De La Hoya Beats Pacquiao if Not Drained, Says Steward

[Dan...]

No doubt.

As someone said previously, the Oscar that beat Mayorga would have stopped Manny. Not hating, I love Pac, it is just how it is.

{{f you want to talk about fighters fighting other fighters in there primes rather then when they were old we could go on forever with this discussion.
1. Chavez vs. DLH
2. RJJ vs. J.Cal
3. Bhop vs. J.Cal
the list goes on and on.... Why even get into that.
The bottom line is, if the fighters sign that contract and agree to the terms there saying YES I AM ABLE TO FIGHT AT THAT WEIGHT REGARDLESS.}}


hear !! hear !!
its poor sportsmanship. actually you'd think with oscar's experience
he would know not to come in weight drained ...

Well guess what, that wasnt the Oscar that showed up last December so who really cares. In my eyes and the worlds eyes,
OSCAR DELAHOYA GOT A BEATDOWN BY A SMALLER FIGHTER.

Give Oscar all the excuses you want, OSCAR DID NOT NEED THIS FIGHT

Damn, its been almost 6 months and people still trying to give DLH excuses. Maybe the beatdown was intended to give DLH a lesson that he shouldnt be ripping off people with these USELESS matchups when God knew he wasnt even a legitimate contender anymore. Things happen for reason.

Then who's fault is it?!

Oscar got what he deserved by calling out a midget!

I agree with this Post. DLH didn't have to fight Pac. Oscar was the one that asked Manny to Jump two weight Divisions from his last fight.

Oscar could have asked any of the top Welters to make the Move to 154 for a big fight. No doubt, Cotto or Margarito etc would have jumped at the chance.

I many times I have to explain this ****. DLH WANST Weight drain. he lost too much mass early, hence why he look like a toothpick. He was 141 with a month to go. He didnt rehydratted to 160 or whatever, because he was already 141 with a month to go.

Weight drain, is when ypu are 152 pounds dehydrate yourself(lose all the water) to ake the weight and hydrate quckly back to the weight you were or close to it.

It was DLhs fault that he looked like a walking corpse!!!!1!!!!!!!!

rrriiiight!!!

oscar sucks

the oscar that beat myorga would still lose to pac man. myorga was and still way over rated he just a quick and easy payday.

[komatoz]

sad to hear that after all these months, they still need to make excuses for ODLH. but maybe this is just for his retirement.

[J.B.moneY.]

lets be clear....oscar did not call pac out.....the pac-oscar fight was the idea of larry merchant....and freddie roach pushed it, and then oscar excepted.....roach knew pac could beat a over the hill fighter, and that it would make manny look like a boxing god.....smart move by roach.

the oscar that even fought pbf probably wins a decision against pac that night.....but

that being said, pac did what he had to do to win, give credit where credit is do.

so whats new with that comment,i think we all know that already,i mean,he actually lost pounds instead of gaining,that says it all,it's not an excuse,it was there for us to see(his weight)...oscar was drained and old

[SHERPAKOVSKI]

Manny Steward always pick one guy in fight to win,and that guy got smashed
and then Manny Steward said " These is exactly what I expected ".
PACMAN smashed De La Hoya!
