"Some people are criticizing Oscar for picking on a small guy like me," said the 5-foot-6½ Pacquiao. "Some are saying I'm taking the fight for the money. But on Dec. 6 I will prove all the critics wrong. It will be a great boxing match. You have seen my previous fights and you know how Manny Pacquiao fights in the ring. On Dec. 6 the fire and the intensity will be doubled. This is no mismatch."
