Comments Thread For: De La Hoya on Canelo's Opponent: "It Will Be History"

[Bushbaby]

What you're saying a unification with Trout is historic? huh? Even if it is, I'm not even sure it counts because Floyd has the full super WBA belt.

IMHO, ginger vs any real jr middleweight champion, or title contender is making history. The kid's made a living of ducking the entire division.

Not sure, I'm just taking guesses at what could be historic by Oscar's definition.

Carlos Molina...first all Mexican PPV (undercard included) on Mexican Independence Day...That's what I'm going with

This or a Cotto fight seems to be the best potential for a historical event as defined by Oscar's "History" remark.

Unless Oscar is making a come back.

If Oscar wants to torch Arum, all he would have to do is announce De La Hoya vs Alvarez on the same night and Arum will have a heart attack upon hearing the news. Even though Oscar is way past it - there is no way in hell for Martinez/Chavez to compete with that! Oscar's last checkmate on Arum!

Dlh comes out of retirement and dies of a heart attack in training camp to continue the canelo curse.

[Southpawology]

[HeroBando]

Hyperbole from a boxing promoter? Shocking!

What can they possibly offer that can be considered even remotely "historic"?

Depends on who wins Mundine McKart. If Bronco, historical = ancient. If Mundine, it means Canelo becomes a part of the historical legends lineage, via Danny Green.
