Why I think the fight was thrown by Oscar

[Alibata]

This makes little since. Here are there the two scenarios.

A) Oscar throws the fight and based on his performance will never likely fight again just so he can make some good money promoting a single upcoming fight.

B) Oscar wins impressively where he can continue to to be involved in big PPV events as the promoter AND fighter.

Even if a fight between Pacman-Hatton or Mayweather would be bigger than any potential fight DLH could get himself, chances are he's still going to make money on a smaller draw if he's the fighter as well as the promoter.

What about this scenario, since were in the mood to conjure up some. Oscar fights Manny winning close split decision. Manny looks good enought to fight Hatton, Oscar has the option to fight Hatton and beat him and leave him for Manny. Manny beats Hatton and fights Mayweather... Why lose every single round till your ears are bleeding and your eyes are closing.. Think about it bro. All these conspiracies sound ****** as hell...

Is Everyone Ready To Wake Up Now?

I'm so tired of being ****ed around by ****ty promoters and overhype fighters who rely on the behind the scene powers to set up their wins.

Boxing has always been my #1 sport. I love the game. But enough is enough. It's time for people to let these ****ing promoters and glam fighters that we will no longer let them drain us for every cent only to produce something that has already been scripted weeks before the fight takes place.

I said this was going to happen and it went just the way I was told. **** Oscar. **** Pacquiao. **** Golden Boy and Top Rank. They are dead set on milking us for every cent before they run this great sport into the ground.

We fans are the bloodline of the sport --- we are not ******. We can make them do things right. We are in control more than you think. Do not support their fights. Don't buy their PPV bull**** and most of all question bizarre fights that are signed. There is so much going on behind the scenes -- you guys have no idea.

Wake up fight fans. Stand up for yourselves.

Maybe De La Hoya did throw the fight... He didn't do a good enough job of convincing us with the Hopkins liver shot so I guess he wanted to make it hella obvious by losing every round and getting his eye busted up and internal ear bleeding. I guess it is more obvious now so that Mexicans... I do suspect it is Mexicans drumming these theories (forgive me if I am wrong), can thoroughly disrespect a proud flag bearer like De La Hoya.. I guess De La Hoya was tired of representing and decided to embarrass Mexicans by quitting on his stool...De La Hoya is a warrior, a great fighter. God Bless De La Hoya... Give props to Manny he deserves it... Hopefully DLH is alright.

1. DLH can make more money promoting a Mayweather - Pacquiao fight than a Hatton - DLH fight.
2. Millie De La Hoya showed no emotion the entire fight, she looked like she knew how it was gonna end.
3. He'll still probably fight Hatton anyways.
4. I dont think hes shot, he looked good against Mayweather and Forbes and he hasnt taken much punishment in his career.

So people keep asking "why would he throw the fight?" Because theres more money to be made in a Pacquiao - DLH fight than the alternative.

Im a huge Paquiao fan and hate DLH, but this was a thrown fight.

No question about it. Anyone who has ever watched a fight before should be able to see that Oscar didnt even attempt to block, or throw or move or anything. Never in his career has that happened to him. He can pick off punches from Mayweather, but all the sudden Pac is impossible to see? Moralles dominated Pac with a jab, and Oscar never even tried to throw it. He never looked like he was going to try to win the fight. He will go on and promote Pac vs Hatton or some other bull**** and make a ton more money after making Pac a new star. **** you Oscar. This **** kills boxing...

Its called improvement... Yall should believe in it sometime.

[VERDUGO]

yeah right.
He' gonna gonna let the man who is known for whoopin Mexicans as$(mexican Assasin), comin up from the featherweight division kick his butt. lol

[Palma]

My take is the speed of Manny and the fact that he had to drop all that weight played a big role in Oscar's poor performance tonight. I was very surprised that Oscar's weight had not increased the day of the fight.

[Big_L]

i doubt oscar would agree to take a dive against a bob arum fighter.

If I remember correctly, part of the settlement agreement between Top R*nk and GBP, was that Golden Boy only has rights to PAC's fights if he's fighting another GBP fighter. Last time I checked, Floyd is his own promoter.

So the negotiations would be between Floyd and Top Rank. Now, a Hatton fight would be different since he's a GBP fighter.
