How do you no its May??? who do u think will be the oponent
I think so. It's in his blood and he makes a killing. He'll fight again.
He'll return, but he would be stupid to fight Winky.

Oscar likes to fight in May because of Cinco De Mayo. The Floyd fight was that weekend and I believe the Mayorga fight in 2006 was aswell.

Winky has made it known he wants Oscar next, the payday and exposure will tempt anyone 147 - 160 to try and agree a weight to fight Oscar.
I would be damn surprised to see DLH fight Winky. He ducked him when he was in his prime, why would he try to fight him now that he is at the back end of his career?

Who ducked who??? I cant remember oscar ducking any fighter and winky just hasnt had the chance until his fight against taylor.
neither have ducked anyone, delahoya has already announced he will fight on may 3rd of next year i believe. the opponent is unknown but i guarentee you it will be for a belt in the welterweight division. possibly cotto or cintron. Who knows in a year. oscar wont announce an opponent until january or something alon gthose lines but yes he will be back, he's already confirmed that.
would like to see
DLH Vs Cotto
you know the BS
Cotto from and lives in PR
DLH Lives in PR and is the star it would be a good hyped up fight.
i agree, they could hype it up as Revenge for the tito loss to delahoya, and then dela will get ko'ed by a body shot. i'd pay to seee it.

I'd see it a week after you.:thumbsup:
Id certainly consider going to the states to watch it.
Cotto would murder De La Hoya at this point, and DLH knows it, so i dont see him taking the fight.

Winky called DLH out years ago and DLH ducked him. I like DLH so I'm not just making this up. DLH has fought damn near everyone,but not Winky.
After his second fight with Shane Mosley Winky called out De La Hoya and he wanted none of it.

Ok fair enough. was this at middleweight? Maybe he saw fights against hopkins at middle bigger.
At the time DLH had just been took out by Hopkins, while Winky has just beat SSM for the 2nd time. He said afterwards he wanted Tito, DLH and Hopkins i think, hes got 2/3 so a fight with DLH would be good for him.
He's definately going to fight again. Ricky Hattons name keeps popping up as the opponent at Welterweight.
