How about Delahoya vs Margarito?

[Vladimir303]

It makes sense. Oscar has said that he wants to have a tune-up fight at 147lb first before he has another big fight. That doesn't mean he should digg up some bum out of nowhere.

A C-level figher in Margarito would do. Top Rank and GBP are on good terms so this fight could get made easy. Margarito has been clamoring to get a shot at a super star fighter. A 80-20 split in Oscar's favor and Margarito still gets the biggest payday of his career.

Everybody's happy.

Oh yea Ocar also has said he wants to fight on Regular HBO to give back to the fans.....blah blah..so this shouldn't be on PPV.....I sure as hell wouldn't pay for it.

Oscar is planing on returning in May. This wouldn't be The World Awaits BUT still a good TV fight.

good matchup
they could even do the fight at 154

Yea they could but pointless. Oscar has made it clear that he wants to comeback to 147 and Margarito has been a title holder for years at that weight. Good comeback win into the welterweight division for Oscar.

I think this would be a good first fight for DLH at 147. I think he should fight clottey after margarito.

Marg aint a tune up man, id back em against Oscar at this point, to much volume

Oscar Would Never Commit To A Fight With Margarito.

Antonio is not a C-level fighter, and he would give DLH some serious problems with his workrate and chin.

I'd still pick DLH to win though. But DLH is only getting older and he needs to decide where he wants his career to be.

Margarito would destroy DLH. DLH knoiws this too. They've sparred. Oscar will not fight Margarito. He would get retired. Oscar fades down the stretch and is allergic to body punching. He would get stopped in round 8. Oscar will fight a tuneup, probably against a Collazo, David Estrada or somebody he should beat. He wont go anywhere near Margarito, Clottey, Williams because they would all beat him badly.
