    There were writers supporting the issues that Oscar had something personal against Pac before they fought. Roach and Oscar had nothing nice to say to each other after the Floyd fight and Roach was saying Oscar couldn't pull the trigger anymore. Come on, that's fire right there.

    We can agree to disagree. Oscar can make money anyway he wants and can choose any fight he wanted and it still be a huge draw.

    Your missing the point. Pac hit Oscar with a hundred thousand flush shots and could not knock him out.

    So either Oscar has one of the best chins ever, or Pac did not carry all his usual power he had at the lower weights to welter.

    Oscar quit and Pac probably saved himself from breaking his knuckles over his face.

    Oh please that was 24/7 drama bull crap and Roach loves to do that against his fighters opponents to psych them out. Like when he said Hatton would get knocked out and Cotto getting knocked out.

    Not as much as he would have against Pacquaio. Thats why he wanted a rematch against Floyd when they broke PPV records. When Floyd retired he lost that big payday. He needed another one. Cotto and Margarito would not have drawn the big payday that a fight with Pacquiao would have. Plus he knew those guys would tear him apart. He wanted the bigger money and the safer bet that he had chance of winning.

    No point agreeing to disagreeing with you. Your obviously an Oscar fanboy who is in denail on all things Oscar. I bet if Oscar committed murder in front of you. You'd still say he didn't do it:lol:

    I like comments like this!

    It means NO EXCUSES if PAC wins!

    Kindly wisper to Cotto not to cheat and hit PAC below the belt when pac is all over him ok?! He did that to Judah I wouldn't be surprised if he'll do it again if PAC is ahead on points and Cotto becomes frustrated..

    Kindly whisper to Roach and Pac that the welter limit is 147, not 145.:D

    That bull**** also motivates boxers and that **** was happening well before 24-7.

    Meanwhile, Oscar would have done better vs. Marg. How do I know? Shot Mosley blew him away. Pac would tear Mosley a new one too. Cotto wouldn't have been a bigger threat than pac and both those 2 fights would've been just as huge.

    Oscar has 100's of millions stashed. You really think that extra few million he got for Pac means **** to him? You gotta be fuking kidding me.

    no, and it's not okay to try and drain a fighter out of his natural weight either.

    Pac is one of my favorite fighters; but he is cheating Cotto as well.

    Just read Oscar's blog on RIng:

    "I’m basing that on my fight against Pacquiao. I could’ve stood there and put my face in front of him and he couldn’t have hurt me."

    I'll have some of what he's smoking. :rofl


    Pac spent that fight jumping up/in and hiting the 5ft 10 1/2 Oscar as well, which is bound to have lost him some power.

    Cotto is not a big Welter.
