  • Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis, Hatton Plead With De La Hoya To Stay Retired

    As previously reported, Oscar De La Hoya is considering a comeback at the age of 42 to face Floyd Mayweather or Gennady Golovkin.

    De La Hoya, who was the 1992 Olympic champion and won world titles at six different weights, lost a split decision to Mayweather in 2007.

    His final bout before retirement was against Manny Pacquiao in 2008 and ended when De La Hoya retired on his stool at the end of the eighth round, a defeat which was his fourth in seven contests.

    De La Hoya was inducted into the Hall of Fame last year and says he feels "great physically" after two spells in rehabilitation clinics. He appears to have had a change of heart after suggesting recently that a comeback was not on his agenda.

    They are right, and unless Oscar wants to kid himself, he ought to take their advice. Besides, doesn't Oscar have enough to do to keep Golden Boy on solid ground financially?

        "I call Oscar a friend. That's fighters. I picked a dangerous opponent for my first fight back and in hindsight maybe I should have picked an easier opponent than Senchenko for my first fight back... but that's what we are - we're fighters."

        Errr, Ricky... Senchenko was a soft opponent.....Dude got stopped by Paulie FFS.

              I would think that the BHop lifestyle works a lot better if you've lived it continuously - year after year like BHop. Then again, maybe Oscar can prove me wrong.

                    Would love to see DLH-Khan or DLH-GGG though.... These 2 fights would be wars. And DLH has a good left hook. At 154 or even 160, he can bring some pop.
