I'm not saying Pacquiao is the greatest ever for fighting a drained De La hoya, but you have even less right to say Floyd accomplished anything that night against Marquez.
And if he couldn't stop a crippled marquez being almost twice his size, then I just see how he can stop de la hoya.
De La Hoya is more masterful defensively than Marquez is and is twice his size.Last edited by DARKSEID; 10-18-2010, 08:54 PM.

De La Hoya responded, "My heart still wants to fight, that's for sure", De La Hoya said. "But when your physical doesn't respond, what can you do? I have to be smart and make sure I think about my future plans."
that tells u that dlh's mindset. his body wasnt in the damn fight. if he couldnt hit manny, he damn sure wouldnt have been able to hit floyd. he would have been eating hits without getting anything in return. the same thing would have happened. has nothing to do with floyd or manny, it was all dlh, he was done and the fact that he was a zombie did not help his body at all.

JMM had way more than Oscar had, JMM faced a horrendous match-up problem, got knocked down and generally pummeled while barely landing at all. Yet at the end of the fight in no way did it appear that Floyd broke his spirit.
Oscar against Manny did not have the mindset to take that kind of whopping and keep trying.
Big difference between where those two guys were at. If you are willing to endure it will take you a long ways.
