        He was exhibiting effective ring control by walking him down, most of Pac's punches were hitting gloves/shoulders. Not sure why Oscar let up but Pac took the opportunity so fair play to him for beating an old fighter.

          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.


          You must be trolling, Pac showed a lot of respect for Oscar in the early rounds but even so was clearly winning them all. Couldn't miss with the left hand.

            I'll never forget how many people thought De La Hoya was gonna Win. I think he was even the betting favorite. He was past his prime but everyone thought the size difference was too much. Great fight

                This was sweet revenge for an obvious cherry pick. Hoya shouldve fought Margarito but cherry picked pacquiao, who in turned performed 1000 x better than Lil fraud I.V. weather.
