De La Hoya Eyes Fights With Vargas, Wright and Trinidad for 2006!

Yesterday afternoon, former six division champion Oscar De La Hoya informed members of the press in attendance at Bernard Hopkins open workout in Miami that the three opponents on his radar for 2006 are Winky Wright, Felix Trinidad and Fernando Vargas. Since Trinidad has again retired, and De La Hoya has little to no chance of defeating Winky Wright, Fernando Vargas seems to be the most realistic opponent of the three  as of now. Vargas will face Javier Castillejo on HBO in Chicago on August 20 before he thinks about avenging his 2002 KO loss to the Golden Boy. In the past De La Hoya has said that he would never give a rematch to someone he's knocked out, apparently his opinion has changed since Vargas and not Zab Judah, Antonio Margarito, Floyd Mayweather Jr, or Shane Mosley is among his final three choices.
