Oscar De La Hoya continues to solidify his position as one of the smartest men in boxing. According to Dan Rafael, Golden Boy may end up promoting the possible clash between WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and Ricky Hatton - if it ever comes off. [details]

Wow.. I hope this is true. -
Many of us on these boards called this. We said that if Mayweather did fight De la Hoya there'd be some sort of contractual obligation letting Goldenboy get a cut off Floyd should he win. I can't decide if Oscar wears the gloves or the suite better. Now it's come to light that it is, indeed, the truth. Floyd may have beat Oscar but he he's putting money in his pocket, should he be lying about retiring, most likely for years to come.Comment

Bad news for boxing. Now, we will see an even worse undercard then we did with Mayweather and DelaHoya now...and turn even more casual boxing fans off. Awesome.Comment

**** you are as ****** as I thought. Whenever there are BIG name fighters (not Margarito/Williams...B level guys who no one knows about) of course they are going to showcase a bunch of young talent. DLH is greedy and will keep all the money to himself. Power of the dollar...Comment

So Oscar is promoting a fight that was supposed to be announced yesterday afternoon but didn't? I didn't know you could promote nonexistant fights. The sport is evolving.Comment
