    I don't know. Why do we want to see ANY fight? Tito and Oscar wouldn't be the first aging superstars to get in the ring for a rematch... and they certainly won't be the last. I know many people may not watch, but I certainly will.



    and If in fact I was to give one.......where would I & too whom would I give a shit ?? Just asking.....

    (See inserted comments above).
    Well my friend,for your sake & as a Tito fan, I hope you get what you want.I can say Tito was a great welterweight but am hard pressed to catorgize him as such above that weight division.Right now and with respect,I would like to see him win ANY fight but at this point Its more about the 'Name factor' as opposed to the relevancy to the sport here in this match Imo.And don't even get me started on DeLaHypa......he is riding on name nowadays and has himself to blame for pulling that Z.Raheem impersonation so many years ago vs. Trinidad.....I honestly and with a straight face can not call him an all time great fighter.....the Chavez,Quartey & Whitaker (?) wins not with standing.Just me.Hey,If it does come off,lets at least hope they keep it off PPV

    Thanks for the sentiment, Spicoli. I'd rep you, but gotta spread some around first.

    I respect that. Although I'd say he did well for himself at 154 (the weight he beat Vargas). And although I think 160 was a bit out of his reach, he did start off with a bang, KO'ing a former champ like William Joppy.

    Never been much of a De La Hoya fan myself, as many who I've shared with on this forum well know. Not a very popular stance on this forum, but hey... that's what makes our exchanges so interesting around here.
