I've noticed even in the Floyd fight, and I've said it before that if Floyd had thrown more he would have dominated Oscar, he should have fought the same way he did against Corrales, but they were both a little gun shy, and when Floyd would throw combinations Oscar wouldn't counter or do anything but try and block shots, Well Pacquiao being both a southpaw and having a higher work rate, that worked perfectly, because as long as he threw punches Oscar would be too busy focusing on his defense. Speed kills, and Baldomir has no speed. I think Oscar wins this.

Of course DLH wins...Could he seek a softer opp?....

He sought out Stevie Forbes in hopes to look good...he got the win but looked terrible in doing so...

He sought out Pac in hopes of his size being the factor with a big name to boot...he was embaressed

Now Baldomir?.....Slow, on the slide big time, no power
