    Dela Hoya is past prime yes. BUT people are getting crazy aboiut this excuse.

    Didnt 90% of all the boards and journalists tag this fight as a 'JOKE', ''CIRCUS', "HOAX" ??

    and PAC didnt have a chance?


    Can Israel Vasquez have 1 fight @126 and then jump to 135 and Dominate Cassamayor?

    What's your prediction before the fight? please answer honestly
    I said I gave Oscar a SLIGHT advantage but was not convinced 100% and I also mentioned before the fight how he fought a journeyman with no punching power and still got hurt and couldn't knock that small guy down so facing Pac would be a bigger threat because he obviously punched harder than Forbes and simply offered more. In conclusion, I was not sure of the outcome. I did root for Oscar.
    Also, when Oscar beat Julio Cesar Chavez, I didn't drool for that victory. I knew JC Chavez was passed his prime, old, worned out, etc. I would have if he won against Chavez at least 5 years before. Now that would be quite something. So I don't understand why hardcore Pac fans drool over Pac's victory if even Pac and his team acknowledged that Oscar didn't have it anymore, was passed his prime, was old, worned out, etc. And not only that but Oscar ended up weighting even less than Pac! In a weight he didn't fight since 2001.
    Did you see how much trouble he got from whitaker? he didnt look impressive againts lefties
    Wasn't Camacho a leftie too?
    He wont solve Pacquiao. Pernell is a defensive wizard. Pac dont just defend. he attacks when the opportunity is there and he hits harder that pernell
    Oscar faced guys who punched way harder than Pac and still took their punches. He even got knocked down and still got up to take care of business.
    Pacquiao got a shot Oscar but did exactly what he was supposed to do. He kicked his ass
    Yes, anybody who faces any Hall of Famer passed his prime is supposed to kick their ass, I agree.
    IF Berbick consistently dominated Hall of famers and WON multiple championships THEN
    If he faced Hall of Famers IN THEIR PRIME of course.

    Nice question... can Vasquez fight @126 and dominate the old Casamayor @ 135?
