be 100% with me, how much of a chance does manny have...

[-MAKAVELLI-]

Two IFs that would be telling in this fight;


IF Manny hasn’t been dented and is still standing after 8 rounds


And


IF that first straight left that lands buckles Oscam, then he’s gonna be in serious trouble



But those are unlikely (?) to happen so DLH has this

I didn't think Pac will be where he is right now back when medgeon knock him out.

but he SHOCK me and a lot of others when

-He easily took the Alphabet from Ledwabba(Considered the best @122 atm)
-He completely ANNIHILATED pound 4 pound great Marco Antonio Barrera
-He kayoed Erik Morales ( Yeah he's not @122 but to date no one has done that
-He completely DISECTED and DESTROYED DD ( I thought it's gonna be a close fight)

with that i THINK DeLA HOYA will WIN this one. But don't dismiss another SHOCKER!!

[Foodie One]

He will shock all the doubters and haters.

[S.G.]

i think Pac's boxing skills are being criminally overlooked in the build up to this fight

and his speed will dictate the fight

i'm by no means 100% confident on a Pac win, but i got a feeling....

Yes, his quickness will be too much for ODLH. And the Pacman will finish him off like with Diaz. JAT.

Pac has good head movement (against odlh jab), i love it when he faints jab (creates opening) then shoots a lead left, but that doesnt seem to be as potent as the jab -straight left. i think Pac's awkward fighting style, in and out, side to side movement, speed and workrate might be the key, that is if he can take odlh punches. i heard so many left hook this, left hook that, not worried about that **** (but of course i hope it doesnt land) coz i think Pac and team is aware of that dreaded left hook and pac is a southpaw so its not as prone if youre orthodox, im worried on odlh's overall punching power.


dont want to give you percentage, coz i'm a pinoy lol, it wont make sense, but if you insist ......................... 60% lol

[raabd]

10%. 15% at best.

Okay, time for me to interject some logic into this discussion.

Excluding the possibilities that the fight is fixed (which I wouldn't doubt) Pacman has anywhere from 0-5% chance of winning this fight. Here is why.

#1 - Reach : 67" to 73"

Pacman has made a career out of being the bigger stronger faster man, even against people without a significant reach advantage over him, he has displayed a tendency to lunge uncontrollably to close range.

Against Marquez he payed for this. He lunged in off balance and got caught with some monstrous punches.

Oscar will keep him at the end of his jab and drop the left hook as Manny lunges in with left hands.

#2 - Power

Pacman has been hurt, and dropped by fighters with significantly less power than Oscar. Oscar has traded blows with Felix Trinidad, Ike Quartey, etc...

To put it simply. Manny cannot take the kind of power that Oscar brings to the table, while Oscar can take the kind of power than Manny is going to bring.

#3 - Defense

Pacman is exciting for the same reason he has close to a 0% chance of winning this fight. His defense is VERY leaky. He is there to be hit if you are willing to weather the storm. Unfortunately for Manny, the storm will be several miles off the coast.
