Did anyone hear toward the end of Margarito/Williams fight Merchant saying that Oscar will finish his career at 147 ? Who will he fight ?
Yeah Hatton is theo nly one of taht group that he would even consider fighting. Imagine what Cotto would do to his golden boy looks.
NEITHER. The Welterweight Division is a big party right now, and I'd like to use Bob Arum's designation to say that there are Business Men (DelaHoya, Mayweather and to an extent, Mosley) and Fighters (Williams, Cotto, Cintron, Cottley, Margarito, Collazo, etc.) and DeLaHoya's intentions to go back to 147 are not good for the sport. What this does is that everyone holds their cards agains their chest to wait for DLH to make a move, rather than doing what they did last night: fight each other. He also fought the best at 147 (PBF) with all favoring him (location, small ring, gloves, catch weight, etc.) and fell short.
I dont see him going there he always says oh I can make 147 I got that low in camp but he always is 154 always.
I can see Hatton Delahoya sometime later this year at Wembley ..Oscar has already shown intrest in fighting Hatton and at Wembley so its only a matter of time.
