No, the announcement hasn't happened, but they spoke to him on the issue before but he wouldn't give details.

But he said:

---

"I'm excited because people will be shocked," he said, flanked by business partner and close friend Richard Schaefer. "You know I've always fought the best. That's all I'm going to say."

I have no idea what De La Hoya meant with that opening remark, but his comments became no more clear, so I asked him if he could be more specific. He couldn't.

"I haven't been this excited since winning the gold medal. It's a major move in my career," he said. "It's strategic and well-thought out. I've been thinking about this and it's firm. People ask me if I'm going to retire, and I didn't want to base my decision on my last performance because emotions are riding so high or so low after a fight, you don't want to make a decision like that. You don't want to think about it that night. You want to make an intelligent decision."

Take what you will from it, but I honestly don't think he's ready to retire. Why would he say retiring is 'exciting' and a 'major move in his career' and I don't think peopel would be shocked if he retired, and they suggested people will be shocked, which makes me think we could be in for another fight, namley Oscar v JCC Jr.

He mentioned fighting the best. JCC Jr. is hardly the best and Hoya can still bring in a big fight. I think it might be Paul Williams. If Hoya fights again it will be 154 and Williams just made a humungous splash in the division.
