Oscar De La Hoya Says "Pacquiao Doesn't Hit Hard"

[dondi330]

So if Oscar Got beat that bad with out Pac hitting him hard....he should be thanking Pac for not hitting him hard and killing him. Oscar is full of it.

Shut up Oscar

Oscar shut your damn mouth. You're a ***** with no heart. You say Pacquiao can't hit hard and maybe he can't. But 147 is too big for a guy who started at 106 my man. He still beat your ass and made you look like the clown you really are. You a fan, a phony, a fake, a *****, a stan and I'll whip yo ass. He took your heart or what you had left of it. Hopkins took it originally. Pick on someone your own damn size and then say that their punches don't hurt. Oh wait, you did and like I said Hopkins beat your ass.

I don't think it's that Pacman can't hit hard. Some fighters absorb more punishment than others without going down. I may be wrong but I think the only time dlh has been down is from a body shot. Take the great Sugar Ray Robinson....he had devastating one punch knock out power,.......yet he couldn't put Jake LaMotta down. He beat LaMotta to a pulp and was pounding him so hard that the referee was forced to step in and stop it....but at the stoppage, LaMotta wasn't even close to going down. LaMotta had a great chin. So does DeLahoya.

Obviously, Pacquiao fought more simiarly with Diaz as he did with Dela Hoya than he did when he fought Previous fighters. Pacquiao showed the most improved form of his boxing ability beginning with Diaz. Check the improved balance, not stumbling all over the place.. He use to put everything behind his punches and punch through his opponent but againts diaz and DLH he was on his toes, throwing double lefts like jabs with DLH... Pac was on his way to knocking oscar out that fight as he was starting to load up more and more when oscar was againts the ropes, specially.

It's hard to knock someone out who isn't fighting back. See Jermain Taylor vs. William Joppy and Pacquiao-Barrera II. When someone is just bracing for impact, it's tough to get them out of there.

If Mosley, Vargas, Trinidad, Mayorga, etc. etc couldn't knock him out, Pac is at least one up on all of them by, on the record, knocking oscar out. Worse and more embarrassing than getting knocked out is QUITTING!!! OSCAR IS GIVING A REASON FOR QUITTING SAYING PACQUIAO COULDN'T KNOCK HIM OUT SO HE QUIT INSTEAD... BULL****!! IF THE FIGHT WENT ANY LONGER PAC WOULDA KNOCKED HIM OUT!!!!

Its the punches you don't see that knock you out... Obviously when you are expecting everything, you see everything.

oscar's been in with much bigger punchers so i am not surprised he said manny didnt hit particularly hard . . . manny was also moving a lot so i understand him not getting full leverage, but i dont think manny would be/is a devastating puncher at 147.

I think so too....

Hoya is a masochist.
