Eric Gomez who not only happens to be the vice-president for Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions, but is also a close friend of De La Hoya's since they were children, feels Manny Pacquiao is a dangerous fight for De La Hoya to take. There is a lot of commotion in the boxing world that De La Hoya maybe gearing up to take on Manny Pacquiao in his final fight before hanging up the gloves.
Speaking to dzSR radio's Dennis Principe, Gomez stated in regards to De La Hoya taking on Pacquiao: "[That] is a dangerous fight for Oscar."
Gomez added during the interview: "Manny has the speed and he’s got the power. It’s a very dangerous fight for Oscar."
Even though Gomez has some concerns about the fight, Golden Boy Promotions is serious about making the fight happen. "It’s a matter of getting together and making the deal happen. It’s a matter of getting the numbers and to see if we can get it done.”

Now that's what I call "leaning towards a Pac-DLH showdown".
Oscar's people already making a case for a "competitive" fight . lol
Eric is looking for a phone call. I mean, if Pac has the speed and the power, he might tell me that Oscar could get killed by Cotto's stare.
By defeating Pacquiao, DLH may be looking to get both money and the one thing that has eluded him: the support and respect of hardcore Mexican boxing fans.
Mexico is desperately looking for someone to spank Manny and knock him out cold. Knocking Pacquiao out would probably win him that support and respect.
--Just to be clear... if he makes this fight, he loses all my respect--
The thing is Some Mexicans like Pacman more then Oscar my mexican friends never respected oscar for what he did to JCC they said oscar showed no respect and was picking on an old man 2 times.
