    De La Hoya on Why He Picked Pacquiao, and Not Margarito

    Oscar De La Hoya was recently asked point-blank on why he decided to go with WBC lightweight champion Manny Pacquiao, instead of WBA welterweight champ Antonio Margarito - as the opponent on December 6 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. [details]

    dream scenario for the closet oscar fan in me:

    1) Oscar beats Pacquiao (kinda inevitable anyway) but doesn't ko him or ruin the little tykes body. it would be a travesty if oscar ruined the most exciting fighter of our generation....

    2) oscar rematches pbf who is enticed by the payday, and under the tutleage of big floyd sr, pulls out a masterful ud, won mainly on the jab.

    3) oscar fights a 12 round war with margarito in azteca stadium in mexico and stops margs in the 12th to prove himself the mexican warrior he has always craved to be recognized as....

              Oscar fighting for Mexico??
              That's a laugh!
              Mexicans hate his punk a$$ for shamelessly ducking Margarito.

              We, the real fight fans, can flush Oscar's PPV down the toilet.

                Oscar the fraud.

                This fraud is still trotting out that tired old crap " I want to make opportunities for young Mexican fighters" etc. The main opportunities are to make himself the "Mexican conduit to the U.S> boxing market". He'd LOVE that

                And he also still uses that "I've fought everybody" drek. Maybe he did.....or almost, but generally when they were either long past their peak or weight drained or some other advantage. As did Mayweather. All these egotistical crappers have the smarts to insist on weaseling out the "goodies".
