    GTFO with that dramatized Fl0mo chit... Mayweather threw 1-2 punch combos with little activity for the whole fight.

    Pac fought every second of every round, threw 4 punch combos, had much more activity, truth is, there was not much difference between the two Oscars, Manny was just that good.

      Who gives a shyt if he was drained or not. Oscar's last good win was in 2002.

      He wasn't even a shell of himself in 2008 when Pac fought him.

        The weight issue doesn't bother me. What bothered me is Oscar's age. After Hopkins, he was far past it. (He shouldn't had been at 160 anyway, he was a natural 154lber). He did well against Floyd mainly due to stylistic difference even though he was old then too.

          More guys end up handicapped after fighting him.
          Bradley apparently broke every bone from his hip through his big toe in both fights and Margarito had his eye hanging out the socket by fights end..

          Oscar was so shot by then that 5-6 wouldn't have made any difference. Manny was an absolute beast at this point in his career.

            How was he a natural 154 lber?
            Weren't most of his big fights (like almost every one) at 140-147?

              That's his fault for boozing all the time and Robert Garcia's for letting him get away with it. How the hell can you move up and be drained?

                Say what you want about Oscar that night guys, and some of you are right, but it is beyond doubt how impressive Manny was that night, he was unreal. Yes Oscar wasn't his best we know that, but that damn sure doesn't mean Manny wasn't arguably at his most impressive (more or less)

                    And I agree that Prime Pacquiao beats any version of Oscar and Oscar got robbed against Floyd
