It seems to me the guy has no one to fight in May. Cotto is fighting Margarito, Mayweather doesn't want to fight him again. Hatton when back to 140. It looks to me like he will eventually fight at 154 and maybe take on Winky.

I say he should fight Mosley for the 3rd time and win damn it!

Can Tito go down in weight after RJJ and finally give him the rematch he deserves?

the rematch probably wouldn't be worth anything now.
besides he had the chance to fight Tito again back in the day but didn't, too proud I guess, I don't know.

I feel De La Hoya won the first still.

Is he supposed to be making this decision this week?

Seems to me he should just target someone beatable like Judah and fight Cotto at the end of the year for huge money.

Cintron and Hatton are the only possible fights. Everyone else is booked. It looks like he'll take the Hatton fight because it's a fight that earns a lot of money and it's winnable. Cintron isnt a big enough name.

It seems like Hatton's people want no part of that though so then who is it? He's not going to fight Winky.

Mosley is the only option but then again he is coming off a lost so its gonna be tough for oscar.

De La Hoya / Hatton may not do all that great.
They are both likable guys and you need a bad guy / good guy rivalry to sell a mega fight.

two bad guys work as well.. but when both guys are nice, I don't know. But then again, how did his PPV with Mosley go? I'm sure not as good as Vargas or Mayorga
