      Look, Manny has no buisness moving up that high in weight. Im a Pacquaio fan, but he has many challenges at 135 where he still hasn't fully proven himself yet. He is totally unproven at any weight higher than that and is fighting a guy who campaigns at 154. Do you really consider this a fair match up when one guy is not only giving up 7" in reach, 4" in height, but has only 1 fight 3 weight classes and almost 20lbs south of where Oscar has been fighting for the past 7 years? Come on now.


      I seen that list of fighters at 135 and i see him running through that....And manny at 135 looks solid, he has good genes...Him gaining another ten pounds, it will be a breeze....Plus Manny is in his prime while Oscar is old....Manny is built for that weight....People are truly cutting manny short.

            There is no fairness, no honor, and definitely no shame (DLH) in this fight...
            DLH is going against the very thing he said he would do when he became a promoter. DLH does not have an ounce of integrity or dignity....I personally
            am ashamed he calls himself a Mexican....He should just drop all the nationality bull**** and take his bank account and shove it up his ass...

              flat out its a smarter move...being that this is oscars last fight he's gonna wanna win it...he has a better chance at beating pacquaio then any of the other fighters that were in the runnings...pacquaio is 4 1/2 inches shorter and has to move up 2 weight classes to fight oscar....and plus oscar is pulling the whole "i'm going to avenge the mexicans for this fight"...on top of that manny is p4p king...so of course he's gonna wanna go out like this

                Iam already tired of hearing about oscar vs manny. 3 more months of all this bull****, every little thing each one does who cares, this fight is a joke, oscar just keeps getting richer!

                    How is it absurd if Dlh is not fighting at a weight that is not good for him? Manny is in his prime, and he only has to gain a few lbs. Absurd my ass. Don't try to overrate Pac's limitations. As many negatives you see that Pac has, Dlh has just as many.

                      He'll jump on his bandwagon like he always does, and call Manny the greatest ever.
