      **** DLH. the longer this issue goes on the more respect he loses. He'd do well to just forget about this and fight somebody else if he cares at all about his rep, which clearly he doesn't.

        If it's not one thing, it's always another.

                I think it would be kinda interesting to see them box. However, I have seen a picture online today which shows the height difference. Oscar looks pretty big next to Manny, quite possibly simply too big. But in another, it looks pretty much like the difference with Steve Forbes to me,which was a competitive fight I believe. If Manny is a better fighter than Forbes, does he not have a real chance here? IF he carries the added weight well? I think he would. See for yourselves.



                And here is one with Forbes. http://www.thefightcountdown.com/images/OscarForbes.bmp

                Looks quite comparable I think

                    It seems like an intricate marketing scheme from GBP. Pacquiao fight starts hype, Margarito fight is announced, mega-million dollar farewell fight in the bag for Oscar. Perfect strategy!
