      cause pac is a fantastic fighter, and is no smaller than most opponents in comparison to paul williams, and thats not a bad thing. its not like manny cant reach oscars face. he probably hits just as hard as oscar at that weight, and is much faster than oscar.

      both fighters agreed to the terms of this fight, the weight and everything. if they arent making excuses, why should we?

        I don't like the fight, infact I hate it.

        But if people like Hopkins & RJ can get away with it, why can't Oscar???

        I would give Oscar his props, its the P4P king atleast. He's also a part time fighter & nowhere near his prime.

          You said that, "I don't like the fight, infact I hate it". But you give Joto props anyways, because others were given their credit. Sounds more like sourgraping to me.

            I don't like the fight because I would of preferred Pac to fight Marquez for a 3rd, DLH vs Margarito. This fight is all about $$$$$, but hey they both have to get paid, especially Pac, since he's the one that asked for it. How hard is that to understand??

              why shouldnt either fighter get their props? manny pacquiao should get his props for beating de la Hoya and vise versa. either way, whoever wins, they beat a very formidable opponent. oscar can still give any welterweight a hell of a fight, if not beat everyone from 147-154. as for pacquaio, hes been so dominant at the featherweight and his last fight at lightweight, its not hard to see that hes a natural 140lb fighter..much like hatton.. nobody critisized mayweather for fighting hatton and nobody discredited him after defeating hatton. so why is it all of a sudden a big crime for a smaller fighter to move up in weight to fight a natural 147 lb fighter? both men agreed on weight, gloves, etc. so lets not make excuses about size and weight anymore, because they both must weigh in at 147.

                I AGREE, BUT WHY FIGHT LIGHTER FIGHTERS WHEN YOU HAVE CHALLENGERS AT YOUR OWN WEIGHT? NO DISRESPECT TO PAC. BUT delahoto ONLY SEEKS FIGHTS WHERE HE HAS AN ADVANTAGE!!!!

                  in addition imho if both pac & oscar gives us a good to great fight, with fireworks...

                  they should be given credit to give some spark to boxing in reagards to the mainstream...

                      dlh gets no props... if he gets his ass kicked by a 130 lber he should retire... if he lets a 130 lber no matter how great go 12 rounds he's an embarassment. if he KTFO pac... he was supposed to because he outweight pac by 20 lbs on fight night... this is a no brainer guys.

                      the only credit dlh gets is the money credited to his bank account
