Poll: Who Wants to see Pacquiao-dela Hoya

Latest count : 28-22 in favor of those who don't want to see this fight

I want to see Oscar retire Manny for GOOD!!!:wave: Not at the level Pac is currently fighting . Manny's improved by leaps and bounds in the last few years, both offensively and defensively

At this point in his career, the big money fights will be the focus. I can see Pac fighting no further than 2009.

DLH should pick on someone his own size and Pac has unification business to do at 135. i also like to see PAC unify the belts ... but if a fight with hatton or oscar can be made, I would like to see that AS WELL...

yes pare, been a long time ! You're right, he's already the highest paid athlete, with the fight purse plus all the endorsements (Nike, etc.) P.S. Yup, got to meet the man himself the other day :) Di pa rin ako makapaniwala hanggang ngayon ! Sobrang down to earth ni Pac pare :) yup aside from his purse, share on PPV and he also gets the local contract for his fights so that's huge amount of money for each fight... not to mention those endorsement!! one word FILTHYRICH!!! lol PS nabasa ko nga sa Pinoy Lang, IDOL talagang dating ... rich, famous & filthy rich!!

I want to see Oscar retire Manny for GOOD!!!:wave: will not happen ... be very scared the last time Manny Got KOED at flyweight, he came back stronger than ever en route to beating Marco Antonio when MAB was king of the FW!!

long time no see bro Thrilla!! PAC is already the highest PAID Athlete in P.I. History, imho for 20M who will not fight ANYBODY for that kind of money... p.s. buti ka pa tol meet mo na si pac... yes pare, been a long time !

$20Millon = P900M, that will make him the highest-earning athlete in Philippine history, if he isn't already. I agree with you pareng jom's. Its a win-win fight for pAc long time no see bro Thrilla!!

its a win win fight for pac ... he got nothing to loose ... its not the first time he will be KOED then get the 10-15M ... but what if he wins?!? $20Millon = P900M, that will make him the highest-earning athlete in Philippine history, if he isn't already.

I'm sure he's gonna take that fight anytime, anyday. Problem is Floyd is hibernating, Hatton can't get out of the Malignaggi fight (Paulie doesn't want a step aside fee), and the only available juicy fight for him right now is DLH.

If Manny is after a boatload of money, then I'd rather see him against Maywheather at a catchwheight of 140-145lbs.

i dont think it would be a one-sided massacre, but i dont really care to find out. manny has enough business to take care of and is rich enough that he doesnt need to participate in a circus sideshow as a big fan of de la hoya growing up, i want to see him go out on a more credible victory. not to say pacman isnt credible, but no one will respect that win and if he loses, he will surely get it from everyone! i wanna see margarito-de la hoya in a mexican pride battle, but i think cotto will probably win. in that case, cotto-dlh works for me! floyd gets the winner! oh yes... he will come back for whatever is left of the winner. you know that right?!? The guy has plans to run for president someday. Catching Oscar in his last fight will net him the moeny he needs to run for office

Hey fountino, now that you mentioned it, it does make sense from the money point of view . They won't make the PPV numbers with a DLH-Cotto fight will they ?

Alright, lets put all the discussions and arguments into a poll. I know personally for a fact that Pacman reads Boxingscene regularly, so lets have our voices heard by the man himself :) I hope Oscar's people get a chance to read this as well. i dont think it would be a one-sided massacre, but i dont really care to find out. manny has enough business to take care of and is rich enough that he doesnt need to participate in a circus sideshow as a big fan of de la hoya growing up, i want to see him go out on a more credible victory. not to say pacman isnt credible, but no one will respect that win and if he loses, he will surely get it from everyone! i wanna see margarito-de la hoya in a mexican pride battle, but i think cotto will probably win. in that case, cotto-dlh works for me! floyd gets the winner! oh yes... he will come back for whatever is left of the winner. you know that right?!?

I always root for any of the pacmans fights. Mannys knows best, trains harder when something's up to and is on the line. Lets get it on. :boxing:

i don't wanna see it but if it happens i will be rooting for pacman.

This matchup is ridiculous, Oscar only wants this bc he knows he will have every advantage out there and it will be his fight to lose. C'mon Manny, if you want the money just fight Hatton directly, a fight you have a legit chance of winning.
