    Tito - DLH II would be at least twice as rich as DLH - PBF.

    It's not even close, people.

      dlh- mosley - decent $, avenge losses
      dlh- vargas- decent $- nothing to prove pointless

When people here that Oscar is fighting the best guy out there then I think it will sell just as much as the other 2 fights. Also you add to that all the factors of Tito & Vargas looking finished, combined with Floyd Sr. training Oscar and I think this fight would maybe even sell more then them other 2.

        I just now saw what you said about Mosley & Winky and you are insane about that. IF you think those 2 fights will make more then Floyd then you are crazy. No one knows Winky and people only know Shane because of Oscar and they think he sucks now.

        3rd, I disagree with you about tough fights. I actually think that Oscar thinks like alot of fans seem to think, that Oscar can beat Floyd because of his huge size advantage. Oscar even said after the Zab fight that Floyd doesnt look the same at 147 and is not as good. Add to that he came in to the ring for a 147 pound fight weighing just 146 and Oscar probally weighed close to 170 for his fight then you have a huge advantage. Floyd probally cant even get to 154 pounds.

        Then they way he just beat a big strong guy like Mayorga? Also I think you are wrong about how Oscar wants to go out. You think anyone will think anything special of him for going out with a win over Shane, Vargas, or Tito? All 3 of them look shot. Winky is ok but he isnt sexy enough. How many guys can retire after beating the #1 guy in the game? A fight with Floyd will easily secure his legacy as one of the All Time Greats and them other fights wouldnt do that. Those 1st 3 fights will just be money fights but a Floyd fight is money and history.
        secure his legacy to diehard fans but casual fans recognize tito's name and a build up of "starting where they left off" in a tito- dlh fight would secure his legacy outside the boxing world

          After the way DLH looked the other night, I could probably book him against my cousin Irene and it would make 20 mil. Personally I would like to see some one wipe the smile off Mayweathers face and Oscar might just be the one to do it. I don't think Winky would make Oscar look too good, I think he could outbox Oscar. 12 rounds
          of jab, jab, jab.

            The Vargas fight is not pointless. Oscar would make almost as much as with Tito, a lot more than vs. Mayweather, and it's against whom Oscar would have the greater chance of going out with a boom.

              he should fight PBF because of legacy, but if he wants money, DLH vs mosley 3 and tito 2 would bring in more money, i want to see DLH mosley 3 just to finish the trilogy, any non tito nuthugger knows DLH is superior to tito

                Oscar doesn't need the money people. Oscar is still fighting because of his love for the sport and most importantly, his legacy. If Oscar wants to improve his already great legacy, he needs to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr.

                  i respect your opinion and im not saying a trinidad or a vargas rematch wouldn't make money, but why would dlh fight vargas again? he already proved himself against him and vargas just lost to mosley. and pbf is quickly becoming one of the most recognized names in boxing. if that fight happens, that's gonna be the moneymaker.

                    Best thing for DLH would be to retire right now with this win. If he still choose to fight on Sept, I would love to see him against Trinidad.
