    If he's going to fight again Nazim Richardson would be a good shout. He always seems to have the correct game plan and gives good advice between rounds. Seems to work with Hopkins and Mosley, so why not Oscar.

    Oscar is the most boring non warrior fighter we have ever had. The guy is good, yet does not warrant another top fight. He will probably try and make his next fight PPV and a superfight after quitting in his last fight and not looking very good. He is a good fighter, but not ATG. Hall of Fame yes.

    Oscar fought against Forbes in a non PPV event. I would say there is a chance that he could do that again. It could be a nice way for him to leave boxing.
    DLHs last fight free to view. It would have to be against a bum so he would look good but id watch it anyway.

    Yep. He would have been fine just keeping Mayweather. Oscar at 154lbs can still be fine, he simply weight drained himself to make Welterweight. It was a stupid move.

    Nazim is a gameplan specialist, so he would help also, but a return to Mayweather Sr. would be fine also. However, if Mayweather Sr. is getting paid more from Hatton, which is possible, he won't return.

    Maybe Oscar could use some of the money he made from AFFLICTION for appearing at the MMA Event across the street (What happened to my thread!!!:yep) and re-hire Floyd Sr. He needs to end it at 154, with Floyd Sr. in his corner against Julio Jr.

    I'll say this again . . . DLH changing trainer won't be a factor anymore at this point. His body and mind doesn't have it anymore to compete.

    oscars been through virtually every trainer, and few if any have made a big difference. For all intent and purpose he is retired. The talk of fighting JC jr. must be so insulting to him, as that kid is a B level fighter.

    Oscar needs to get over himself already. And the only way I think he wins again is against a B LEVEL fighter, like JCC Jr. A top 10'er would **** him up.

    Hopkins and Mosley are not washed up. DLH definitely is, and switching trainers won't change that.
