    I don't think he will retire either but I think he returns for a bout or 2 at 154. Maybe against Mosley for a 3rd time and they both can retire after that.

    Not after the way he lost to Pacquiao. He wont ever ever fight Margarito after that display. Imagine if Margarito was the one fighting DLH Saturday? That would have not been boxing but ****.

    Oscar will not retire.. I do not think. He will fight again around June with the excuse that the weight was not right for him.

    Oscar has nothing left. For the sake of his health and as a long time fan I hope he retires. Everyone of his fights is on youtube, he could check those out if he misses the action that much.

    DLH best forget 147 lbs, he looked **** to put it very very mildly.

    Margarito would literally murder Oscar at 147.... mmmmm... might not be such a bad thing, lets get it on.

    All this talk about Margarito because he beat Cotto and Cintron and he is becoming the next Thomas Hearns of the welterweights. You guys are overrating him. He is not the caliber of Tyson in 1986. He is a decent puncher but not a one punch knockout artist. Margarito is a pressure fighter who likes to move forward and hit guys and overwhelm the smaller welterweights he fights. Shane probably falls under the category of the other guys he has fought recently, although Shane has fought at 154 and I think he might be a little stronger for a guy like Margarito than Cotto, even though Cotto beat Mosley. I am just saying I would not be surprised if Mosley's physical strength helps him in the fight, where his punching power might not. But if Mosley is physically strong with Margarito, could he mark up Margarito's face more than Cotto did? Anyway, I would like to see Margarito move up to 154 and fight bigger guys. He will look very ordinary like he did against Williams. Why do you think he looked ordinary against Williams. And I am not 100 percent sure Margarito would have beaten Oscar more conclusively than Pacman.
