Should Of De La Hoya Pulled Out Against Pacquiao?

[gibo]

he did pull out!!!! He quit against a smaller fighter, at a weight he picked, and got his *ss beat on PPV seen all over the world!!!! He did the most paid pull out in boxing history!!!!!!

[Steak]

It had nothing to do with the weight drain, DLH was already past his best and on his way to shot. You saw it in the Forbes fight, how even a light hitting Forbes was able to bust up DLH's face.

which is why I was one of the few people that predicted a Pacquiao win. also no one pays attention when Pacquiao had already been weighing 147lbs in 130lb fights, so I knew hed have no trouble moving up.

[Plaster...Sad.]

He did pull out... a little to late 8th round but he pulled out.

No mas from the stool.

Why?

De La Hoya's ego wouldn't have allowed him to anyways.

He felt in his heart that no matter what condition he was in, that this was an easy payday against a lightweight. And throughout 24/7, he boasted about being in the best shape of his life, which he clearly wasn't.

To salvage whatever dignity he had left, he claimed Pac still couldn't really hurt him. But when Pac was accused of using PEDs, he changed his story and said Pac hit just as hard as Mosley and Vargas, two noted steroid users.

lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oscar had a great career. I just try to not put too much emphasis on his last few years.

I would've not made weight , bring on the penalty still getting paid.

Agreed. SO what happened? Did he take off too much weight too soon and then put it back on and have to lose it again last minute?

He did pull out... a little to late 8th round but he pulled out.

No mas from the stool.

If he was going to quit, he should have quit like he did against Hopkins, before he got seriously pummelled.

Watching the 24/7 again, and Oscar looks so thin & weak. Like 3 weeks before the fight he had already made the weight limt, 147. He had tottaly messed the weight up and should never of been fighting there.

Do you think he should of pulled out of the fight? With a excuse, and the say lets do it ar 154 instead or leave, and go after a title at 154lb?

I just really do feel he had no right being in the ring that night, he his body was complete weak mess.

Cotto, hatton and cheato fought pac in their weight classes, pac did the same annihilation!
DLH thought he has a good chance coz he got a competitive fight with floyd.
little did he knows that Pac was a much greater fighter!!
