Isn't this the fight that makes the most logical sense to end Oscar's career?? Similar weights, both Mexican background, Margarito's the champ and seen as tough as nails. Why has this fight not been discussed
Margo wanted that payday bad, thats why he held out so long to make a fight. I think ODLH said he wouldn't fight a Mexican. But before Margo beat Cotto he said he wanted the winner, but he never expected Margo to win.
i actually would rather see this then a cotto rematch i think oscar can win. but he wont cuz his stamina will fail him. he wont knock marg out. but that would be nice too. has marg ever been tested to the body? if u watch his fights he keeps he hunches over and keeps his elbows knited to his hips.
Oscar was on the Jim Rome Show the other day and that was the first questions Jim asked him. Oscar looked like he had gotten his hand caught in the cookie jar..Jim asked him "why dont you fight Margarito" lol...Oscar said who has Margarito fought? Cotto? WHo is Cotto? LMAO....cHICKEN **** MOFO.....
yes **** PBF margo...that would be a boxing lesson....ODL margo would be a good style match up...same size....ODLH has more skill and a lot of heart and a nice chin...MARGO has alot of pressure...and is a warrior with a great chin...this would be a dead pickem
he is delusional...he knows that pac will make more money but it is obv not the tougher fight...who is cotto is quite disrespectful coming from a guy who is fighting a guy so much smaller
i agree oscar-margarito would abe a good fight. but i think it would have been a hell of a better fight when oscar was young, hungrier and punching his weight beautifully. that's a fight i would have paid to see.
no for real? I need to hear this interview. The reason DLH fought Pac is far less risk and the same ballpark moneywise as a Margo fight. As a businessman it was the right move. The fight itself is terrible for boxing. We should have had DLH vs Margo and Pac vs Campbell or Marquez 3 or even Juan Diaz. Oscar ruined two great match ups to line his pockets. It was the right thing to do as a business man even though he is draning the nearly lifeless body of boxing of its remaining blood.
You described how Oscar looked so you are referring to TV? Because Oscar was just on Rome's TV show so it seems strange he would be on the radio show as well within a few days, and in the TV interview Rome didn't ask anything like this.
