Oscar has faced harder punchers in boxing like Trinadad, Vargas, S. Mosley, Quartay, B Hop, and Ricardo M. Julio Cesar Chavez was the most dangerous puncher Oscar had to face. And he beat that ass. Oscar also has more power than Cotto so he will be able to wear Margarito down unlike Cotto. He also has a better chin than Cotto.
Oscar is not afraid to face Margarito, Pacquiao just brings more money and everyone knows that Oscar is trying to get the biggest payout he can get before he retires.
:boxing:
Please make me a list of all the junior middles and middleweights Oscar has KO'd. It won't take you very long, and each one of them had already been destroyed by Trinidad. Even in his prime, DLH didn't punch harder than Cotto as a welterweight. His power was highly overrated once he got to 147.
He already answered.
He said Tito and Ike.
:slap:
Oscar hits harder than cotto and you must have forgot that he has beat, hurt and knocked out a lot of jr middle weight and middle weight.

i dont think hes afraid but he knows there is a chance he could lose. thats all. he doesnt want to take that chance for his last fite. mix that in with the fact that hes a hypocritical pussy and you can see why he doesnt want to fite tony. nuff said.
Oscar would do fine the first couple of rounds but once those body shots of Margarito start taking effect and Oscar starts feeling his stomach burn its over for him. Margarito will tear him apart with continous punches to the body and oscar will not even have time to take a dive!

>> De La Hoya has tremendous clout in the boxing business. If Oscar wanted to fight Antonio Margarito..he would just make the fight. No stories, no excuses, no BS. He doesn't want the fight and he doesn't want to fight him... <<
..which is unfortunate; because even if he lost (which I believe he would), his "swan song" stature would be more elevated then if he took a win over a slim chance opponent.
Only someone with limited boxing knowledge would think that Oscar is scared of Margarito. Oscar has had a better career than Margarito & has also faced better competition. Margarito moved to 154 1 time & loss. Outside of some people showing up at the arena chanting Mexico, Margarito doesn't really bring anything else to the table for a fighter of Oscar's status.
PS. A lot of the people saying Oscar is scared of Margarito were saying Oscar was scared of Vargas.
1. Oscar has had a better career than Marg.
a. As in the past not recently though, I do give him credit for having more ring experience and knowledge (someting Cotto was also credited for).
2. ODLH biggest enemy IMO would be his age and inactivity in the last few years. Maybe a fight every 18 months average.
IMO it could still be a great fight, regardless.
So basically, since you know that any answer you give will be complete crap, you resort to asking me a question.
I have the balls to answer.
None.
Now tell me of these guys that DLH beat that hadn't already been beat down before.
Let them hang Frank.
tito (everybody knows he won that fight), ike q etc.
He fought those tough guys a long time ago..
It doesn't matter to those cats.
They think its still 1998, not 2008.
DLH prime, most likely outpoints Tony.
This isn't that DLH anymore and hasn't been for a long time.
Even then, I think this fight is going to happen.
Tell me what jr middleweight or middleweight Margarito has beaten.
