"He's Mexican, and I don't want to fight another Mexican."
"He doesn't have a big enough name."
"I really had my heart set on Mayweather."
"I'm scared to fight him. He might beat the sh*t out of me."

it kinda makes sense though. Pac has been beating every mexican put in front of him and really oscar is the only mexican left. For oscars last fight he takes on the pacman and gets the chance to beat the guy who has been beating the other mexicans.
Can you imagine if pac drops and or beats oscar? that shiit would be huge!!!
If oscar wins though it would make sense, he'll end the success pac has had over mexicans as his last goodbye fight. Oscar gotta stay off the canvas though cause there hasn't been a mexican pac didn't put on their ass.![]()

You're right... that's a great angle. I'd be surprised if Oscar and his marketing machine didn't pick up on that and use it to hype the matchup.
And if by some miracle, Pac DID drop and/or beat De La Hoya... I'd be on a plane to the Phillipines the next day to help plan the homecoming parade.

No offence but how can a man who has fought Trinidad, Mayweather, Hopkins, Mosley, Pernell, Chavez, Quartey, Mayorga, Vargas, Gatti, Camacho and Gonzalez be afraid of fighting Margarito? We have seen 6'1 Paul Williams beat Tony recently and Oscar is quite tall at 5'11 for that weight but IMO has better boxing skills than Williams. Also I've seen people questioning Oscars chin (or so it seems). How? He has walked through peoples shots who hit a lot harder than anyone who Tony has faced and also probably hits as hard as Cintron who is the hardest puncher that Tony has faced. The difference is he is a lot better boxer than Cintron and would cause Tony a lot of trouble and I think beat him.
I don't understand why people hate Oscar. He has fought the best fighters of his era and is looking now like he is going to take on the man who has been beating all his fellow Mexicans albeit in divisions quite a bit lower than the one he has been fighting. It looks like a mismatch but if you could take Oscar from 1995 when he himself was fighting at lightweight and put Pacman from now into that era we wouldn't be arguing this. The thing is he has grown into a junior middle and is going to drain himself (probably) to fight at Welter. The Mexican public turned on him a bit when he beat Chavez twice who is the biggest name in Mexican Boxing so he probably wants to win their hearts back and sees this as the best way of doing so. Certainly the last thing that would win the hearts of the Mexicans back would be to beat up their new hero and the man who has just beaten a fierce Puerto Rican Rival.
So the answer has to be the one he has already said, That he doesn't want to fight another Mexican.
