Just want to clear this up for so i don't have to read anymore ****** ****.
Pac did no "MAKE" Oscar do anything. Pac did not make Oscar come down and fight him at 147.
As if any fighter could make the golden boy do anything. When you fight Oscar you fight by his rules....period. Oscar was the cash cow and the most powerful fighter (from a negotaiation standpoint) in boxing.....with his own "real" and "functioning" promotions company.....that means he makes the rules. Floyd fought by his rules the first time around and had to again if he wanted a second go.
He thought it was only fair to come down to 147 because every1 thought Pac was "small." However, there is no way in hell we can say Pac used his position to drain Oscar.
Just wanted to clear that up.
So Oscar being drained by team Pac not an excuse he can use or the fans can use.....he did it to himself....it was not Pac or Roachs doing.
Having said all this it still does not change the fact that ODLH was indeed emaciated during that fight. So to me it's not an impressive win at all for Pac. As Pac fans you shouldn't be taking credit for that win and saying oh..."Floyd barely beat Oscar and Pac got a TKO" .....it's laughable.......why???
Firstly ODLH was lucky to have taken 4 rds from Floyd and their fight was at 154 (Floyd having not bothered coming up stayed at welter). Oscar chose all the stipulations and whilst not at his best was still very good at that weight. Against Pac he came in at 145...he couldn't even rehydrate with a saline drip and wasn't even a walking punching bag.....more like a stationary one....the man looked like air dried beef.
Pac fans this is the truth, his win against Oscar is not impressive when you look at other wins on his resume, and it doesn't measure up to the Oscar Floyd fought at all. To compare both fights is revisionist history at it's finest and really is quite laughable. to the floyd fans.......Manny did not "drain" Oscar.....Oscar screwed hiself over.
THAT IS ALL.
