What will De La Hoya do now?

[HattonTheHammer]

I think ODH isn't concerned with money only legacy and only against a fighter he thinks he can beat. I'm a ODH fan but even I can agree that either Cotto or Margarito are a tough fight. Could he win sure would I put money on it..No He will fight someone who is perceived as a big fight but in reality will pose a minimum threat. Somone like Mayorga. Floyd was worth the risk. Hatton since being blasted by PBF doesn't do much for ODH's legacy. I'm not sure who he is going to fight but much like most of Oscar's recent fights it will be to maximize his legend and tilted in his favor.

If ODLH wants one more defining moment in the sport.
If ODLH wants to be remembered not just as a promoter but as a great fighter

Surely beating britains sporting icon, in england, infront of 80,000+ would top anything he could ever hope to do against cotto or marg

I'm not saying it wouldn't be a big fight or a mega media event. Depending on what Ricky does from here on out will greatly depend on how it effects ODHs legacy. All I'm saying is that with the onesided loss the PBF at this moment I don't think it fits Oscar's criteria. I didn't think of Mora but that does seem more like the kind of fight that Golden Boy would take at this point in his career. Is it a better fight than Hatton? No, but like I said Oscar is going to try to maximize the impact on his legacy RIGHT NOW. I think its either Mora or Winky.

Well now it would make sense to fight Sergio Mora since he just took Vernon Forrest's title. I can bet a million dollars this fight is gonna happen next.

Forrest is going to enforce the immediate rematch clause though.
