    It was a cash out fight
    He was drained
    Sparring partners was beating him up
    Hennessy was on sale at the liquor store
    Prices on a kilo dropped

    Just say it one time. Manny beat the brakes off Oscar.
    After you say it one time it gets easier to cope with.
    What more do you need DLH to say ?

    Whatever man maybe if he wasn't so dehydrated from all the alcohol he wouldn't have to depend on you to make up so many excuses for him

    Just say Manny beat the brakes off Oscar

    Roadblock the same guy that defends Floyd pulling a lightweight up two divisions in one fight

    But youre an idiot that don't understand that gaining only 2lb from a weigh in for a guy that gains 20 is drained badly, all you Manny fools that say Manny was a naturally smaller guy and Oscar was a naturally bigger guy seem to be very confused that on fight night Manny weighed more than Oscar making Manny the bigger boxer, how can that be, Draining !

    People forget Manny was the underdog in that fight. He was the naturally smaller fighter.

    For years Floyd made a career of weight-draining his opponents, also insisting on catchweights, and having every possible advantage negotiated in his favor...ring size, gloves, judges, refs, Vegas only venues, etc. Only fighter I know of who got a TUE exception two weeks after being caught with an illegal IV.

    Yep, Floyd "retired" rather than face the rematch, he announced his comeback a week after the year expired. I've watched the DLH/Floyd fight several times, I scored it 115-113 for Oscar each time. It was a split decision and Oscar should have won. One of Floyd's many gifts.
    I agree he got a gift on the decision and ducked the rematch.

    Floyd boys saw the Manny feel good thread, and they know Oscar called the shots in their fight, but want to make excuses for him anyways

    I don't understand why everybody is so negative about this fight and what Manny achieved on that night. I know in the last few years Oscar has given a lot of interviews about his struggles and substance abuse that kind of completely change how that fight could be seen, but I remember at the time when the fight was announced I thought the weight jump was waaaay too much for Pacman and that he could not compete with Oscar at that weight. Of course, once the fight started I had to immediately change my mind.

    You have to remember this was not too far away from Oscar's fight with Floyd Mayweather which was incredibly close and which, by the way I thought that Oscar won even though he was a long way from his prime. So going into the fight, I expected Oscar to show up in good condition and destroy Manny.

    My point is ODH got that score from his judge.

    What did I say was biased? A nickname? The fact Fishnets was 154 against Floyd and 147 against Manny? These are facts.

    You honestly didn’t think he looked drained at 147 in that fight?

    Come on.
    Lets keep it a buck here if Oscar was in your face you wouldn't call him Fishnets

    So who is Oscar's judge

    Oscar being 154 for one fight and 147 for another had nothing to do with how he got the brakes beat off him

    He was 100% ready before he was getting the brakes beat off him

    People around the world saw that fight for what it was, a split decision that give or take a point/round or 2 it could have gone either way.

    There was a rematch clause out of Oscar mouth he said Floyd welched on it by retiring for a year and a day.

    I think you need to read your own posts and perhaps re-evaluate who is a hater and who isn't (given that you are calling Oscar Fishnets) and who is extremely biased with an axe to grind.

    You are saying only haters think that Oscar won the fight against Floyd even though a few people on this forum have clearly expressed their honest opinion about Oscar winning that fight. It was a split decision with scores that were very, very close. Objectively looking at that situation when the scores are that close in boxing, fans and commentators are evenly divided as to who won the fight and there is no one universal truth or answer that everyone will accept.

    You claim to be telling the truth but all that is coming out of your posts that is clear to see is bias and hate.
