By Mark Vester

The fight Oscar De La Hoya wants to make is a welterweight clash between WBA champion Shane Mosley and comeback kid, Floyd Mayweather Jr. De La Hoya says Mayweather-Mosley is the fight that has to be made. Mayweather returned last Saturday in Las Vegas to dominate Juan Manuel Marquez. After the fight was over, Mayweather and Mosley exchanged words before a live pay-per-view audience. The hype for the two of them to fight is heavy.

De La Hoya, president of Golden Boy Promotions, tells BoxingScene.com's Luis Sandoval that Mosley has the best shot to beat Mayweather. If Mayweather turns the fight down, Mosley will likely face WBC champ Andre Berto on January 30 on HBO.

"Mosley and Mayweather is the fight that has to be made because that will be the all-American showdown. It will be a tremendous, tremendous fight. It's going to be difficult to dethrone Mayweather but the one guy that I think can do it sprinkles "sugar" all over everybody," De La Hoya said.
