Pac vd DLH will be another Changing of the Guard!!

[Panadzzz]

Aside from MONEY, any more reason(s) why Oscar Dela Hoya is keen on fighting the smaller Pacquiao?
Oscar said it's personal... He felt betrayed by PAC in the past when PAC signed with GBP first then switched to Top Rank.

This may be the following reasons why saddo.
1. Pac is an easier win for hoya.If hoya beats him he may be criticized for beating a guy coming up all the way from 106pnds. up to 147. That's 10 divisions south: quite shameful eh? But hey, pac is #1 p4p, beats him and you can brag: i beat the #1 p4p in the world etc., etc...
2. Roach insulted hoya by publicly saying hoya is old and faded, based on his training with him he said hoya is not the same hoya anymore.
3. Pac turned down hoya's golden boy to arum's top rank. He almost took that 100k$$$ but in the last minute, because of some technicalities of contract, was obliged to sign arum's toprank. Personally that's quite embarassing for hoya. So this fight might come down also for personal vendetta of hoya against pac for turning him down and making him a fool in front of everyone, and roach for the disrespectful comments he dished out in public.
4. Hoya doesn't want to fight mexicans or mexican-americans for his last farewell fight.
5. Hoya might do this for his fellow mexicans who lost on paper against pac, like mab(2x), jmm, and larios. All under goldenboy or was under goldenboy.(Since i heard mab is trying to make his own promotional outfit and planning to cut his ties with hoya.)
