    Can Oscar get any respect against Pacquiao?

    Is there any outcome in which Oscar will gain credit for against Pacquiao? If he loses to Pacquiao then he looks like a complete idiot. If he beats Pacquiao up then it confirms he was a big guy beating up on a lightweight. If its a very close battle he still loses face b/c he had a close fight with a lightweight.. and he's a junior middleweight. There are many more potential ways for this bout to go wrong.. Can anyone find an angle in which Oscar comes out looking like a champ??

    He'll look like a douche regardless, unless he calls off the fight.

        I can't think of any way he can gain respect from this fight, the only thing he gains from this fight is money.

            If Silencers agrees.. It's gotta be true. I think what's most shameful is that Oscar has the nerve to attempt selling a beef angle.. He really thinks boxing fans are half ******ed.

              This fight isn't in stone yet and Oscar is putting his foot in the pool of public opinion. When he sees the sort of adverse reactions he's going to pull out of this one.

                He'll still get probably over a million others'.

                This fight has been talked about for the past week with strong criticism coming from fans and press but Arum and Schaefer are still going to meet up to talk about the fight on Wednesday I believe. I think this fight has an 80% chance of happening.

                And no doubt they'll sell it as a personal animosity thing between DLH and Pacquiao like some wrestling storyline that most fans would see through.

                  The angle that best shows off his fattened bank account afterwards.
