Trinidad not winning a single round against Winky makes this event severely tarnished at best if it was scheduled... -
Rematch? What a laugh! Two, over the hill fighters. What purpose would it serve? Zero!! DLH is way past his expiry date and is suicidal if he fights PBF. PBF will destroy him!Originally posted by OctoberRedDe La Hoya-Trinidad would probably make him more money. One of the biggest rematches in the last 20 years.Comment

Taking 30% of a De La Hoya purse is a dream come true for any fighter. I'd be willing to bet Hopkins took at most 40% of the purse, probably more like 35%.Comment

Oscar beat him....then woke up and his coffee was cold.Originally posted by DLTYou guys talking about the draw are dead wrong. It is about the percentage. Floyd's going to make more money then he ever has but so what. Does that mean you should just take anything? Guess what, Oscar is also going to make more money then he ever has.
I think alot of you forget what Floyd brings to the table. There's no doubt that Oscar is the man but he will make way more money fighting Floyd then anyone else. Its like Floyd said about Gatti. Gatti is a draw in his hometown of AC but there is no way in hell that he sells out the Arena in just a matter of hours if he's not fighting Floyd.
All the media has said that this will be Oscar's biggest money fight, it will probally be the biggest non HW fight in history, and it could actually be the biggest money fight in History including HWs.
You think Oscar gets that fightint anyone else? Floyd is the P4P #1 guy in the sport and his status has grown. He stays on PPV now and does some very solid buys. Oscar is also being trained by Floyd's father.
My point is that Floyd brings alot of stuff to the table that makes this fight sell also. Its definatly not a one way thing. Also who else can Oscar fight? Tito's not coming back and no one wants to see that anyway. Then you have Winky which Oscar would make way less money against & he has a far better chance of losing.
Oscar cant and wont just walk away like you guys think so basically Oscar needs and wants this fight also. This fight secures his legacy. This win is probally even bigger then a win over Winky just for the simple fact that Floyd is more sexy. Its a much more sexier win even though you may think Winky is better and a much more harder fight. Oscar will be remembered much more for beating Floyd then Winky.
I think 58/42 or 57/43 is reasonable
If DLH & PBF conclude a deal, it will be Oscar's greatest error of judgment ever. PBF will go out of his way to demolish & humiliate him....as he did to Gatti. PBF has a sadistic streak.
Oscar's ego will be his undoing! The greatest con is a self con!Comment

What you guys obviously fail to see, is that Oscar has always wanted to fight Tito in a rematch( the only problem is the purse for both fighters). He is throwing these indirects to bring Tito out of retirement. *** PBF, he aint **** and will get exposed soon if he actually dares to fight a fighter who has momentum going. Tito is probably not going to come back due to the amount that oscar is probably offering him. Tito wanted and will always want 50/50, these guys have pride, plus regardless of what the majority of the world thinks-Tito has a win over DLH.
C'mon if PBF don't fight I'll fight Tito? As A fighter you would feel insulted at a comment like that. Tito is probably thinking " show me the money".Comment

lol Trinidad should have done the right thing and helped Oscar get that fight, but nooooo he's still upset that everyone knows he got a gift decision when he fought Oscar...Originally posted by borikua"I think Mayweather would mean more for my career, because he is pound-for-pound the best. But I can go either way, because both fights are big."
Oscar added: "My choice right now would be Floyd," De La Hoya said. "But if negotiations get complicated, I know I can make a deal with Trinidad easy, because he really wants the fight."
Guys I just heard Tito on the radio and he said that he aint coming back, that he didn't told DLH that he wanted a rematch next year, he actually said that DLH might be playing mind games with Floyd to get a better purse for his final fight.
I think that Oscar doesn't have to play these games, Floyd wants this fight and imo he will take something the lines of a 30/70 split...Cuz we all know that DLH wont give him a 50/50 split.
But when ever Oscar is mentioned around Tito, he gets the most spitefull look on his face, lol it's kind of funny and kind of sad..Comment
