King speaks Rematch: De La Hoya vs. Tito Trinidad
Doghouse Boxing (April 27, 2006)
 
Don King
This past Tuesday in an International Conference Call Promoter Don King was asked if De la Hoya should beat Mayorga, would King consider De La Hoya vs. Trinidad rematch? (Instead of a Trinidad vs Mayorga Rematch.)

Don King's response: Well, de la Hoya wants to revenge his only – one of his losses to Tito – I wasn't going to say only because he did lose since then. But, that's definitely what he has in his plans and he's already looked past, that's what caused him all his consternation and all his problems is that he looked past Ricardo, trying to make the matches for all these other guys, you know, in trying to pull together fights that would be just as though Ricardo didn't mean anything. Now, he's got this fury and the wrath of Ricardo Mayorga on his hands. So, if he should be able to get through that wrath, which I think he's got two chances – slim and none and slim's out of town, then he naturally would want Tito as a grand finale to try to revenge the loss that he had in Las Vegas.

Don King continues: ...so he would try to avenge that loss and so therefore it would be great you know, but I don't think that's going to come to pass, so, if he does, I'll have Tito standing there ready hopefully and prayerfully that he will be ready to take on Oscar but he's dedicated and committed to fighting Mayorga and he said he would – you know we have to work on Oscar thing and but we'll work on that. But I'm – since he's willing to do that, I think we get either one.
