How come DLH was shot/weight drained when he faced pac?

[Ryannn]

when people said pac was supposed to get his ass handed to him? like he has no chance? then after wards dlh was shot/weight drained? we all knew weight was gonna be an issue but pac was still the heavy underdog?

i mean the weight did play its part but not like what people here are saying, like dlh was a zombie or some **** like that.

pac showed he is a GREAT figher. he just destroyed the lineal junior welter champ in two rounds for god's sake.

Nobody knew how badly the weight would affect DLH. Even Roach said himself he knew they had messed up the dehydration/rehydration and the fact Oscar weighed less than Manny on the night shows you what a poor condition he was in.

People only see the big versus smaller fighter but sometimes a fight could be won before you get in the ring when you have a great trainer like freddie Roach, Oscar fight Paq at 147 was a career-suicide which him and his team couldnt see expect for Roach.

but won't coming up in weight affect a fighter in a bad way also? a lot of people are saying dlh was weight drained but pac just does'nt belong at welterweight. did you see how much bigger dlh looked againts pac?

and i don't really buy this dlh is zombie. i look at the forbes and floyd fights. it was the same DLH. not prime, but still good.

Because he relied too much on medical and artificial support.

1. His diet was not normal (ostrich meat?).
2. Too much pain killers and artificial vitamins.
3. Electrical acupuncture.
4. Had an IV dextrose hours before the fight.

He and his Team tried too hard, because they had too much money and it was against Nature.

Coming down in weight will affect a fighter alot more than coming up. Also, Pacquiao weighs what he weighed against DLH for pretty much every fight. DLH had not made that weight for 7 years or something and actually weighed less than Manny on the night. He was a zombie. You can't compare the DLH that fought Mayweather to the one against Manny, as he was younger, about 20lbs heavier and better conditioned.

so youre saying pac's win againts dlh is not great even though he was the heavy underdog? because of these factors? why can't the factor be what really matters? that pac is a better fighter than dlh period.

[MaYaN_SuN]

lol Roach gambled and he won...I bet to this day he's counting those blessings. Even if he's not, when he's by himself he knows damn well he dodged a bullet.

how about ricky? was ricky better conditioned when he faced floyd? is that why pac beat him in two rounds, where dlh beat him in nine?

Apparently, Ricky is now "damaged goods" because of Floyd.

You should get used to it by now. Pac can't even win fantasy fights against anyone.
