News Eddie Alvarez in talks to fight Oscar De La Hoya

Ordinarily I'd take Oscar all day, but keep in mind Oscar is not a normal late 40s athlete. He had a bad drug addiction and has abused his body terribly. He will not have aged well.

I still pick Oscar to win, but he is not gonna be like other comeback fighters. Mike Tyson looked fast and powerful at 54. Oscar won't look like that I think.

Tyson fought another geezer who was there for the paycheck. Fighting someone still in their relative fighting prime is a completely different story. Even if DLH comes in great shape, fighting at 48 doesn't usually end well.

Do MMA or boxing fans actually want to see this?
 
Even the Paul-Askren fight will sell more than that lol.
 
Seriously what the feck is going on with these crossover fights. Stop already.
