Comments Thread For: Oscar De La Hoya Still Mulling Potential Ring Return at 42

War Bradley!

Hes never coming back. Hes the heaviest I've ever seen him

I do think, however, if he was serious, hes planning on returning on the Canelo-Cotto card to help the PPV buys as Canelo and ODH on the same card would surely get 2M buys.


Chavez Jr vs ODH would surely get my attention

Oscar can fight Floyd if he can still make 154... He'll obviously lose, but he won't get hurt and will go the full 12 rounds...it'll be a moral victory...

Canelo vs Cotto is probably happening on 11/28/15. Possibly the 21st of November. But I am thinking the 28th is more likely because the MGM is available that day. There is no way Canelo vs Cotto happens in Texas or NY.

Only a FIomo like you would think the MGM is that important of an arena...

Cowboys stadium is definitely a possibility as you can fill that entire stadium and make a huge gate without state income tax whereas MGM can't hold anything close to it...

Cotto is a diva though who might demand the fight be in NY...Yankee stadium and MSG are also possibilities...shiiiit even Metlife Stadium could be possible actually because it can hold 80K...I'm just not sure about how the football season and schedule would affect all of this...

But either way... Yankee stadium and MSG are clearly live options as Cotto actually preferred the fight be in NY the last time around...

I generally don't have a problem with boxers coming out of retirement but Oscar needs to stay retired. Especially if he's serious about fighting Golovkin.

Oscar should only come back for a rematch with Tito.

[The Big Dunn]

ODH must have graduated from coke to crack because he keeps flip flopping. STFU and go sit on a **** while wearing stockings.

He has Canelo...and Matthysse. Adding himself to his own stable would create a big buzz for GBP. Even though it would be in a circus type of way, it would still be massive attention. He'd fight GGG just to make GGG a PPV fighter to put him in vs Canelo, in a big PPV fight. If DLH does this, that would probably be the most hardcore promotional tactic a promoter has ever done, that I know of Why else would he want to come back, he's bored?

Lol man you're crazy but yeah if what you said happened that would be too too 1 funny and 2 hardcore. That'd put the phrase the promoter should work for you in a different context haha!

[-PANDA-]

this seems like more of a promotional tactic for oscar, in the sense that he's trying to convey to top fighters that his name alone still garners massive interest

if he should return he should fight margarito...I don't think margarito deserves the payday but that is a winnable fight for oscar in which he might actually look good

Odlh

After Oscar faces GGG he'll go back to drinking again...
