    Not Mosley, he already had the chance for a third fight with Oscar, and he turned it down because he said boxing is about determining who is the greatest fighter, not about how much money a fighter makes.

    I bet he doesn't fight Oscar again.

            I think this is the fight I'd like to see DLH fight next. If it's not Cotto or Mosley he should just retire.

              But to be very honest, DLH doesnt deserve the shot and DLH is getting in the way of everything. He should retire or fight Trinidad and thats it.
              Agreed, but I think Oscar ought to just go ahead and retire without fighting anymore. Getting in the ring is not his primary occupation anymore, and almost everytime he does get into the ring now it diminishes his legacy. Oscar was great, now he's over-the-hill. An Oscar-Mosely bout is almost meaningless because, frankly, IMO Mosely is over-the-hill too. Cotto's going to remind us of that during their fight.

                  Mosley doesn't have many fights left in him, he shouldn't waste it on Delahoya. Mosley should say i'm half puerto rican so DLH will leave him alone. I really want to see mosley vs floyd when he has still something left in the tank. As someone else mentioned, he should fight get out of the way and fight Tito, Margarito, or any other meaningless opponents.

                    I dunno why Oscar is saying two great fights. Anyone thought the second fight was entertaining?

                      I believe Oscar should fight at 154, IMO he has a better chance w/those guys for the simple fact he's going to be killing his self to get down to 147. Oscar's just blowing smoke up our asses, doesnt he walk around at 170 or something like that? He looked real strong at 154 against Mayorga..yes I know thats not saying much but mayorga has a pretty good chin and Oscar floored him in the first round w/ one left hook. Maybe he could fight Vernon Forrest or Winky.
