Yet, if he does return, he says he is looking for an easy high-profile fight and he believes that is taking on GGG.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know how easy GGG would be for me? Oh, my gosh,\u201d De La Hoya told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxingscene.com\/de-la-hoya-designs-on-fighting-golovkin-comeback-fight-seriously--153539\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BoxingScene.com<\/a>. \u201cIt would be a high-profile fight, that\u2019s for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oscar De La Hoya is currently 47-years-old and has not fought since 2008 when he lost to Manny Pacquiao. GGG, meanwhile, is 38-years-old, so De La Hoya and is getting up there in age. He obviously is not in his prime anymore but still is a world-class fighter and has only lost to Canelo Alvarez, so why De La Hoya believes it would be an easy fight is uncertain.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, Oscar De La Hoya says he is very interested in watching <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mmanews\/pro-fighters-make-their-picks-for-mike-tyson-vs-roy-jones-jr\/\">this Saturday&#8217;s fight between Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr.<\/a> to see how well older fighters fare. So, if they both look good, perhaps De La Hoya will return and having his comeback fight against GGG.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve already bought the pay-per-view for Tyson-Jones. I\u2019m the first one to turn on my TV and I\u2019m excited to watch and see how Tyson feels and how he looks because that\u2019s going to be a huge determining factor (in if I come back),\u201d De La Hoya said. \u201cBut it\u2019s not going to be the only factor in the decision that I make.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because Tyson has been working out now for quite a while. We had similar careers, similar paths. We\u2019ve had a fast life outside the ring,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;I want to see how he looks. If his body breaks down in one round and Jones beats him or knocks him out then I have to think twice about doing what I\u2019m going to do. I\u2019m 90 percent that I will come back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Who do you think would win, Oscar De La Hoya or\u00a0Gennady Golovkin?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oscar De La Hoya believes Gennady Golovkin is an easy opponent for his return to boxing.
