    Oscar recently said in several Interviews that he is interested in having one last fight. Could Miguel Cotto be a possible opponent???

    Sound off...

    I'd like to see this actually, and I think the Oscar that fought Floyd would beat Cotto, always have. I don't know if Oscar can even get to that form again though.

    If he does...It will likely be Hatton @ 154!

    As he has mentioned he would like to fight him in Wembley Staduim

    4 the record...

    Throw Hatton in there and you have a round robin of the unfairly and illegally squashed by PEDs club members.

    depends on weight

    154.. if oscar can bulk back up a bit so that he fills out his frame again (rather than a shrivelled up, shrunken form!)... and can make 154 with ease... then hell yes.. let's have it! great fight. even if this oscar is nowhere near as fast as the oscar who unloaded on Mayorga at 154 (and did well vs. B-Hop at 160 before that) <-- and THAT oscar is nowhere near as fast as the one who fought Mosley twice (the pre-middleweight Oscar!)

    cotto would win, at least from their fight against Manny perspective, Cotto put a much better fight... DLH looks like a punching bag for manny.

    A half-decent version of DLH would win lopsidedly.
