Now seriously, what's the possible 'winning' strategy for pacman.
Ok, boxing experts or x-perts, what should the mighty-mini Emmanuel Pacquiao (that's him) do to win this fight, if there's anything at all?
They've been telling us that pac needs to use his speed to his advantage and overwhelm slower Oscar with never ending barrage of shots. (They must be dreamin') The local paper blurted our just yesterday morning that pac must avoid Oscar's right hook (was it left?). How the heck will he be able to do that for the entire fight? Frankly I think Oscar the Golden Boy can just go on, on a shooting rampage from the beginning and try to finish the fight early, and I doubt if pac has anything to repulse or counter that, certainly not with his 135lb power, IMO. So if Oscar decides to launch an early all-out offense, I don't think Manny can do anything except...
...run. What about the speed? No doubt pac has the speed but will he be able to consistently attack the Golden kid and hit him enough to hurt him, while avoiding that right hook at the same time? considering the fact that Oscar has enough reach to keep our little boy at bay? Hmmm, this is tough, really tough... hand me some aspirins...
So what have you guys to say about it. Is there any strategy or game plan for pac that can help him overcome his 'handicap' against his bigger and stronger opponent - a golden startegy that will ultimately help him reach that impossible dream? Basically, I think it's a fight between speed vs. power and reach. Share your thoughts, fellas.
(I have my own thoughts on how it might be done but I'll reserve it until friday.)

Once in awhile, get outside in fresh air, take a deep breath & with a deep sigh, let out all the things that's bottled up inside you & be free, & you'll get a glimpse of nirvana.
