    Why should they criticize Pac? He's after the money alright but will have to jump 2 divisions up to get it..

    Pac is going into the most challenging fight of his career whereas DLH is just picking on a midget. Probably take his lunch from him too.

    Criticize Oscar all you want but he is giving Pac an opportunity to become an immortal in boxing while offering Pac his biggest paycheck.. I will reserve my criticism after the fight, specially if Oscar Ko's Pac within 3 rounds.

    Pac isn't as bad as Oscar, but he is taking a loss for a big payday, which imo is pretty disappointing.

    The fact is Pac should be trying to clean out 135 and having real fights not exhibition matches with Andre the giant.

    Pac definitely isn't undeserving of a payday, but better fights could have been made for boxing and his fans.

    I don't think Pac thinks he'll lose. I honestly think Freddie Roach has gassed him up to the point where he actually thinks he could beat Oscar.

    It takes 2 to tango Pac is selling out for money no one would be suprised if DLH put a beating on him but he is only doing it for money.
    So both are to blame for the Shamockary

    yeah I originally said 100 / 0, but Pac is a tiny bit to blame. 6.3 is pushing it though :nono

    Am I the only person here who believe that this is not a walk over for Oscar? Pac has far superior speed and never ending stamina. Oscar showed against Floyd that he can't deal with speed anymore after he gets a lil' fatiqued. Outside of the jab Oscar had very little success. Now, Factor in that Pac is a Southpaw and that takes Oscar's jab down a notch. Yes, he's smaller but have any of you guys ever seen Steve Forbes in person? We used to train under Kenny Kroom at the same time. He's freaking tiny! He has to be the smallest welter that I've ever seen. I see Oscar retiring after this bout!!!!!!!!!!

    Im sure he has a lot more doubts than he usually does. There is always a chance in boxing, but cliched bull**** aside, i don't see this as some heroic little guy versus the odds fight.
