OKay pacfan..... I will be adding more to your anxiety. Personally, I really thought and believed that DLH was winning during the early rounds against PBF whom everybody considers as an excellent technical fighter. Consider me as a bad judge but I really thought DLH won that fight.

If PBF was unable to KO DLH, I don't see any reason why PAc would be able to do it. I've seen how PBF handled Hatton. I've seen how Hatton dismissed MAlignaggi easily. You know what, I still believe that Hatton would be too much for Pac.

These events lead me to conclude and affirm my previous prediction that Pac will not be winning this fight. I do agree that style makes fight but Pac's style won't work against DLH considering the fact that no matter how fast and strong PAc is, he won't be able to KO DLH.

This fight had been decided already. Pac will lose this fight but will go home a very, very wealthy man.

For the record, that's the only reason I'm agreeing on this fight.

Also, let it be noted that I rarely make mistake in my major prediction.

I don't know if Iwill include this fight in my prayers.

Mr. pacfan,

Here's one scenario on what might happen in the Hoya-PAC fight...

I made a post on some other thread about something like this. I NEEDED convincing because the only outcome I see is Oscar knocking out Pac brutally. Anything else would be a victory in itself.

C'MON PAC!!! PROVE ME WRONG!

[Taeth]

He needs to only come in when he is throwing shots, otherwise stay fully out of Oscar's range and hope that Oscar doesn't impose himself which he has never been known for doing fully. Pacquiao needs to either do that or swamp Oscar with workrate, and hope he can handle Oscar's power.

Dear Mr. pacfan,

Here's one boxing writer's imagination of the fight outcome;

"De La Hoya’s greatest weapon is a hybrid left hook/uppercut he calls his “45” – the angle at which the punch is delivered. But Pacquiao’s southpaw stance neutralizes much of its effect. De La Hoya’s 45 is best thrown over an oncoming orthodox fighter’s lowered right hand. That fighter’s chin sits at the end of De La Hoya’s extended left arm. Pacquiao’s chin will be closer and moving forward faster. Pacquiao’s right hand will be higher – for being in the lead.

With his 45 neutralized De La Hoya has to rely on his jab. But Pacquiao’s awfully quick. If he can slip De La Hoya’s jab he can pressure De La Hoya. Then it becomes a battle between Pacquiao’s left cross and De La Hoya’s right. Thirty pounds or otherwise, my money is on Pacquiao’s left.

So let’s imagine Pacquiao catches De La Hoya straight on the beard with a leaping left cross. De La Hoya drops. He rises. Then Pacquiao attacks, the best closer since Alec Baldwin in “Glengarry Glen Ross.” And De La Hoya withstands the onslaught. Now what?

De La Hoya has an opportunity to adjust, survive and outmaneuver both Pacquiao and trainer Freddie Roach – De La Hoya’s one-time trainer. If he can do this then win decisively, he can save his franchise.

How about that? A well-matched fight with ebb and flow and someone hitting the blue mat. Sounds like a recipe for any great fight. Maybe “The Dream Match” isn’t so different after all.

Time for a pick, then? No. I still don’t know who’s going to win."

Respectfully,

Pac is going to make ODLH look like an old man... - Fact (had to borrow that one for a second Fenster)



Enjoy your week of anxiety... it'll be worth it for the celebrations on Sunday..
