Not a chance, PPV has cut boxing out of the mainstream and kept it away from the next generation. The only saving grace is internet streams that the kids are so good at setting up, without the net boxing would be dead.

I just hope the fight takes place. I would respect both fighters win or lose.

Oscar, if anything, never had anything "handpicked". Dude handpicked tito, He Lost bernard, He lost vargas,Good win chavez, Old as dirt and way shot whitaker, Old as hell and shot paez, old and shot quartey, good win mosley Lost 2x etc? I think not. If those guys are handpicked, what would you call david diaz? Be reasonable. Losing to the best fighters he fought just proves my point more, and beating up old shot men is not impressive at all. Oscar is a fake champion.

The thread title is laughable. Pac KO's or forces gayweather to quit in 9 or less.

Marvin Haggler, he is my all time favorite boxer.

Pac will be 30 years old in 8 days so he is also past his prime IMO. Pac is still a beast and will KO Hatton if they fight. I just hope after that fight he stays at 130-135 ( for no more than a year or two) or just retires after his next fight as a top 50 all time great. Amazing that a 30 year old 106lb fighter could so brutally own a 154lb pinata who had hand picked belts in 6 divisions.

if oscar beat up old shot men and is a fake champion, then that would make pacs win against an old shot fake champion pretty meaningless wouldnt it? A 106lb fighter owing a 154lb fighter who is 1/2 a foot taller is still impressive. The way pac just destroyed him winning every second of every round makes it even more impressive. And Oscar quitting like a bitch in 8 is the icing on the cake.

Well Tyson is not even close to top 50 so we can start there. Move Tyson here he belongs to #287, bump Manny to #50 and then lets see what Pac does in 2009.

Floyd would never fight Pac, Floyd retired and did a great job avoiding many great fighters so why would her come back now and face any of them.

Pac wins by TKO, Floyd would quit after taking massive damage. Floyd is a coward and the pressure and damage would make him crumble.

David Haye will be exposed in 2009. Not sure if he will drop back to -200 or just retire in shame.

Dela Hoya Fans without a doubt. DLH is the most over rated fighter of all time, he is living proof good looks, charm and spin are more impportant than actually winning fights that matter.

Felix Sturm Felix Sturm

Not at all, Ali was amazing but is largly over rated when it comes to top 10 lists.

I just looked up jim lampley, larry merchant, max kellerman and harold lederman, and none of them have fought.. Quite disapointing really, as you prefer commentators to have fought, so they can give you more precise accurate professional commentating, and know whats it like to be inside the ring. anybody else feel the same sentiments?Nope. One has nothing to do with the other.

Haye has done nothing at heavyweight, he knows Wlad will KO him. Haye avoids real fights to prove he is worthy of a title shot, sure he can beat up 40 year old shot journeymen but he is terrified of facing a real top 10 heavy because he knows he will be exposed.

Toney is a quote maker, you have to love his brutal honesty.

Erik Morales sounds bitter from the two ass kickings Pac gave him.

Look what happened that last time Tyson was fighting a light heavyweight, Michael Spinks. Spinks was perhaps the best light heavy of all time, Tyson will kill Tarver.Cindy Lauper is also still the #1 pop artist and as hot as she was 2 decades ago. Tyson fans = delusional.

Fres Oquendo was never good so who cares about him. as for Toney at least he can still talk smack so he is still fun to watch.

what, so he should fight a 37 year old fighter who has had a lay off of about 3 years?Sure why not, better a world champion than a 40 year old bum who has been shot for years.
