        If these were the days of same day way ins, I would be inclined to agree. But Oscar will be replenished and a good 12 to 15 lbs heavier than Manny come fight time. Still...............go Manny!!!!!

            I just thought of something. Does anyone think HBO will do a 24/7 series on this fight? If so, how will they spin it? I hate to believe the general public would consider this fight to have any meaning. And I will give odds to anyone who wants to bet this is Oscars last fight. Whats left? Most realistic fans see little chance for Pacquiao. If DLH wins, as most expect, big deal. How will HBO spin this fight into not just a PPV success, but a mega success?

              I think they will. This fight could draw a ton of PPV buys. It will be dubbed the fight of the century. The P4P #1 vs a boxing legend. I wouldnt be suprised if the phrase "David vs Goliath is used. I could see more of the show being centered around manny and his triumphs. A small man vs the world type senario. The heart of a large champion. More people could relate to that.

              If DLH loses he will certainly retire. If he wins I can see maybe wanting to fight cotto but not many other fighters. Cotto is a small WW in hieght but not thickness. It will be interesting fo sho.

              Good thought G

                I agree with all this. The biggest problem I see though is that if Oscar makes this fight look easy or takes Manny out quick, the public is going to cry rip off! On one side of the coin this fight brings boxing good exposuer. On the other side, it has the overwhelming potential to bring it the kind of exposuer the sport can do with out.
