Oscar De La Hoya: "Pacquiao Still Possible, Margarito is Not!"

[Eaner0919]

He is being somewhat hypocritical. He says he doesn't want to disrespect Williams by tying up Margarito, yet has no problem taking Pacquiao away from Marquez and delaying that fight?

not only that but where was Oscar when both Ike and Pea had legitimate claims to rematches?

wouldn't that be perceived as "unfinished business"?

hypocritical to say the lease. I am on board that Tony's only plausible fights should be either DLH (wont happen) or PWill (the one that makes the most sense) but for Oscar to say someone has unfinished business while he left fighters waiting for their unfinished business to be resolved is comical

Despite all of the reports that pronounced the fight dead, Oscar De La Hoya maintains that a bout with WBC lightweight champion Manny Pacquiao is still possible for December 6 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Pacquiao officially walked away from the fight on Wednesday after De La Hoya refused to come down from his 70-30 revenue split and told rejected Pacquiao counter-offer of 60-40. Pacquiao instructed his promoter Bob Arum of Top Rank to begin negotiations for a Humberto Soto bout in November, while Golden Boy Promotions is trying to secure Sergio Mora for De La Hoya in December.

I am so happy Dlh has told Margs that he has unfinished business with Williams and that he won't deal with him lol. Now Dlh will be called a coward lol.

lol riveting features? He's good looking latino guy that girls go crazy for. He is more than a good fighter and always comes to fight. And until now, old guy that he is, has always fought the best.

Yes, he may have fought the "best", but generally not when they actually WERE the best. if they were, he'd make sure to have a fight winning advantage. Sometimes it went wrong, which is only to be expected.

As far as having women go for him etc. I'm a man, and all I see in his face is a tiny nose and a large, square jaw attached to heavy, fleshy cheeks, actually good for fighting, and perhaps a barrier against being KO'd by a clout on the chin. But what has "woman appeal" got to do with having the huge boxing support he has, no matter who he fights.

Of course he is a con artist of Grade A proportions, but that alone shouldn't work for him the way it does.

It's become obvious that Delahoya is not going to fight Margarito. I'm sure Delahoya feels he doesn't need Tony and is not obligated to fight him. With that said, a rematch with Paul Williams makes the most sense. If not, margarito is chasing a dream that most likely will never happen. At the same time, he has unfinished business at 147.
