    Oscar De La Hoya vs. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in Talks?

    According to rumors going around in the Mexican press, a possible fight between Oscar De La Hoya (39-6, 30KOs) and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (38-0-1, 29KOs) is in the works. The fight with Chavez Jr. is probably the only "major" fight that De La Hoya, at this point in his career, can put together and it would actually sell. Mexican press reports indicate that Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, Mexico - would be the target venue. The stadium holds over 100,000 fans. De La Hoya has always dreamed of fighting there. Of course none of this has been confirmed by either side, but it's the logical fight if De La Hoya plans to continue his career. [details]

        It isn't a safe venue for Oscar... and i fear that there would be a riot if Oscar won.

            Judging Oscar off of the Pacman fight he needs to hang them up. He went for long stretches without throwing at too many times and to lose to JCC Jr. would be a pathetic way to end a HOF career. I really hope this doesn't go through.

              Good fight. They might as well sell JCC jr out now.

                Many would call it poetic justice...

                  Many would, I'm just not one of them. As much as I hate Oscar lately I still wouldn't want him to go out like that. Losing to Manny, the #1 P4P fighter but a fighter who is much smaller is bad enough. But to lose to JCC Jr. who isn't and never will be on the elite fighter level would just be sad.

                    I think they would hate him more for not giving Jr. the same opportunity that Sr. gave to him.
