Oscar De La Hoya lets Manny Pacquiao off The Hook
http://doghouseboxing.com/chee/chee_1124a06.htm
n a new report out by Rey Danseco in The Manila Times, Danseco reports that Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions has spared Manny Pacquiao from the lawsuit they filed against Top Rank Promotions in Los Angeles.
Danseco reports that out of respect to Pacquiao, Oscar De La Hoya instead wants to talk to Pacquiao, man to man and fighter to fighter to settle the issue.
A representative for Golden Boy Promotions was quoted in the Manila Times, saying: "We are hopeful that Manny
Pacquiao will recognize that he has surrounded himself with individuals which clearly do not have his best interest at heart and will come to the conclusion that the right thing to do is to honor the agreement he has entered with Golden Boy Promotions."
Although not going after Pacquiao in a lawsuit, De La Hoya's company reportedly intends to sue Pacquiao's close associates, Rex "Wakee" Salud ang Michael Koncz as well as his lawyer Franklin Gacal.
The representative for Golden Boy Promotions, added: "We believe that Manny has been ill advised to enter into another agreement. We believe further that Manny’s advisors Michael Koncz and Wakee Salud and his attorney Franklin Gacal have conspired against Golden Boy and induced Manny to breach his agreement. As a result follow up lawsuits against these three individuals are currently being prepared and will be filed shortly.":

Whew, what an issue Manny has gone into. I hate fighters being dragged in lawsuits. Oscar's decision not to include Pacquaio is commendable. This just shows that Oscar cares for fighters. Thumbs up for Oscar.
Re: Oscar De La Hoya lets Manny Pacquiao off The Hook
ODLh made a right decision. Although it sounds like Manny wouldnt have a leg to stand on if it went through.
Good for you Oscar.

I don't see why anyone is giving Oscar props for this, This had nothing to do with what was best for PAC, he had a contract with Arum that did not expire until after the Morales fight. He was stepping in where he had no business until Pacs contract expired and he was a free agent. The two things Oscar was trying to do was screw his enemy Arum and help himself by securing one of the top fighters out there who by the way was still under contract with Arum. Why give a guy props for trying to do something underhanded and dragging Pac into shit like this to begin with. Why didn't he just inform Pac that after his contract expired he would like to negotiate a contract with him and go head to head against Arum for his rights. I think Pac will honor the contract he signed with Arum. Arum has treated him well, paid him well and helped make him one of the biggest stars in boxing.

CC for you. Exactly. GBP is most definitely in the wrong, there is no way they win any court case considering that their original tampering charge would supercede everything that happened afterwards.

Nice to see a couple of you can see beyond the De La Hoya smile to the real devlish man inside.
If you ever watched Devils Advocate with Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves, well you should know who Oscar really is........
Re: Oscar De La Hoya lets Manny Pacquiao off The Hook
yeaaaaaaaaaaaa talk about exagerating, if any promoter should be considered the devils advocate it is Don King, and by a long shot, the man boosts up his fighters to be the greatest in the world, no harm in that, but then when they loose the son of a bitch goes over to the winner even if it's not one of his fighters and says he's the greatest in the world, then five minutes later is looking for ways to get the guy to become one of his clients
Re: Oscar De La Hoya lets Manny Pacquiao off The Hook
Golden Boy Promotions :spunk: Hahaha
Awwwe how nice of Oscar. ;D I'm not falling for it.
Of COURSE, Oscar isn't filing a lawsuit against "golden goose" Pac-man.

Nah not Don King everyone knows he's evil. He killed a man and has devil's hair!
As Pacino says in the film, 'You don't see me coming'
Oscar with his golden smile and butter wouldn't melt personality is the real Satan. 8)
