    I read an article in The Cleveland Plain Dealer that said Oscar is ready and willing to fight Pavlik if Hopkins - Pavlik falls through.

    A bit late because the fight is already signed, but I would find it much more courageous if Oscar went up in weight and fought Pavlik for his last fight instead of getting Pacquiao to come up in weight and fight him. I mean Manny's next fight was supposed to be at 130 against Valero, he'd have to go up 17 pounds.

    You never know, Hopkins may fall and break his hip.

    Yep, Oscar is Bhops boss. If he told to break his hip he will have to do it :D

    De La Hoya - Pavlik seems very unlikely in light of the recent signing of Pavlik vs B-Hop.

    There you go... Oscar really has a sense for good timing, calling out Pavlik when he knew that BHop and Kelly already signed the contract.

    Oscar can really find ways to make himself look good before he finally takes on the smaller Pacquiao... :lol:

    He bravely made the statement AFTER he knew the Hopkins fight was signed. Sounds like a pretty poor attempt to sound brave to all of his fans. Both were known to be looking for a dance partner for at least a month. Maybe his hardcore fans will buy it. That is probably how the statment was aimed at.:patsch
