    I saw an article yesterday where Oscar had 150 or more rounds of sparring sesssion.

    It's more like Pacquiao is that good.

        No, he wasn't.

        Watching the fight on TV both myself and the ppl I was watching with commented that we had never seen Oscar looking so uncomfortable in the ring before a fight.

        No way in hell was he over-confident. I'm not sure if he was over-trained or if making the weight ruined him, but I am 100% sure it was not over-confidence.

                    He was over-confident in the months leading up to the fight. I think you misinterpreted what I was trying to say. And why shouldn't he have been over-confident. He was fighting a featherweight. Oscar didn't think it would be this hard.

                            Yes, he was shot down by the "Pac-Attack" plan. JAT

                                    It was probably a combination of both and also the fact that Hoya is on the verge of being shot.

                                        That's what Oscar thought, that's why he was so damn happy during all the 24/7 episodes.
