What If JMM Had Got The Decision Against Pac In 2008?

[Deep Blue 1997]

I do think fighting diaz was a way to have a breather from marquez.

I think another what if question should be "what is DLH never handed over the fight to pac?" Oscar stated he wanted cotto n margs which clearly was not the case due to the fights he ended up taken with much smaller fighters instead.

sure pac would still be successful, as he was already successful before moving up. but he would not have faced the names without oscar thats for sure!

dun think he wouldn't be playin around the WW division. he would have been forced to take more legitimate fights around the lightweight division or we would have already seen a third fight with marquez.

but the only reason why the fight was handed over to Pac was because of DLH's fear of Margarito (at the time). Cotto beating Margarito would have led to : Cotto vs. Oscar De La Hoya

and Cotto would have been in the position Pacquiao is now, and we would be talking about how Mayweather is ducking Cotto.


but i agree. Manny would have ruled the lightweight division along with Marquez, leading a trilogy or even a fourth fight between the two!



oh well... coulda, shoulda, woulda

How different do you things would be now? Would of JMM KO'd Diaz and got the Oscar fight @ 147lb? Would of Manny & JMM had a trilogy? Would Manny have just stayed at 135lb and fight the likes of Soto, Katisids, Cas?

How do you think things would of planned out?

idk but remember hearing that if cotto would have beaten plasterito, he would have fought oscar de la hoya and maybe blown up 2 a huge star. he would have abused that stick figure version of de la hoya weighin 147. there would have been more calls for floyd 2 come back and fight cotto. remember floyd retired after he ko the ricky hatton, there was a lot of people who wanted 2 see cotto vs mayweather. miguel had just beaten shane mosley at that time. the better version of shane mosley when compared 2 the 1 floyd fought .
