    Chico did not fight like a weight drained guy. He fought like a guy who was way slower than a fast fighter.
    1. i have seen it. he was clearly drained.

    2. have you seen the pre-fight comments from hoya and dawson? they were good to go!

    3. his entire body was shutting down. his head was clear and he was getting dropped with single punches from a non-puncher. why would a guy with a clear head keep getting dropped? because he has no energy in his body. look at some of the knockdowns they are hilarious. he's flailing around in slow motion.

    4. you love floyd!

      oscar had nothing to gain.

      After fighting at junior middleweight and above since 2001, and struggling to make 150-pounds for the May fight with Steve Forbes, there was a lot of doubt that Oscar De La Hoya would make the welterweight limit of 147 without a serious struggle. De La Hoya, who faces Manny Pacquiao at the welterweight limit on December 6 in Las Vegas, claims to already weigh 145-pounds. Pacquiao, who is moving up by two weight divisions from the lightweight limit of 135-pounds, is said to currently weigh around 151-pounds - six pounds more than De La Hoya.


      here's an article a month before the fight. what was he supposed to gain? he had already taken the weight off. it was a ****** strategy because he didn't use his size at all but to pretend like he drained himself down from a high weight is not true. he acclimated his body to 145 a month before the fight took place.

      whenever you put a ton of weight on overnight that means you drained yourself badly. look at chavez jr, canelo, corrales etc...
