    With plaster in his hands of course.

      Exactly!

      Pacquiao went from high-profile within hardcore fans at lower weight classes to mainstream superstar by knocking out Oscar, Hatton, Cotto, and shutting out Clottey...and on Saturday will be taking on Margarito...nobody would've seen this coming prior to the De la Hoya fight. NOBODY.

        Most who picked Hoya expected a healthy Oscar in that ring. The majority now agree Oscar was a shell of himself based on his appearance and performance.

        But that was Oscar's fault for believing he could still make weight in a division he hadn't fought in for years.

          there was an interview of roach on his conversation w/ manny right after the delahoya fight. roach asked manny who he wants to fight next, manny said he wants margarito , roach said he might be too big for you, but pac said he can beat him... words to that effect.
