amesquita11 ,sorry that you missed the point ,i have been around boxing for 35 years and after watching dela hoya fight most people because of patriotic pride cant see that he is a self promoting fraud ,this guy only got recognition because he was born in america ,there have been superior boxers from mexico that because of the language barrior do not get the same recognition
@maxpuerco Delahoya IS not a fictional caracter he is the real deal.. only a fool would say somthing like that...Rocky movies are very inspirational , not only to Italians but also to mexicans..It nice to see Oscar paying homage to his favorite Movie....
oscar de la hoya just announce his retirement today. I'm pissed and sad, can't believe Golden Boy is gone. My only idol is "GONE". Best Mexican American athlete Ever.
I'm sorry too, but he probably wants to live a long life without injury. He'll always be one of the greatest. I am a Rocky fan, and I have always wanted to run those steps. Oscar, your the real deal, but I still want to run those steps.
He will not fight margo cause he is mexican and oscar says he will never fight another mexican after the backlash he got from beating chavez. although it wold be a good fight oscar would be too quick for margo.
Simply, because he said that he would face the winner of Cotto vs Margarito. Now because he saw how Tony demolished Cotto he decided to make Manny Paqcuiao go up two divisions to make an absurd fight. DLH stands 5'10", he fought up to 160 and Manny started his career at 106 pds, so obviously he has no word or credibility. This fight is a disrespect to the sport. DLH fears Margarito!!!!
your overlooking his whole carear on the pacqauio fight. and i also belive he is ducking marg but still he is a legend and there is no reason he shouldnt be in the hall of fame
Perhaps he should be, but this fight take a lot of credibility away from him. A lot of people is upset with the making up of this fight. There are more money-making atractive fights for the fans, Williams, Cotto, Margarito, etc, but Manny? mmmmnop!!!!!
Also, explain to me that if he hasn't ducked anybody why not facing Antonio? He's the Top Dog or the man of the moment of the welterweight division and almost the same size.
That fight will be on sometime soon and Margo is gonna ko him next time but, let's face it, bring the match any fan want to see right now, not that circus with Pacman.
yeah just like marg ko'd him last time lol the fight with marg wont happen its about buisness delahoya will make 5 times as much money fighting manny than he will antonio. marg has got fight the the guys in his era just like when delahoya fought the guys in his trinidad,shane mosley,vargas,mayorga,qaurtey and hopkins marg wins one big fight and he suddenly deserves the big payday when he still has unfinshed buisness with clotty and williams when he beats them then he has a valid arguement
I have to recognize that he is a great businessman, not a sportman. Its not about who makes more money, its about who left his legacy trough this sport. There's no more of that era of Hagler, Leonard, Duran, Hearns, Benitez, etc who fight each other for the love of boxing. DLH wants to retire healthy and its obvious that he would get really beaten badly against Margo. If he cannot fight the best out there in the division, then why continuing fight?
...from the East coast to Oscar-thanks 4 being a true American and champion at heart-much respect-AS 4 the (Mexican)jealous Nationals on the West side>OSCAR BELONGS TO THE U.S.A. NOW.You don't like it-leave.
Louheff , You sould like somone, Who as never Done anything in his Life. how sad!Delahoya, the best Mexican American Boxer ever.
