Everyone here can agree if Oscar wanted to prove anything to the world right now it's either by facing Margarito or Forrest. He's opted out of both.
Back when Oscar was still good the best Junior Middleweight was Winky Wright, he ducked that too.
Back when Oscar was 140 and Tsyzu was the recognized champion and best of the division, he ducked that fight too. THIS fight by far was the fight to see in boxing. Two gold medalists coming out of the SAME Olympics. Even if Oscar has always been only strictly in it for the money this was the fight to take. He ducked this fight like Sugar Ray Leonard ducked Aaron Pyror.
A fight with Forrest. Oh yeah, the dude who lost to the great Sergio Mora just three months ago. Yep, that one. Also, what were the chances of a fight with Winky? Winky has to be one of the worst negotiators in boxing. As for Tszyu, where were all the offers, calling out and trash talking stuff?
Oscar disrespects his own people, Mexicans hate him more than I do. Even Margarito said he needs to a man and fighting Mighty Mouse is far from being one.
Vernon Forrest is the #1 154 lb fighter in the world and beat the only man who beat Oscar twice. Plenty of history there to make that a Super Fight.
You were barely alive when Oscar was 140 lbs, you wouldn't know anything about prospects for the Super Fight with Tszyu.
Shane Mosley was man enough to fight Winky, don't give me negotiation excuses. Oscar wants no part of Winky, never has and never will. Ain't got a god damn thing to do with money.

1. "Mexicans hate him more than I do"
2. "Even Margarito said" - Ah, must be true then
3. "You were barely alive when Oscar was 140 lbs" - So? I've learnt all about the sport and the history. Just like most other fans. You should know that, otherwise you wouldn't be arguing whether Ali is the greatest or not .
4. Oscar has fought more big names than Mosley.

This response is so completely off topic I can no longer even waste my time debating with you. Kid, you have a lot to learn.
whichever way the fight ends, itll be a good, highly anticipated night of boxing between 2 superstars in the sport (hopefully itll be worth the money and hv a somewhat decent, exciting undercard and pac vs DLH lasts longer than 8 rds). Its all upto Oscar hes got everything to lose in the fight, Manny is in a win win situation, he can get KTFO but still come out with some respect cause he is willing to move up 12pounds in weight in order to fight a much bigger,taller and superior boxer

i agree with u KABABAYAN!
if ever Manny won the fight,he'll win BIGTIME!imagine how huge the name OSCAR DE LA HOYA is.and even if he lose,it'll not affect his boxing career except that he will still be fighting other big names in higher weight class.
Absolutely ridiculous argument. You were barely alive/not alive when most/all the guys on your heavyweight top ten list were about. So how do you know about them? Because you research. It's the same way Historians learn about the past, they research.

Exactly. Ridiculous. I've done my research. I have all of Oscar's and Kostya's fights on DVD, not to mention hundred's on my computer. This dude is looking for any excuse to try and weaken my argument. And he's failing .
