Even if you are that much bigger then pac thats not going to get it done. Did oscar think pac wouldn't be the same whirlwind his always been at 147? Did he think it would be like fighting floyd, one punch at a time or momentary flurries while close to the ropes? It wasn't just the speed of pac it was the pace. after the second round oscar realize his not prepared for pacs speed AND PACE. he wasn't gun shy he was outgunned. i think he threw as much as he did during the floyd fight in 8 rounds. Pac finish off oscar, the floyd fight barely put a dent on oscar. Some people even though oscar won that fight so how could it have finish him off
    For the last time I'm NOT saying the fight physically finished him, I'm saying it made him doubt himself in such a way for the 1st time MENTALLY. I am not talking about how good Pac was, I'm reflecting on Oscar's performance in both that fight & the Forbes one. If those punch stats are true & Oscar was throwing as many punches I stand corrected. IMO the Mayweather fight was the first to really make him doubt his own ability, & I'm aware some people believe he won it, but how he talked after the Forbes fight made me believe that he himself thought he'd lost. Again, I'm not Moono trying to downplay Pac, but Oscar just looked frightened the other night, & I think that defeat got to him more than any other, even if it was one the least physically damaging fights he had

    Being a part-time fighter finished Oscar. He got progressively worse over his last few fights.

    I did notice you said in the title the floyd fight finish oscar then did state you meant mentally. I disagree, how could it have mentally finish him if he just lost a s.d. fight to the p4p king at the time? How could he doubt himself if some people thought he won that fight. I really dont think you have a valid point, what did make him doubt himself was the bhop lost. If you said that you would make more sense. That im sure made him think twice about fighting bigger guys and even the Sturm fight he should of lost. I think the floyd fight did nothing negative to him, REALLY man he just went 12 rounds and lost a close decision with the p4p king plus his in his mid 30!. I'd say he would of thought he aint doing bad for his age. heres a link where it shows the punch stats for pac vs oscar. honestly 400 thrown for oscar in 8 rounds is about average for him for the past few years. dont you think? 3:30 minutes into this vid:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Bg7...eature=related
