    1. nobody can impose this on him, esp not a guy that had nowhere near his pull yet.
    2. Pac was heavier by 1.5lbs, if there was a clause there's 0 chance DLH was gonna be under by 1.5lbs+.
    3. do you think for a second DLH would not have leaked this after the very humiliating career ender against a midget he was widely favored against? The crossdressing guy that makes announces an announcement that he's still retired?
    Who cares if there was a rehydration clause with Oscar , it dont change the result , dont change the fact Oscar was dead on his feet , its the worst blunder in a big fight Ive ever seen , like I said you dont really know if you can make a weight until you must , they fcked up big time in thinking he could make it .

    Boxing is still old school in many areas , the police gazette of the late 1800s stated that to be fair fight the combatants should be within the limits of an oz for a chicken , a pound for a dog and stone for a man , many trainers today still think from roots of that old theory , its just been passed down through the age of fighting .

    The technical side of weight is only really coming to light in boxing , and Manny had a lot to do with that , as a consequence you will see more CW fights and more offers of CWs than ever before , today they are learning how important weight is at the very top level , especially in trying to be too light !

      This is beyond ridiculous. But then again, you're the guy that thought a decade = 11 years, right?!

      147 isn't, never was and will never be, a catchweight as long as WW = 147lbs.

        Oscar had just fought at 150, Pac at 135. Oscar came in a big favorite. If this was so obvious, why did smart guys like Schaefer, Nacho, Dundee go along with it? What was your prediction?

          It is to a bigger or smaller weight class opponent , if THE CONTRACT makes it a condition of the fight ,,, you dont know what the fck your talking about !

              No point trying to reason with Fl()m()s.

              Decade = 11 years
              147 = Catchweight

                yes. it was their choice, and they were highly favored for it..
                nobody expected pac was going to dominate pac and cotto like he did.

                  You mean when he looked like sheeet against Forbes , even he would have stopped Oscar on that night with Oscar weighin in at 145 ,

                  He was favourite because everybody assumed he would make the weight healthy and in that they envisioned Oscar of old , he didnt make it healthy and we all seen the waif that turned up , jeeesus buddy , he needed IV fluids to gain 2 lbs do have any idea of what that means sheeesh .

                  My prediction was the same as Freddies when he heard Oscar needed IV fluids , Oscar was deadman walking , the hardest thing to sink into your brain is that being drained is a result one sees after the fact , all the evidence points to Oscar being totally weight drained in that fight !

                    Because nobody thought the weight was going to cruel them as it did , notice Pacs performances WITHOUT lowering CWs have never come close !!
