Mannys win over Oscar has to be one of the greatest accomplishments in boxing history

I've seen you post multiple times with confused and delirious comments. Go to a damn psychologist with your mental breakdown of Pacman getting KTFO... It doesn't take away from his old wins. Pacquioa is and will always be one of the greatest fighters of this era. BUT, like every other fighter, what goes up must come down. Get over his loss...

Plus, his Delahoya win was the least impressive of his reign. This IV weight drained over the top Delahoya was just an offering of PPV stardom to Pacquiao.

 

Exactly. Oscar was a dehydrated drained, zombie, and was the smaller man.

 

Crazy...the bigger man on the weigh in night...is the smaller man the next night?!?!?!?

And he came from 154....JEEZUS

 

that was like tyson vs dougals almost.

 

I'm pretty sure the guy who is #1 at Heavyweight used to be 7lbs about 36 years ago. This therefore makes the achievement you're talking about pretty ****.

 

Well, Freddie Roach made an astute point about Oscar's stomach shrinking and him not being able to take in food and gain weight because of the hell he had put his digestive tract through. He simply could not keep anything down.

Nacho ****ed up big time by forcing DLH to hover around the welterweight limit for weeks, hoping that his body would adjust to the weight. He would have been better off allowing him to eat and train properly, and then using the last two weeks or so to drain the last couple of pounds down.

If he had done this, Oscar would still have been weight drained, but he would have at least been able to hydrate the point that he would be the bigger man.

 

:deal

FORTY year old KTFO Pac in his prime. DLH waaaaaaaaaaaay past his prime and Pac couldn't do what JMM did. DLH was still awake if I remember right.

 

I believe your right, I don't think DLH took a 2 minute nap snoring and dreaming and **** :yep

 

The Jmm KO of pad was tremendous but some posters here just hate on PAC are wankers who probably wank dreaming to be like him.

Just like ppl should get over pac's loss (more important things happening on this earth) so should ppl get over how great a boxer fighter PAC was even if they don't agree with everything he has done/said

 

It's not even close pal.

 

You're basically ESB's toilet!

 

I would think a millionaire many times over like DLH would have hired a nutrition expert to get down to the welterweight limit as safe as possible.

When DLH weighed 145 lbs most knew that was bad news for DLH.
When the next day HBO weighed him at 147 lbs, I already knew he was going to get destroyed by Pacquiao.

When DLH was fighting as a prime Welterweight, he'd climb the ring at or very close to 160 lbs. Most knew something was wrong when he climbed the ring against Pacquiao weighing only 147 lbs. He'd weigh more than that climbing a ring when he was a lightweight.

 

I'm as tall as Oscar, i can peak at 170 and yet can still go down at 145 within a month.

 

15/03/2008: Pacquaio fights Marquez @ 130lb

06/12/2008: Pacquiao fights De La Hoya @ 147lb

I know from personal experience this type of weight gain cannot happen naturally.
