Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Pacquiao is Probably The Best I Ever Fought

[pasawayako]

Oscar weighed less than Manny lol, dead man walking any top guy would have destroyed Oscar that night.

154 Oscar beats Manny, not Mannys fault at all it was Oscar who thought he could pull a fast over the smaller guy and it all backfired.

And no one gave a chance to pac i bet including you. pac is 4-1 underdog but still he did the impossible.

All the fight that oscar lose are all very competetive except against pac where he was dominated in every second by a smaller pac.

I think in past Dlh didn't give Pac his due as he was embarrassed how easy Pac best him. Of course Dlh would like to say he wasn't at his best because believe it or not Dlh does care about his own legacy and Pac would have shattered it.
Just like boxers makes excuse of my hand was hurting or my shoulder was hurting.

they always do that. the wont give pac a chance at all then when pac beat up his opponent they come back and accuse him of being on peds, or that his opponent is old, drained, etc.

Trinidad would have a lot of problems with Pacquiao's speed. He had trouble with De La Hoya's speed, imagine what Pacquiao could do to him. Pacquiao struggles against elite defensive fighters and counterpunches, Trinidad was neither.

de la huya was also the same size as tito. Pac is a little guy and if you don't think tito was an elite counter puncher then you don't know boxing. It would go like Canelo vs khan. All it'd take is 1 punch and pac would be out cold.

Oscar's team knew he was in trouble, not only because of the weight, but his problem with southpaws. BOTH Victor Ortiz and Edwin Valero beat the crap out of DLH in sparring. Valero was arguably smaller than Pac and was sent home early because he was too rough on DLH. There was an article on boxing scene that told about it back in 2009. I can find it if anyone is interested.

Roach said the day before the fight Oscar couldn't even complete running one lap before having to stop, and looked like a ghost. He didn't report the illegal IV Oscar took because he knew it wouldn't matter.

Yes, Manny won and stopped DLH, but it wasn't as big of an accomplishment as Pac fans think. DLH only rehydrated up to 147 fight night after weighing in at 145. Pac was actually the heavier guy in the ring on fight night.

The fight I always wanted to see was Pac vs Valero. They were at the same weight for a while but for some reason they never gave Valero the shot.

You're probably right dlh was ashamed that a smaller pac could do what other great bigger boxer he face couldn't do to him but as time pass by he accepted it gave pac his due.

yap I've read it before everytime pac fight. They allways have an excuse just to downgrade Pac.

Valero, a 130 lber, or Victor Ortiz would have been a much better fight for Pac on that night.
