          I don't think that there is much wrong with what joe said regarding De La Hoya, but i doubt it that boxing will ever die... True, it's probably no where near what it once was but there are definitely fighters out there to keep the public interested, and there are exciting fighters coming through.

            Oscar hasnt been a real fighter since the Mosely rematch, maybe not even since the Vargas fight.

              Joe is wrong about boxing dying, and yeah, De La Hoya's two years younger than him, but Oscar's fought more big names than Joe ever has. Who'd Joe beat that is either in the IBHOF or will be? Roy Jones, Bernard Hopkins by a narrow decision, and probably Chris Eubank, though I'm unsure if he is in the HOF or not. Going in against good opponents tends to take a lot out of a person, and Oscar's faced off against a lot of good people, including Pernell Whitaker, Bernard Hopkins, and Felix Trinidad.
              He said he cant fault him for his record, just that he keeps on fighting when he is clearly past it, as a DLH fan i agree with joe!

                He fought a good fight during the Mayweather fight though. It might have been because he was emotionally involved for that fight. He hated Mayweather.
