    Undefeated Mexican and son of a legend Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is the logical choice for DLH's last opponent.
    Huge for marketing and compelling because of the various connections.

    I don't wanna see him fight anymore, but if he is gonna fight someone then i want to see him fight Shane Mosley one last time. 3 reasons

    1) The 2nd fight was very controversial. Both the scoring and the steroids allegations

    2) Are they shot or are they still players in the division. We know what a fight between these guys looks like when they are prime (or very close), so we can make a good comparison

    3) Was Cotto's win better than Floyd's? A big debate.


    IMO Shane Mosley nearly shuts out Oscar.

    Trinidad.

    This undeserving loss is a huge thorn in his resume and needs redemption to complete his career.

    01. Miguel Cotto -- Oscar wants the best and who's better than Cotto atm? This might be a win for Cotto, but I think it would be a lot more entertaining than the fight between Oscar & Floyd..
    02. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. -- In Mexico of course, because this fight would be huge for his last fight.. Who better to end JCC Jr.'s undefeated record?
    03. Sugar Shane Mosley -- Basically the same reasons Pharaoh listed..

    1. The Cotto/Margarito @147. High risk high reward.
    2. Winky Wright @154. Wright is a tough fight for anyone.
    3. Kelly Pavlik @ 160. Consedering his previous fights at 160 this may be a higher risk/reward than the winner or Cotto/Margarito.

    I knew you would come out of the woodwork. STOP. Oscar vs Pac?

    Oscar vs the winner of the Cotto/Margarito fight or Chavez, Jr. Pavlik? He looked horrible with Sturm and he look alright with Hopkins. He will do well at 150 to 156. That is it. If by some miracle, he beats Cotto, just say goodbye to a living legend.

    Sturm, because he was robbed in the 1st fight.
