Trinidad vs De La Hoya rematch - why it never happened?

[megadeth]

Oscar didn't do rematches if he felt it was too risky. Only people that got rematches were old ass Chavez and Mosley (after many thought Shane was done).

I remember after he got the gift decision over Ike Quartey, Larry Merchant asks him, "this was such a great fight and so many people got pleasure out of it, do you want to give the public a rematch of this fight"?

Oscar CLEARLY ducking the rematch says "I don't know, you think it was a great fight Larry, I don't really think so. There are bigger and better fights out there for me, I know that!" After hearing him say that, all I could think was "what a fraud!"

LMFAO, Oscar was far from a fraud. The Golden Boy fought a prime Trinidad, Vargas, Mayweather, Pacman and Hopkins plus many more. Dude, dared to be great plenty of times anyone who calls him a fraud don't know 2 cents about boxing
