Re-watching Pacquiao vs DLH

[Khalid X]

Pacquiao ain't no welterweight man. All the guys he fought also rehydrated in the 140's.

But one thing jumps out of that strip.

I'm starting to think Clottey and Cotto both had rehydration clauses because HBO leaves out the fight night weights in their graphics.

I always thought Cotto looked to damn small in that fight. I can't believe they made him do that.

smfh.. Pac is a ruthless prick.

I just noticed you turned 2 years old INSECT.

Happy Birthday

Actually thats the fight (Margarito) Manny wanted after DLH, but Arum said there is no way in hell they would make that fight.

There was a few threads in which 99% of the posters thought Tony would slaughter Manny and there would be no way in which Manny could win that fight.

You obviously didn't want the full broadcast of the De La Hoya fight. Stop listening to Freddie Roach, especially on 24/7 he lies too much. Kthx.

Tony was a fraud then, but at the same time no one knew he had plaster. Now that Richardson revealed that he had plaster, and Mosley demolished him that's when they wanted the fight. However he was suspended so they had to wait a while. Don't be fooled because without video proof, I can't take you word. Hold on let me post my proof since I would be a hypocrite not to post mine, give me 20 minutes to upload.

What are you talking about?

What are you talking about?

I have the actual Pacquiao interview where he said if he was to win he would move down to 140 pounds and fight there. He wanted none of Tony.

When Cotto fights you never see the unofficial weights.

Hopefully this is the year that Fudge Packy stops cherrypicking comeforward sluggers and starts to fight guys that can box.

Then I'll laugh when he's off balance every two seconds.

[Schmerzen]

And, you agree with Roach?

Going into that fight you thought Pacquiao was suppose to win that fight? And, I guess team Pac was going into a fight to lose...What elite fighter goes to a fight to lose? Of course going into it they would think that. However, what did you think about it going in?

If that is the case then why the hell was everybody bashing Oscar for cherry picking a LW instead of fighting a true threat in Margarito?

Weird

oscar was fighting for 8 years at jmw, he even moved up to 160 to fight sturm.
its like pac fighting 5more years at welter, and then he suddenly moves down to 140 again without even having a tune-up fight first.
i knew oscar would be weight drained, pac cant stop clottey, no way he stops a healthy version of oscar.
never.
everyone would have fought oscar, i said this before, i am definitely not blaming pac for fighting him .
but he gets too much credit for that fight, this whole little guy nonsense doesnt work with me.
oscar couldnt handle 147 anymore, pac can, and he proved this more than once.

powwwwwwwwwwwwww

He was a LW...

Tony wanted no part of him cuz' Tony wasn't cherry picking a LW. Tony was chasing Oscar, who wanted no part of him.

Oscar said he wanted the winner of Cotto-Margarito. Once Marg won and(no not a fraud) Oscar chose to cherry pick a LW. That is when Marg started bashing Oscar and rightfully so.

Since nobody gave Pac a chance to win he was going to move back down cuz' he wasn't a WW. He was a LW. And, he was going to go down 135. Oscar was suppose to beat Pac and then fight Hatton still with the plan of avoiding Margarito.l

The Pac-Oscar fight happened on Dec 6, 2008. By that time Margarito-Mosley was signed to fight on January of 09(a month later, once again Oscar sending Shane to do his dirty work).

So Pac wins, and yes Pac said a couple weeks after beating Oscar that he would like to fight Margarito. Everybody called him crazy and rightfully so cuz' at the time was a huge WW and the best WW while Pac was still a LW.

Then the whole wraps scandal happened and Marg got suspended and the Pac-Hatton fight happened.

You're making it seem like Pac ducked or was avoiding Marg. When that was never the case at all. Oscar avoided Pac after the Cotto win not Pac.

Oscar did have a tune up fight. Against Forbes, at 150. A weight he made easy (let him tell it).

He probaly figured three more pounds was nothing, not to mention fair. I here you though, can't really blame Pac for taking the fight. At the sametime, no one (except Die hard Pac fans) thought Pac would win. So he does deserve a fair amount of credit imo.
