    maybe Pacquiao can beat Oscar Dela Hoya

    maybe Pacquiao can beat Oscar Dela Hoya


    im not so sure who to pick in the ODLH v Pac fight because allthough commonsense is telling me to go with Dela Hoya's size ,Boxing skills ,Power im not sure how much he has declined

    in the Forbes fight i saw signs that he is a lot easier to hit his reactions have slowed down considerably also Oscar has never had great stamina even in his prime and now he is 30+ lets not forget how easy Forbes was able to hit him and how fast Manny Pacquiao is and lets remember that Oscar is a one handed fighter he knocks people out with the left hook but he does not have a great right hand and Manny is a southpaw the punch to look for against a Southpaw is the right hand i know most of time its a set up shot for the left hook but i still think Oscar is going to struggle with Pacs southpaw style and speed


    Oscar will get hit in this fight and he will tire there is no question about that so i give Pac a great chance it does not look like the mismatch people think when u weight everything up

    think about the last time Oscar faced a rapid fire small man in Shane Mosley he got hit with a lot of shots and tired IMO

    Pacman carried the flag during the oping of the Olympics but DLH is just too good, plus Pac would be making a huge jump in weight.

      its just too much weight for pac to out on and look sharp aswell...

      everybody's talking about how much dlh has declined but i doubt manny would be able to take advantage of that because of the size difference and the jump in weight

        having revised my opinion im not sure now because Dela Hoya copes pretty well with Southpaws he hammered Bredahl,Camacho and he did okay against Whitaker and Pac does not have a jab to keep Dela Hoya off him he usually only fights one way and if he fights like that against ODLH he could deffo get Koed its okay outboxing Diaz but ODLH ,but then i think about Oscar's age reflexes stamina and i think hmm

        im not sure who to pick now lol

          I don't think there is any way Pac can win this fight. Oscar is nowhere near shot enough I don't think.
