Vernon Forrest has called him out. Cotto wanted to fight him. Mayweather wants to fight him again. Roy Jones said he would go to 166 to fight Oscar. Now Margarito says if De la Hoya wants to fight May 3 ill fight you on May 3. Its pretty amazing that so many people want to fight Oscar considering how inactive this guy is. Shows how everybody not just Mayweather are driven by money.
Who wouldn't want to fight a guy that has huge payday power and very little chance of doing any real damage.
Last time DLH mentioned Roy and Roy called him on it, DLH said "Roy Jones, I didn't mean to offend you." It was on maxboxing. DLH was scared. Funny stuff.
Every fighter is interested in the paycheck. DLH's been the most call-out fighter of this era and it isn't even close. Mayweather's star status has been carefully navigated through (and built on) the likes of Gatti, DLH and Hatton...and now that he's reached that status he seems reluctant to get away from it. Cotto is the one fighter in the weight class who represents a great challenge and a great payday. As for DLH, it's doubtful he ever fights Forrest or Margarito...and it would seem more likely he'd fight Trinidad again than Jones.
I will fight Oscar on May 3rd for half the purse any fighter would accept. Someone call Oscar and lets sign this thing. :: Of course everybody wants to fight Oscar, it's the biggest payday in boxing right now.
I bet we see a DLH-Tito fight.. despite that goldy locks said he cant fight cotto cuz he promised his wife he'd never fight a puerto rican fighter again
Every boxer and the granmothers wants to fight dela its all about the green. Peopl complain about Oscar and then talk up Roy and TiTo, IMO both goes have less to offer than Oscar at this stage in their careers.
and when Oscar was asked how a fight between him and Roy would go he didn't know how to answer because he would further compromise himself. :laughing: He smiled and said: "It would be an interesting fight" ::
Hey Crackerking, are you saying you think DLH would beat Roy?:eeeek: :eeeek: :eeeek: Roy would have him making tacos in a month!
Yeah but Roy and Tito aren't holding any divisions hostage. Oscar holds 147 hostage and 154, and now since he's fighting Forbes, 140.:shit:
