I would like to see it. Oscar has a lot to prove against Sturm, and I think with him being motivated, he will beat him.

But Sturm does deserve a rematch.

I think Oscar is getting too late in his career to worry about who deserves a fight. If he only has one fight left in the tank then why waste it on Sturm?

I don’t think it would be a waste on Sturm. Well it would be a waste on Sturm if he has to decide between Margarito and Sturm.

I think Oscar can choose just about anyone between 147-160… he commands that kind of money and attention. A Sturm rematch would be good for us who really care about and follow boxing… but I think he’d rather appeal to the masses.

Is this a real question or wishful thinking? There’s no way in hell Sturm is getting a rematch. If ODLH is trying to give anybody a pity match it will be Margarito. He’ll probably sign Margarito anyway. I think ODLH fights PBF then Mosley (whether he wins or loses against PBF) and then fights Trinidad for a retirement match.

Why on Earth, would Oscar want to go anywhere near Strum again?

It is far to a difficult fight, for too little a reward, too late in de la Hoya’s career.

If I was Oscar, I would not touch Strum with yours 😉

As a career ender, I think fighting Sturm or Margarito would be a waste. Give us a mega fight for a finally.

Sturm would just beat him again. With no Hopkins fight on the horizon he will get the decision this time.

i think if he shows up to fight Sturm the way he looked on Saturday, he could very well become the new WBA middleweight champion of the world

Oscar has no business with sturm it was proven in their first fight. sturm is a solid middleweight oscar would be a blown up welterweight. although I believe an in shape delahoya can give sturm a run for his money. he was so fat and pudgy in the first fight.

Against Sturm all the flaws in his style were exposed and Sturm has gotten better then he was then, I don’t think DLH would ever fight Sturm again, too much risk which risks too many big fights. He won’t be fighting for a whike because he suffered a rotater cup injury while beating up Mayorga. Same injury Vitali quit about.

could you elaborate on that. all sturm did that night was jab jab jab, he rarely followed up with a right or a left. oscar was just in with a guy bigger than him, who he under estimated and showed up without any training not making excuses for oscar he got what he deserved. as a veteran professional he should have come prepared. he embarrassed himself and a lot of his fans.

I’ll take that.

Hell no Oscar will NEVER give Sturm his rematch.

To say that all sturm did that night was jab jab jab & that he rarely followed up with a right or a left shows that you need to watch the fight again…no offence chamiley…because I know that sounded harsh…but really…you need to watch the fight again.

Not only did Sturm wear Oscar down & beat him at his own game…the art of the jab. Sturm dominated Oscar physically in no way that he ever had been before. Not Shane, not Tito, not Quartey, outmuscled Oscar that way.

Sturm cut the ring off & cracked Oscar with left hooks all night that could not miss. Sturm went back & forth all night with his jab & used his left repetively & then against struck back with his jab…he pretty much neutralized anything Oscar had.

What more do you need.

Sturm threw combinations & busted Oscar’s face up with his jab. Whenever he rarely threw his body shots…he moved Oscar. 160lbs or not…Oscar can still fight & effectively as was shown this past weekend.

Sturm deserves the credit. You watch that fight again…then you watch his other fights…even his losses to Hopkins & Mosley & you tell me that you truely believe that it was he who embarrassed himself & not Sturm.

People need to give Sturm the credit he deserves…they also need to see more than just one or two fights before passing judgement on the mans skills. Oscar lost won that fight for a reason.

as long as oscar can get him to come down to 154…I don’t see oscar stepping up in weight to try that again…the Hopkins fight is still fresh in the back of his mind…

Oscar threw that fight. Say what you want. Who is Oscar’s partner? Liver shot is a liver shot, but that wasn’t a real liver shot, and it didn’t have much on it.
