I may have missed last nights fight live but i've seen the round on youtube and i have to say i told you.
I said in nearly every one of my posts in a pacman/oscar thread that my prediction was oscar by SD but you can't sleep on pacman because he can win this.
It was very apparent to me that oscar killed himself to make weight and looked weight drained...he weighed in at 145 didnt he? I think he pushed himself too hard with that.
But that takes nothing away from pacman. the difference in hand/foot speed was really telling from the first round on.
oscar seemed really hesitant to pull the trigger in the fight. seemed like he was looking for the perfect oppertunity that never came.
Im glad i missed the fight (out working) because it would have made me sad to see such a one-sided fight with someone like oscar.
I give props to oscar that he actually went out and got one of if not THEE toughest fight he could find.
and props to pacman for going out there and proving majority of the world wrong. He showed a lot of courage to take this fight with such a bigger puncher than him and he went out and did exactly what he was supposed to do.
I said in many prior threads posted around the forum everyone kept saying its going to be a one sided fight and that oscar will take off pacman's head etc.granted i did predict oscar by decision i did say that its very possible for pacman to turn the tables with his speed and outwork oscar...people pretty much laughed at me for that type of statement...
Since were are pulling our own puds I called this one on the button too. Its just too bad no would step up and give me odds on a bet. Honestly DLH really helped everyone out by botching his training and fighting weight. Had he come in at 147 planned on using his size advantage this could have been a much closer fight..
what a weakass thread. predicting dlh by split decision than saying I told you so? ahha
Yeah for real. There are people who made a lot better better predictions on the fight. To say I told you so and not even pick the right guy to win? The audacity.
Seriously bro. I'd be more impressed if you bet the under on Pac in Vegas.The rest is horseshoes and hand grenades.honestly i felt this fight was going to be too close to be make a bet on (well any sane person at least)...i was wrong in that regard that pacman basically shut out oscar...i didnt expect it to be so one sided in anyone's favor...i thought they would trade off nearly every round until the last and it would be a close split decision.

Since you know it all, who wins Inkin or Balzasazy?
I am thinking of betting on that one.
And who wins Adamek-Cunningham or Holt-Torres.
I'd like to record your predictions for posterity.
haha.
dont take my word to the bank or anything...
this is just one of the few times where i was able to call it right where damn near 90% of the board thought i was just being crazy.
i said i thought oscar could win a split decision but dont be suprised if pacman beats him...
because granted oscar had the experience and physical size advantage but manny has the speed, stamina, etc. to out hustle oscar and thats what he did.
Many didnt believe that.
I think oscar was a bit weight drained but i dont believe thats the reason he lost...even if he came in at 150 i think it wouldnt have made that much of a difference...maybe he would have went all 12 at best in that case but would have still came up short.
the fight i'd probably love to see most is manny v. floyd...that would be HUGE (to me at least).
