Is ODLH-Forbes a preparation for PAC-ODLH?

[XaduBoxer]

Oscar Dela Hoya has to make weight at 150 lbs. tomorrow for his fight with Steve Forbes this weekend. Is this a preparation for a possible showdown with Pacquiao at 147 down the road?

Forbes is a former super featherweight champ, PAC is a current super featherweight champ and will be jumping to lightweight in his next fight...

ODLH has PAC as a backup fight in case ODLH-PBF in September can't be made due to PBF's high demands...

ODLH has been fighting at 154 for a long time now and why is he sacrificing to fight at 150 against a relatively unknown boxer? Is Oscar preparing himself for a mega showdown with PAC?

You mean in case PBF doesn't want to make another $20,000,000.00 (847,256,710.25 Phillippine Peso's)
I seriously doubt it.

What I mean is, Oscar is showing to PBF that he can make 147 and he has a lot of options besides PBF (PAC-ODLH, Cotto-ODLH or maybe Hatton-ODLH). This will prevent PBF from asking too much in their planned September rematch...

NO.

ODLH-Pac is BULL!

[killersheep]

NO.

ODLH-Pac is BULL!

PAC would never be so stupid as to go up to an untested weight against a guy who can make all of the decisions in the negotiations and will balloon up to 160 on fight night.

PAC knows better than that.

[XaduBoxer]

No.

Any reason why ODLH is fighting Forbes at 147 ? Why Oscar didn't fight at 154 against some other boxer?

If this is not a preparation for PAC-ODLH, is this a preparation for ODLH-Cotto?

DelaHypa should stick to promoting.He is tired.

ODLH needs a KO to boost his standing in boxing back up with the general public, that would be difficult against any of the people at 154.

A KO against a small unknown boxer (Forbes) has no meaning at all...

Since when is DLH-Forbes at 147? I thought it was a 150 catchweight.

Now that i would of loved to see, back in the old days of RJJ fighting at 160, he could of dropped to 154, floyd could of ballooned much quicker than expected.......

oh who am i kidding

For the record if pac ever decides to fight at 147 i like most boxing marks will completely disown the man as it would be for nothing more than to make a few extra mill to his already bulging bank account

Many PAc a 147 is like an elementary school kid picking a fight with the Hight school kids.
