Oscar De La Hoya has scrapped his September 20 fight date and will instead fight on December 6 against an opponent to be named. According to ESPN, the fight will be in Las Vegas or Los Angeles. De La Hoya was scheduled to face Floyd Mayweather on that date in a reprise of the most lucrative bout in boxing history, but Mayweather scuttled those plans by abruptly retiring. Other bouts reportedly in the Golden Boy Promotions pipline are lightweights Juan Diaz vs Michael Katsidis in Houston on September 6, lightweights Joel Casamayor vs Juan Manuel Marquez in Las Vegas on September 13, super middleweight Shane Mosley vs TBA (possibly Sergio Mora) in Los Angeles on October 11 and former cruiserweight champion David Haye vs TBA in London on November 29.
