      At 154 Pounds? A weight Oscar was healthy and strong at?
      Still in denial ? What a way to live

        its like he said himself when he fights he is "supposed" to win.
        When PAC fights its always "if he wins"

        Oscar looked nothing like normal self against Pac. But that's how PAC's camp likes them

            Castillo, Corrales and Gatti are mediocre fighters and will never be in the HOF. You can bank on that. JMM is after the Oscar fight....like I said....Floyd did not battle with any HOF UNTIL he fought Oscar. JMM is his second HOF.

                Doesn't change the fact that DLH was still 5+years past his prime and he SD'ed the old man.

                  But in a BOXREC manner...well ok, he won both fights with JLC.
                  If you're gonna' go that route, you have to accept that Pac is 1 and 1 w/JMM.

                      Pac was a 3-1 heavy underdog in that fight. Preparing for the fight IS part of the fight. Oscar did not prepare well.

                      I personally believe that Pac has passed Floyd's greatness even from before because of his fights with Barrera, Morales and JMM. Floyd hasn't fought a HOF until he fought Oscar. But beating Oscar just sealed it for me. It was the time when critics started comparing him with Henry Armstrong. 3 weight division fights in just about a year is a great accomplishment.
                      oh, when EM, MAB were shot and after JMM beat his ass twice? of course you would
