#2Are you joking? I assumed you were at first. Pacquiao wouldn't even be a favorite against Nate Campbell or Juan Diaz in my book. For one he didn't beat Marquez. Marquez got ripped off in both of their fights and Pacquiao went to 135 to get away from him. Marquez went to 135 with him for his dued rematch and beat a proven vet for his title. Pacquiao went after and beat the worst 135 'titleholder' in years, a guy that won it on a lucky punch and never defended it in a legit way. He was a walking bag that got lucky on the cards in a defense against a shot Morales.
Instead of staying at 135 to make it probably boxing's greatest current division, he took the money in a hopeless situation. De la Hoya pussed out to make this fight happen. You can't count the amount of contradictions from this guy on why he couldn't or wouldn't fight Paul Williams or Margarito, but didn't mind screwing over Marquez. Now De la Hoya says he will fight again because he's feeling the heat of his legacy being tarnished for ending on a note like this. Mexicans despise him because he wants to puss out, but had no remorse for taking the torch from the Mexicans' god Julio Ceasar Chavez.
Marquez and Morales brutalized him at 126 and 130, so what do you think De la Hoya will do? This fight should have never been made and it's an insult to all boxing fans. The line right now is a bargain to say the least. Take full advantage of the idiots putting money on Pac.Comment -

#3Hey.. I feel you bro.. as the cliche goes.. don't hate the player, hate the game!lol.. As far as I know, this is just an exhibition game. rumor goes that this game may be fixed. Now, as far as I know, they are also cooking up a match between Pac and Juan Diaz, maybe on March next year.
now, why would they tag Pac as "the mexican assassin"? here's a nice recap on the mexican boxers he fought with..

#4Most mexicans have the straight forward robotic style that PAC-Man just eats up... standing in front of Pac-man is asking to get KO'ed. The time spent with Mayweather Sr has Oscar boxing like a brotha hes in an out moving not just toe to toe Machismo style anymore (at least most of the time). Oscar will take a DEC over Pac-man... If one thing the Golden Boy has its a chin and hes still the better boxer of the two.Comment -

#5if a fighter makes a big move up in weight, he needs to be able to avoid getting hit flush...james toney, roy jones, hopkins. Pac doesn't fall into this category to me. we've seen him get hit flush. i took oscar. he's faded, but not that faded.Comment -
