De La Hoya @ LA Press Conference for Mosley vs. Cotto:
"If Mosley wins do I think about fighting Shane again and doing a third fight because our two first fights were great fights? If Cotto wins do I think of fighting Cotto? There's alot I have to think about. I don't want to make that descision now. I have to wait and see how everything plays out. You have Hatton/Mayweather so we'll have to wait and see. Right now I'm just taking it easy, see how the cards unfold and take it from there."
............................
o really sherlock
yes.
when oscar says he will not fight someone (pbf, vargass), he ends up fighting them
now he says he may fight shane again, but that's b.s.
Man Fuck Oscar....for real.....who does he think he is picking and choosing fights. He can't beat the top contenders so why are we even talking about what he thinks.
He makes the most money because his bias fans think he's cute!
I don't care if his fans get mad......he has to beat a valid opponent in order to get my respect.
I don't want to hear shit about " oh he should have won". How many excuses are we going to have to make. How many coaches have to get fired,
His bitch ass folowers could suck my dick.
Rambo!!!
the problem is, for the mainstream fan, dlh is still a star.. eventhough i agree, its time he retires, we cant neglect, what he offers boxing. eventhough i dislike the loser, he still isnt so bad a fighter, that its bad for boxing.
he brings hell of a lot more to the table than most other guys in the sport. he would be competitive at 147-154 with everyone mentioned, cotto, mosley, hatton and so on.
what we have are posters, who name a couple of fighters, who should fight.
the problem is, that its only possible to name FEW ..
its not not only the money you earn from dlh, its also the fame to your name afterwards. all the pr, your fight recieves, such a fight and a win, would make your name known worldwide. imagine cotto beating him, that would make cotto boxing biggest attraction. only beating mayweather would do the same, and that says alot, about the attention, the bonafide loser recieves ;-)
you could easely make a case for giving dlh one last go, but likewise do the opposite.
personally i would like to see him get beaten a couple times again. just for fun.
Why do I even want to see a fight between two guys who spent the whole Spring, 2007 jerking each other off on 24/7?
They just need to move to Vermont and get married. They talk about how they are such good friends and Shane goes to PR to spar for free. They both have feminine mannerisms. These dudes are getting suspect. For real.
Fundamentally, anyone would have to agree with this.
There's no way I want to see two guys who have been in business together and intimate friendship for years and years getting into another "bout."
The situation with Hopkins already makes me uncomfortable..
I don't need to see another someone taking a knee, or laying down, pounding their fists in mock frustration again from a phantom body shot. :no:
I would assume everything is on the up and up - but Oscar would be pushing it with this one.
Too much funny stuff has been floating around the situation to make me comfortable with De La Hoya vs. Mosley III.
I wouldn't be surprised one tiny bit to one day find out De La Hoya has pre-fight agreements with guys to do certain things.
Oscar has his fingerprints and dictatorial powers ALL over anything he gets involved with.. It's starting to give me the creeps.
Boxing needs to take that next step into the future and to stop suckling on the Tyson/Delahoya teat.
Our sport does a shitty job of developing new stars.
PBF and Hatton are now fighting for big bucks. SSM and Cotto and fighting for smaller, but still good, purses.
The winners of those two fights need to match up in late spring. Period. Not vs. Oscar. That would be a step into the past.
You hit it right on the head, I could'nt say it better myself. I wish boxer's felt like that, do something for the boxing fans not for your pockets everytime. :boxing:
Exactly. Oscar opens his mouth and some of these cats take his word like it's Gospel.
Why aren't you asking yourselves why a fighter who has lost every big fight and has gone 1-4 in his last five fights (yes, he lost to Sturm) gets to pick and choose his fights. Even for titles and top contenders? WTF has ODLH done lately to be deserving title shots?
Just for money? Well, if that is the case, then GBP is guilty of doing the exact same BS that they criticized DKP and TR for doing when they announced their business plans.
They claimed that they were gonna be good for the sport. So far, they have just been good for their own pockets.
There are a ton of good fights that can be made among the young lions. We don't need Oscar muddying up the waters with his ego.
You're judging it in the wrong way. He doesn't deserve a title shot. The champions deserve the chance to make money off him though. Take the good with the bad.
Mosley clearly won the first fight.
Oscar clearly won the second fight.
Mosley won the first fight by a bigger margin though. The DLH/Mosley II is one of the bigger name true robberies we've seen in the past decade.
wtf... did u try watchin it with volumes down. or try to watch it closely with the volume on... u'll hear Lampley say big right hand by de la hoya but in reality hes hitting air
Seriously though.
People take rivalries really fucking far.......and there are a lot of psychos. How would a PR Woman living in PR with a half Mexican little Boy and a Mexican husband who beats Puerto Ricans work out?
I don't really think that needs any explaination.
oh cmon man. He beat the old mexican legend chaves, who was the same nationality as himself, to a pulp and it was ok with him(i'm not saying it shouldn't be), . Now all of a suddent he gets married and is forbiden to fight his wifes nationality. Just that alone made me loose a lot of respect for him.
Yes. It DOES need explanation.
Oscar fought Camacho, Trinidad, Molina, etc, etc. But all of a sudden it would be a problem?
Please.
Thing is I don't remember him having a family who lived in PR back then. How long has he been married to his wife? And their home now is in Puerto Rico.

I don't know why people even listen to Oscar. He contradicts himself more than FMJ does.
Wasn't it a month ago when he said he would "never" fight Cotto because his square-assed Rican wife "asked him not to fight another Puerto Rican" and he promised her?
.
Seriously though.
