    This is what I'm fearing as the move up to two weight classes to face DLH may deleteriously affect Pacman in terms of speed and power. But I believe Pac can do it in my heart as he has youth on his side. But I would like to see who is favored here on the odds.

    Oscar is not shot and I doubt will even come close to losing this fight.

    If De La Hoya is shot then Shane Mosley is half dead.

    Of course not. This is the guy's business. If a you can make more money taking on a beatable opponent like De La Hoya than anybody else, who're you gonna choose?

    Very true. So from now on I hope I can't see anymore postings here on ESB complaining that PAC is only fighting old and shot boxers.

    PAC is always gunning for bigger and riskier challenges if they are available at hand.

    Win or lose, Manny will bring home millions of money. Can't blame if he fights ODLH. Any boxer in his place will do the same thing.

    Yeah... and millions of others around the world. Imagine the PPV King vs P4P King fighting on the ring. Who would resist that? :good
