Oscar/Manny: How is 147 a disadvantage for Manny?

[VERDUGO]

Pac asked for this fight, his fans asked for this fight and now they got to shut up and stop making excues for Pac. He got what he wanted and now his country is scared for his life, philipine boxing journalist should have let this fight go when Oscar laughed at the idea of fighting Pac, but Pac and his fans keep pressing Delahoya.

That was before Cotto didn't lose to Margarito......remember?
He said many times that he'd fight the winner of Cotto/Margarito coz he thought Cotto would beat Margarito like most of the fans predicted.
But when Marg came out the winner,he pussied out and started calling out Pacquiao .

can't Manny just weigh in around 143?...just eat a small meal and drink tons of water prior to weigh in n he should be good...

I'd like for DLH to come in at 160 or heavier on Dec. 6.

That would be a ****** move on his part. 145 lbs. or so in training camp and trying to maintain that until the weigh-in and then coming in 20 lbs. or more on fight night. Cool.

I won't make excuses for the Pacman. Confidence is high that he will pull out a victory for his countrymen. JAT

Slower and he'll have worse STAMINA issues after say... round 4 this time?

[MANGLER]

How can anyone not see that DLH is way bigger than Pac?

Blame Freddie Roach...he's the 1 that wanted the fight for Manny, I sure as hell didn't... I wanted him to dominate lightweight.

As I said in another thread, just because he comes in at 147 on fight night doesn't mean he belongs there in today's world of boxing, it's like saying DLH is effective at middleweight because he goes into fights at 160.

1) heavyweight over heavyweight
2) same
3) yawn the same
4) one weight class, 5 lbs above his last fight against a man who fought the majority of career at 130 or 135
5) against a man who fought most of his career at 130/135
6) dude why are stuck on heavyweights
7) bernard is no little dude LOL this is comedy
8) quintana has fought at 147 his entire career

dude honestly if you dont get it fine but

Manny started his career at 106, Oscar at 130 that right there is a 24lb starting gate advantage.

the bulk of Oscars career has been at 140 and above.....MANNY hasnt even fought above 140 yet

as mentioned, Oscar will weigh around 160-165 while Manny will probably be no more than 150 which is a weight advantage

Oscar is taller has a bigger frame and is more natural at this weight than Manny who again has never fought there

Perfect!!!!!!!!!!! End of Thread!!!!!!!!
