De La Hoya's December Fight?

My viewpoint is this.

Floyd and Oscar know business and know legacy. Floyd is going to drop this next fight to Oscar in a close contest, maybe a last round TKO or something.

Why? Cha-CHING.

December Fight - FMJ vs ODLH, 1-1 against each other and winner takes all in their final fight, a fight both will go all out in.

FMJ will make what, 20 mil for this fight? He'll make 30-40 mil for a rematch if De La Hoya beats him

What one thing do neither of these fighters have in their career? A big name trilogy. What one thing tends to set fighters up legacy wise, not to mention brings interest to boxing? Trilogies.

Look at Micky Ward, substandard fighter still getting credit for his trilogy.

 

I think it'd be good but I can't see DLH taking on Winky as his last fight. Too much of a stylistic nightmare for DLH. If DLH was a hungrier younger version of himself I could see him do it but not now, not this close to the end. If he gets through Floyd it will be Cotto. If he doesn't than Floyd will probably be his last fight.

 

Well, that's a very involved plot that people would see through very quickly. It's not so easy to throw a fight, especially by tko, as people think. Remember Floyd's acting against Big Show? crawling along the floor like he was a jedi being zapped by the evil emperor?

 

would've been cool years ago, but he's all about cotto in december

 

He's been pretty upfront about wanting to fight in the big arena in Mexico.

My guess is JCC Jr would be the guy assuming a BIGGER fight with Cotto or Hatton doesn't come up first.

 

If he can't make Cheato Trinidud work his ass back to 160 then he will probably fight Cotto or Mosley.

I don't think DLH would fight Winky at this point, Winky has been out of the picture for a while and the other fights are just bigger and signify payback if he wins.

 

I heard DLH saying that there is something he can see in Cotto that he might
defeat him. I suspect that his fight in December might be agains Cotto.

 

You should start writing novels, instead of posting on here cause that story is wildly fantantic.
First of, i think win or lose for DLH he wont fight Mayweather a third time. Even if they'll be even a third fight wont be necesary.

 

The talk of a December fight between Cotto, or a Mayweather rubber match if DLH pulls off the upset is just that, talk.

Only gullible people would actually believe it, so naturally, boxing fans fall for that crap.

Fights of that magnitude would take WAAYYYY more time to properly promote.

May 2009 if those fights happen.

 

Last fight?

Cotto.

 

Felix Trinidad at a catch weight of 157:deal

 

i don't know if that would be his last, and if it is i would be guessing that its hatton provided he wins against lazcano. Oscar wouldn't be fighting someone like wright for his last fight..
