    GBP must not be doing so good after all. Either that of Millie needs more money to shop and do her hair.

    I dont see any reason why he would get back in the ring.

    Oscar has been in decline since Shane 2, and I'd much rather he stay in retirement rather than go back to this whole part-time boxer thing he had going on. Oscar is shot, and that is from an Oscar loyalist...although he could probably still beat some guys, in the same way that Sugar Shot Mosley and Roy Captain Shot Jones can beat some guys.

    the funny thing that if true he'll come back and get a million dollar payday even though he sucks as a boxer and couldnt beat any of the top 20 guys from 140 to 160

    Hoya and GBP run out of money, thats why I think they make an option how to generate fundings. Because I am a fan of Hoya all i can to him is that DONT DO IT OSCAR!

    Nah . . . I hope not. DLH is history. The younger crop of fighters will simply tire him out and beat him.

    Going back fighting at this point will just tarnish his claim for a place in the ATG.

    He was my favorite fighter. If he comes back now I hope he gets his face pummelled in and disfigured. Especially if he comes back with the intention of fighting his precious little prospect Alvarez in what would be a fixed fight and obvious attempt to buy Alvarez more popularity in the US/Worldwide market.

    Oscar would only fight again out of desperation.

    Such as if Golden Boy is on the verge of bankruptcy.

    never thought about that.. it could be on his plan.. it'll be a great payday for both and DLH will keep all of the money in house and it'll be a win win situation..
