    apparently he's advising oscar on how to beat up on smaller fighters and get a ton of credibility for it. . . .

      Not true the first guy to move up from welter weight to fight B-Hop was Felix Trinidad how can B-HOP go on and say that Oscar is the only guy to do it???? I got pac-man in the 10th.

        Peep game...

        This is what i've been saying: Compare DLH and Pacman's last fight.

        Diaz and Forbes right? Now, compare what Pacquiao did to Diaz and contrast what Oscar did to Forbes.

        Obviously they were both "tune up" fights. I think Diaz and Forbes are equal as far as getting matched up with Pacquiao and De La Hoya.

        DLH couldn't put Forbes away; carried him to the 12th, and won by UD. Plus, Fobres marked up Oscar. Pacquiao mopped up Diaz. And crushed his ass in the 9th. This is a fact.

        Oscar lost all his matches with elite boxers: Mosely twice, Hopkins and Mayweather....and "Tito" if you wanna go back that far...or think he's an elite fighter. I believe that Pacquiao is reaching the elite status if not legendary status.

        I know who the fcuk De La Hoya is. He's a great fighter. However, Pacquiao's my hero. Pacman's not just gonna walk all over this guy. It'll be tough. I know Pacquiao's gonna win...i just don't know how.

        FYI: Pacquiao walks around in the 150's....so it's not like the weight change is extreme.

        Of course Hopkins is gonna back De La Hoya, he's his business partner. Duh! So Hopkin's statements are totally biased. I understand what he's saying about experience. But i think Pacquiao is aquiring enough experience to fight competitively with DLH.

            I'm not rooting for either, I admire them both, I just dont like the idea of Oscar going back to welterweight, I think we may well see a shockingly faded Oscar.

            If the fight was at 154, no question I'd be expecting an Oscar victory, was I the only one impressed with his performance against Forbes? I think those extra 7 pounds may be his undoing.

              "He's bigger"... yeah, good reason. Boxing has always been about size, hasn't it.

                forbes is a very good defensive fight and diaz is a walking punching bag... definitely dlh would've had more trouble than pac did

                  Hopkins said something like "De La Hoya is fighting for pride and glory", that's when I stopped taking him seriously. We all know this is about money, pride and Glory would have been a fight with Margarito.

                    do you watch boxing? i don't know anyone (in their right mind) who actually believed DLH had a chance against PBF........

                    stevie forbes has NEVER been KO'ed in his career, and only knocked down i think once.....he and PBF are defensive minded fighters, so looking good against them, and let alone kncoking them out, is a tough task for anyone. good luck....

                    that being said, manny is waaayyy too small, and has no defense. he's offense first, so once oscar hits him flush a couple times, its lights out. its crazy to compare PBF or steve forbes to the style manny brings to the ring.

                    he said that, partly out of emotion, cuz calzaghe said he wouldn't fight hops again. roy said he'd do it if the money was right......it was moreso wishful thinking on hops part.....this fight is a no-brainer.
