I was talking to a buddy of mine about boxing and he mentioned DLH is fighting again. And at the 147 pound weight class. I think that will definitely be to his advantage. I really doubt anyone in that weight class could beat him. He is a world class fighter and truly has fought the best.

I have to assume he won’t be fighting any of his past opponents. Felix Trinidad prefers fighting in the higher weight class if he even fights anymore. I think he is done with Sugar Shane Mosley. And for some reason, I don’t think there will be any rematches with Bernard Hopkins (light heavyweight) or Floyd Mayweather JR (currently retired).

I don’t know how many more fights DLH has left in him, but he did look good in his last fight. I have a feeling he might be fighting Ricky Hatton. He would be tailor made for him. I think it would be another Gatti repeat type of fight. I just don’t think Hatton is at that level yet. Also, I think Hatton prefers to fight at 140. I remember him beating Kostya Tszyu and thought this guy is good. But then his next fight against Luis Collazo, he barely won in the judges scorecard. But I had him losing that fight. When they interviewed him after, he basically gave the impression he was overwhelmed and should go back down in weight. I don’t know if he has the confidence to beat a top contender just yet. He is 41-0 but only a few noteworthy opponents fought.

There are quite a few better fighters out there that would give him a better match I think. Like Cotto, Williams, Margarito, Cintron. I think DLH is looking for a big name to beat and a big PPV event, that would be Hatton I am guessing. It will probably happen on Cinco de Mayo again. That is another $50 million in the bank for DLH whoever he fights.
