I'm not even campaigning for this. Larry Merchant I guess is more of a diehard Pac fan than me. Since he suggested this here's my take:
This fight will be meaningless for DLH's legacy if he wins, & if he lose, it will be an embarassment. But this will be nothing compare to the Cross Dressing Pix Embarassment. But what DLH can gain is more Money to the Bank. He co-Promotes Pac, Fighting him will cross over Pac to the Mainstream Audience just like what happened to PBF after he beat DLH. Therefore by passing the torch to Pac he'll make more Money in Pac's future fights. Plus the Fight will generate a lot of Money too & it will be a Guaranteed Action fight. It will sell easy.
For Pac to take this, he needs to Prove he can beat the best at 135 first. He needs to beat Diaz/Casa impressively By KO & he needs to make it look so easy. Beating the best 135 pounder will propel Pac to #1 P4P. Pac should be the one Calling DLH after this fight.
If Pac KOs Diaz, it will create a mystic on how Great his Power really is. Expert will Hype Pac as Little Super Fighter & question will be Raised like " Is Pac the Best P4P fighter ever????" One fighter going for Greatness & the other one Looking for One last Memorable fight.
DLH definitely will be the Favorite for the fight. He's the Bigger & Taller guy. But quickness & youth belong to Pac. Roach also said Pac's Punch has more Pop than DLH. DLH just have more weight behind his punch while Pac has more Velocity & Frequency. Pac has the Chance to beat DLH if he use his quickness & a little bit more Defensive. Pac also in not vulnerable to Left hook(DLH's best punch). MAB best punch also is a left hook & if you watch his fight with Pac he's missing a lot of those LH.
The Problem with this Fight will be the Credibility of the Fight because of DLH's Co-Promotional interest with Pac. A lot of fans will think that they could Fix the fight in any way they want it to look like. I still Prefer Pac vs PBF, it will sell as well because of contrasting personality. Good vs Badboy, #1 vs #2 P4P & Prime vs Prime. But If I am Pac, I definitely Take a DLH fight if offered coz the Money will be Good $15-20M easy.
