To hear the two camps talk, the only impediment to the rematch is an agreement upon weight. Larger obstacles, such as money and promotional rights, have already been cleared. De La Hoya, who still fights at 147 pounds (and who would inherit Trinidad's WBC crown if his nemesis moved up a class), was willing to go up to 151. But then Felix Sr. said he would not permit his son, who struggles to make that weight, to fight lighter than 152. So De La Hoya. wary of a beefed-up Trinidad (even by 16 ounces?), told promoter Bob Arum to go ahead and sign him up with Mosley.
