    He should have announced his retirement, in the ring after Mayorga. That would have been a lot more glorious.

        it kind of makes sense, especially since the last time we seen him really use the left hook was against mayorga, back in the day, delahoyas left hook was one of his main punchs and a powerfull one. I always wondered why he hardly threw the left hook and now i know.

          In an interview conducted by Dan Rafael of ESPN.com, Oscar De La Hoya gave him a few good reasons why retirement might be a good idea. Rafael got Oscar to list his injuries. Suprisingly, Oscar held nothing back and gave ESPN a run down of his ailments.

          Oscar tells ESPN: "I felt more pains in the Mayorga training camp than any other training camp ever."

          The details of his problems (As listed by ESPN):

          • "My left rotator cuff is torn. I've lived with it with for the last 4-5 years. When I sleep at night, to this day, I wake up and it's uncomfortable. It hurts. It's in pain."

          • "My hand. I am tired of getting shots on my [left] hand to numb it so I won't feel the pain. I'm tired of it."

          • "My elbows. I have arthritis in both elbows. I get shots. It sucks. It really does."

          • "My back flares up."

          • "This knuckle [on the middle finger of my right hand] still hasn't gone down since the Mayorga fight. I'm thinking it's broken. I touch it and it hurts. It's been like this for two months, since the middle of training camp."




          Sounds like Oscar is going to hang it up... What do you guys think?
          Does PBF really needs Oscar??? The only reason he want to fight is for the big money. I personally could careless for this fight. Beating Mayorga doesn't prove ****, what Hopkins did was big. I would've respected Oscar more if you would've given Sturm a rematch, because he lost that fight by a pretty big margin in most peoples eyes.

                  I think its a great move that delahoya retire. He has nothing more to prove and a win over mayweather who is un-proven at 147 means nothing.

                  He has his health, his has money, a beautifull wife and has a family.
                  Theirs no need for him to enter the ring again, his legacy is secured!
                  agree with you at least now he is retired as a champion

                    Dude, that fight was not even close, Sturm clearly was robbed! That's what I call a robbery, not close fights like Barrera/Rocky.

                      delahoya threw a bunch of punchs in combos, how can sturm win with just a jab and to top it off he was back pedaling, delalhoya forced the action
