    Manny has great speed, relentless aggression and ever improving footwork.

    If he fights Oscar he'll surely have a plan to box and move like he did in the second Barrera fight, he's hardly going to go toe to toe like he did with Marquez.

    If this fight happens I say Manny comfortably goes the distance and could even win on points.

    I really don't see it as a one sided beating at all, especially seeing as Oscar will have a vested future interest in Manny looking good as for practically certain if they did fight, Manny would sign a contract with Goldenboy afterwards.
    Forbes might not be that much bigger than Pac. But he's use to fighting bigger fighters. His fights in the contender were all against bigger fighters. Pac has never fought a much bigger fighter. And he doesn't posses the boxing skills of a Forbes or Mayweather. Pac will get stretchered in this fight.
    And he doesn't posses the boxing skills of a Forbes

    VD, you've been drinking too much carrot juice.
    Forbes is a slickster. He has better boxing skills than Pac. He's a better boxer than Pac. That doesn't mean he's a better fighter. Cuz he's not.

    How about instead of this circus of a fight we have De La Hoya vs Margarito and Pacquiao vs Khan - I don't do PPV but I would for that bill.
