Zab Judah vs Oscar De La Hoya in the Works? Source Tells Doghouse Boxing talks to begin

A reliable source close to Zab Judah’s camp informed me here in St. Lucia while covering the Sho-Box card, that a match up between Zab Judah and Oscar De La Hoya may be in the works.

“Oscar is looking for a tune up next year. It makes sense.” The source said Zab was flying out this week to begin talks.

The bout makes sense as De La Hoya has claimed that he plans a 2008 return to welterweight and has “given Richard
Schaefer his marching orders” following the Cotto/Mosley bout last Saturday.

De La Hoya said he has plans for three fights in 2008, one of which may be a tune up.

More info to come.
