DLH contemplates fight with Margarito, Spanish interview

I posted a similar vid a while back in which DLH mentioned he was open to the possibility of facing Margarito and now he seems alot more certain. Here's a basic translation: Rafael Alcalde: Don't kill the messenger but many people would never forgive you if you retired without facing Margarito DLH: Clearly and that's something I'm contemplating. I've always faced the best and I want people to look back and say "wow, he always fought the best". I dont think Margarito will be the exception, I still feel like I can face the best in the world and Margarito is currently considered one of the best in the world. My retirement isn't coming any time soon. Rafael: Your career wont end in 2008? DLH I'm going to think about it after the pac fight but I'm confident I'll continue. I'm going to talk with my family first because I always consult with them. It's difficult for them to see me enter the ring. Rafael: I'm married just like you and we have to ask permission (laughs) DLH: (laughs) Permission.. My wife roots for me 100 percent and she doesnt want to see me hurt but ultimately I make the decisions when it comes to boxing. Then they talk about the possibility of a Chavez Jr fight. DLH says he's too yound and needs more experience but wishes him the best and hopes he accomplishes his goal of becoming champ.

I disagree, I think he's finally come around. He's friends with Alcalde and discussed Margarito a week ago but he was more vague about the possibility of a fight. I'm pretty certain he set up that interview in order to end the trash talking by Mexican fans and let them know that he will face Margarito after all. He even acknowledged that Margarito was one of the best (instead of bringing up Williams) and said that his only hesitation is over his families concern that he'll be injured. He also said in a different interview that he'd like to end his career in estadio Azteca and I cant imagine a better opponent than Margarito. It'll never happen.

He only says he's considering a fight with Margarito when he's being interviewed in spanish (Mexican TV). Cuz if he pulls that "Margarito can wait in line" bullshit so he don't look like a punk pussy. He's afraid of Margarito and he'll never fight him. I disagree, I think he's finally come around.
