    I agree. Trinidad vs. De La Hoya II is the real money fight, with lower risk, and a revenge factor. If Oscar beats Trinidad, then a fight with Winky. Trinidad fans would like to see thier hero one more time beat the great Oscar De La Hoya.

    De la Hoya has a huge fan base, and so does Trinidad. Therefore the money to be made would be huge. Mayweather does not have a huge fan base, and he will end up demanding a high purse, and will out price himself. Therefore the fight will not happen.

    Now that Golden Boy Productions has been dealing with Don King Productions, it seems they can come to the table and work out deals better than GBP and Top Rank. King still promotes Trinidad, and Arum promotes Mayweather. Everything points to a De La Hoya vs. Trindad Rematch.
    Dude, have you been alive the past month? Why do you think PBF bought out his contract with Arum?

      DLH is calling the shots, he will choose who he fights not PBF. I think if he does not CHOOSE to fight PBF, then he'll CHOOSE Tito.

        Okay, and what does that have to do with my post?

        PBF knows that Oscar is calling the shots, hence the whole reason for him buying out his contract, because he knows Oscar won't make a deal with Top Rank. God, conversing with people with the reading comprehension of a 9 year old is annoying.

          its interesting how this will work out...

          will oscar fight for money(tito)? or for respesct and a tough challenge(PBF)?

          if he wants floyd, can enough money get floyd SR to be in oscar's corner? or can enough money get oscar to fight without floyd sr.?

          i eagerly await how this will play out

            Cause your post made it sound like just because Floyd bought out his contract that the fight was a done deal, which it is not. I hope it gets made but Floyd buying out his contract doesn't guarantee that. No need to throw insults over the internet homie, no one insulted you.

              If you honestly, sincerely, think that was what my post was implying, then you need to go back to school and learn how to read.

              My post was in response (hence the long ass quote at the top) about how he stated that PBF was still with Top Rank, which is why the fight with oscar wouldn't go down.

              And then I said (I know it's hard to follow, but try) that it was big news when PBF bought out his contract with Arum (the reason for me asking if he was alive in the past month) in hopes that would help set up a fight with Oscar.

                Marketing is not the factor. DLH said it will shock people. DLH-Tito is a big money fight that will not shock anyone.

                The bigges, most shocking fight of all that could be made is DLH going after the champ at 154 lbs, none other than Mr. Roman Karmazin, who is a badass by the way.

                That would be a cracking fight, and frankly, it would make lots of money as it will be DLH's last fight and EVERY DLH fight makes money regardless of who he is fighting.

                DLH ****ing OWNS equal and is rich off his ass. Taking a fight againt Tito just for the money is not going to 'shock' people.
