Why did all the experts, all the high rollers in vegas have their money on DLH? All of the HBO commentators thought DLH would be to big and to strong. No one and I repeat NO ONE said oscar was drained until he lost and that JT is a fact. Oscar was saying he was in the best shape of his life, Angelo Dundee said Oscar looked great. Its not fair to Manny Pacquiao for people to act like Oscar was old and drained because he just wasnt. You have not once have given credit for Paquiao annialating Oscar. Speed is speed. DLH couldnt stop that left hand if he had all advantages down to glove type ect. God rest his soul but dont try to compare corrales with Pacquiao man honestly! Speed, chin, footwork, everything about Pacquiao is better. Im not saying Mayweather is a bad fighter, obviously he's not, I just dont think he's the best in the world right now, and I dont think he can beat Manny Pacquiao at the moment. I know I've said this a thousand times but the chances of Ricky Hatton beating Pacquiao are about 1 in a 100. Hatton cant hit whats not there, I dont care how much he pressures him. Once again when Manny and Floyd fight (and they will) I think mayweather will land some shots, just not as many as Pacman. In the end it boils down to Pacquiao's movement. Head goes side to side continually, bounces on both feet in and out. Mayweather has never fought someone that moves like Pacquiao and I think it will frustrate him the whole night!
Actually,there were a few pointing that out before the bell,namely Saddo Boxer who of course had Manny motives, but facts are facts.Don't think you were around then?
yea but before the fight, people were talking about the weight not being an issue because pacs speed and pac doesn't get involve in huggings. They were saying the height would be oscars real advantage, but oscar didn't really use his height advantage. I guess he had to keep himself tight cause pac was just getting in and out so fast. If oscar did stand tall and jab he may have kept the fighting boring but yet containing pac more.
