    Is De la Hoya scared???

    In my mind Oscar is truely scared saying he wants to secure his legacy by taking on Steve Forbes and mann Pacman?? Niether of these guys are true Welter weights. Manny is a 135-140 at best and should stay at those weights. Forbes was on contender and it looked more like a sparring match given for Oscars home crowd then an actual fight. he couldn't agree to a rematch with money may and then he says in interviews and I quote "knowing me I will pick the hardest guy out there and fight him. I alway go for a challenge"...Well oscar is you wanted a challenge you would've fought Mosely instead of forbes and then the winner of the Cotto vs margarito fight. i would even be more interested in seeing you fight Tito at 154 then watching you fight the 5'5 Manny

    Manny is 5'6 and 1/2 and I dont think he would want to fight Mosely a 3rd time. Nobody would really wanna see that at this age,

    As for the winner of Cotto Margarito- both guys would KO him.

    He isnt scared just being a smart business man and taking the big money fight.

    DLH Pacquiao will probably be just as big as a DLH Cotto or DLH Margarito fight with less risk

      Forbes was a tune-up for Mayweather,

      De La Hoya`s legacy was secured long ago,

      i dont agree with him fighting Pac but he has fought the best throughout his career,

      Tito couldnt make 170 to fight Roy, there is no hope he could ever again make 154
