Hasta La Vista Oscar!


The Golden Boy announced this afternoon that he will be retiring from the sport of the boxing. A career resume which includes ten world titles in six different weight classes and at one point boxing's most popular fighter.

Am I surprised? Hell no. After being Pacman's punching bag four months ago he'd be absolutely INSANE to even think about another fight. But real recognize real though. De La Hoya was in one of the most anticipated fights of all-time when he faced the former undisputed pound-for-pound king, Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr. Best believe he's living well of that $120 million beans generated by PPV sales alone.

So I'll pour some Mad Dog 20/20 for another fallen legend. This is for the career of the Golden Boy. We taking bets on how long and who he'll be facing next? De La Hoya/Mayweather Part. II, Battle of the Retirees?

Till' next time hater.
