The 47-Year-old is now considering to follow the example of Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield, and to rise again in the Ring. While the two heavyweights for the show, want to compete, fights Oscar de la Hoya thinks even of a sanctioned Match, and would want to fight at Middleweight.
“I would like to actually see what makes Tyson,” said de la Hoya, the magazine “The Ring”. “I kept myself in shape, have trained. Of course, I’m still not in the shape to fight twelve rounds. I’m sure that I could come to the point. We will see. I want to see Tyson perform, wants to see how his reflexes are, and see if he gets more than three or four rounds. We will see and then I will make my decision.“ In 2012, the “Golden Boy was considered” a return to the Ring, this Plan I rejected, as his body differently than expected to the hard Training responded. Nevertheless, he reaffirmed his will to the current Comeback attempt. “I am considering it seriously. It doesn’t matter who I fight. Anyone who is the Best out there. The setting I have still.“
