    Look at how dead Oscar looked during that fight, fought like he didn't have a heart beat. Weight drain anyone?

    Team Pac knew what they were doing. They were very smart with that pick.
    Perhaps you weren't following the sport then but it was widely considered a miss-match in DLH's favor and he got TONS of heat for it. Yes Roach knew more than than they let on but lets not play, that Pac was as perfect has he could get. DLH was just worse than even they expected.

    I would still argue that it was his best win in terms of his legacy. He might have been established in the boxing world at that time, but that was the money win for him. That was the win that was passing on the torch so to speak.

    It brought Pacquiao to new heights he hasn't seen before. Brought him from a champion to a superstar and Bob Arums top fighter.

    It did the same thing for Pacquiao as it did for Mayweather really. Beating Oscar was the turning point for both of them.
    Barrerra, Morales, Cotto are easily better wins. DLH is on par with Hatton, Ledwaba and JMM II.

      On paper Pacquiao was only a 2 - 1 underdog. Sounds like Vegas thought he had a pretty good chance at pulling off the upset. Might have been the media spewing BS like they normally do. I do remember "experts" saying Pacquiao would be too small for Oscar. Guess they didn't take into account what weight draining does to a fighter.

              Exactly, Crawford needs to up his market value first.

              That said, im not for a Vargas fight either. Stay retired Manny. If you want to close the show. There is only one fight left that makes sense. Rematch Floyd to close that era of boxing for good. Win, lose or draw both of them bow in an exciting fight provided no running and hugging happens. But off course, that aint happening..there is no gaurantee floyd wont run and illegally clinch all night long if ever there's a rematch. Another stink fest will damage boxing for good!

              Floys owes boxing fans a refund for the stink fight he did while he got away with 200 million dollars of highway robbery. If there is one man who needs to redeem himself for that sorry display of boxing. It's floyd.

              He needs to step up and rematch Pac for the money, for boxing, for respect he lost. He needs to close the show with a fellow atg. But knowing floyd he wont risk it. Knowing he already lost to a one armed man. 2 healthy armed Pac will be too much for floyd.

              It won't happen..

              So.. Stay retired pac!

                  Manny is ducking TC . Manny is cashing out with jesse vargas. Crawford is far more accomplished and a born winner.

                  This is another algeiri fight
                  Crawford just fought Postol and his biggest fight was against an undersized 135 pounder as in Berto lol more accomplished? Look what Manny did at 140 and the competition he was up against!

                  Manny always kept it real with his team like the way it should be! The managers/advisors pick the fight, his promoter decides on whether it makes sense money-wise, and Manny always listens!

                  I like Bud, but you can never count Manny out! If Manny comes in as an underdog against any LW/WW in the game right now, I got my money on Manny!

                    Yeah as if Bud is a KO artist and Manny has a glass jaw! His only losses in his prime were against future hall of famers with the only KO loss coming from Marquez!!

                    I bet your hate for Manny will worsen when Manny puts the 140 pound champ to sleep.... unless Crawford decides to get some at 147 which I highly doubt!
