    Most people think Oscar will win but if he wins say 10-2 rounds or more will people still consider Pacman p4p no1?

    Also now that Oscar owns ring Magazine if he wins will he put himself as p4p no1?

    i would say no a p4p no1 has to win. no excuses, if you are number one you have to prove it.

    Hard to say. Will depend on what manner he loses in. If it just seems like he's getting outboxed, then no he won't keep it. But if it seems like size and strength see his demise, then he could keep the spot.

    Would have to agree.

    Is he currently P4P #1 by The Ring?

    It depends. I can see a clear win by DLH but through a very tough fight. If DLH just makes mince meat out of him then ye id drop him below Calzaghe.

    no he is not, joe fans already feel joe is when pac gets koed.ring mag will have joe as number 1.pac might go down to 5 if he loses.i guess to pac its work it unless he really thinks he can win.

    Can't have as #1 P4P someone that just lost...especially if he recently had also a close fight against JMM.

    If he loses I still think he goes above JMM.

    Depending on how Pac loses, #1 goes to JMM. If it is a close fight that goes to the cards, even if he loses, I think the argument can be made that Pac should stay #1. If he gets blown out on pts or KO'd it is a tough argument to make and I think it should probably go to the #2 guy, but we will have to see.

    I think he will be, what you think oscar will get p4p status by beating a midget?

    Paquio needs to lose to a fairly matched opponent to lose p4p

    Oh and by the way the ring mag is now ranking Calzaghe at NUMBER ****ING THREE in the p4p so he wont be taking over
