is a double standard here because a few weeks ago Cotto, a champion, fought a fighter not even on Forbes level and didnt get the kind of sh@t Oscar has. Not that he should be criticized either. Every fight cant be a superfight.
