Would you be pissed of if De La Hoya gets a shot at Tony ?

[Lance Uppercut]

Personally I dont want to see Oscar in any more high profile fights but if he were to get a shot at Tony would you be pissed of or would you look forward to it ? It would be a great send off if he won but I think Tony would have too much for him.

What world are you from? Oscar getting "a shot at Tony". Tony would give up first born for a shot at the Golden Boy. Because everyone who follows boxing knows that a fight with Oscar will be the biggest pay check in your entire career.

Like it or not Oscar calls the shots. Anyone would want to fight him as it will represent their biggest purse in their career. Marg has earned the right to fight Oscar and it probably will be at light middle where at least it will be more competitive. Marg still wins as Oscar will gas out, he is not seasoned and active anymore.

No offence but I think that he means Oscar getting a shot at Margs WW title.

Personally I would love to see this fight. I think Oscar would beat Tony by UD. I just don't see the fight materialising

rjj tszyu you normally talk sense but can you honestly see Oscar kill himself to make 147lb and then take on and beat a seasoned Marg who has just stopped Cintron and Cotto. No chance, 7 years ago yes but not now!

I hope De La Hoya fights Margarito cos at least then he is picking on someone his own size and will get chinned.

Talks of a fight with Pacman are just a cynical joke.

It would be a great fight. Margarito has definitely earned it.

In the end, it's all up to the Golden Boy... And, unfortunately, it looks like an easy decision:
1) fight the top active Welterweight. If he wins, he gets massive respect and glory. If he loses, then he ends on a bad note and will grudgingly pass the torch to Margarito [the torch he earned by beating JCC ].
or
2) fight the #1 p4p fighter in the sport. If he wins and he 99.9% probably will win, then he gets an easy victory, way more money than Marg, lots of media attention, lots of attention from the casual boxing fan. The only question is how will the casual fan react once they see the size difference in the ring on fight night?

I know what your saying master but Oscar weighed in at 150 for his last fight. Ok he didn't look great but he made it and never looked in trouble. He IMO can only look better as he shrinks his body back down slowly. And finally yes I can see him beating Marg as long as he boxes him for the full 12 rounds and doesn't try to go out on some macho hispanic note.

1 thing I'll say is........ Never underestimate Oscar De La Hoya..
