De La Hoya-Pacquiao: 8 Year Anniversary

[DeLaHoya1fan]

I remeber it like it was yesterday; Oscar dominated the early rounds but Pac managed to turn it around only because he was in better shape. I think a rematch would have gone very differently if DLH was motivated.

If there is any fighter that would Magically bring his prime years back it would have to be Pacquiao man. Not this 400 punches per fight Pacquiao not this boxer-counter puncher Pacquiao that only now replies with counters. I want the Pacquiao that ****d Oscar with his fish nets.

There's only so much you can achieve until you've done it all, that's what Oscar realized in between round and decided to go out on top.

I made a ****load on this fight and the Shane 1 fight. ODH fans were great because for the most part they DKSAB and were always willing to bet.

Wow at that undercard.

Wait...what! I think you're talking about a different fight. I think DLH was given one round out of pity at best.

Oscar was also 35 and coming down to a weight he hadn't been at in 7 1/2 years.

It's funny how people discredit Floyd's win over Oscar but credit Pacquaio

Funny thing is, Pac is older than Oscar was and people expect him to drop to 140 for Crawford, a weight he hasn't fought at in over 7 years.

I recall hard down arguing with my brother that Manny was about to give Oscar the worse ass whooping of his life, and long behold I was right.....This was around the time Oscar was getting his ass kicked, and in the process of ducking both Cotto/Margarito so even Oscar doubted his skillset then; on top of that on the 24/7 Oscar who always had unrivaled had speed looked slow as hell on the pads; I knew he was in for a brutal beaten.

Manny had to be on something; dude missed like 900 punches vs clottley; manny aint that old for that type of drop off
