    I didn't try to predict an outcome. I was only stating a fact. If Manny can stand a flush shot from DLH in the first, he is quick enough to pull it off. Plus, he is very precise and has some power (I know, it probably won't carry as much from lower weights, but he's got power versus an Ottke who didn't have any).

    If he CAN'T stand a punch from DLH because of the weight difference, he'll run all night or get punched unconscious.:rasta

    The only reason why Roach is not giving Pacquiao a 100% win is because they only got the 35/65 split. Who would think that a 112lbs Flyweight would be fighting Oscar Dela Hoya one day for like 20 millions. Even the bigger Morales who started at 122lbs didn't have a chance to be mention in the ring with Oscar. If Pacquiao doesn't get hurt, as far as I'm concern he's already won.

    Roach talks a bit too much sometimes lol. I never listen to the trainers anyway. Floyd Sr. is about the only guy I listen to, just to see if he says something assinine, and he always does.

    Actually, Oscar is very good at Golf, so I think it's safe to say that ODLH KTFO Manny at golf too.

    Everything about this fight reeks of a business agreement.

    Roach has been saying that for a long time now, even before the fight was signed.

    Don't know what you're pointing at here, if it's Pac losing to DLH in a business agreement/prediction then I'll have to disagree. Pac is by far the biggest name in Roach's current stable and I doubt he will risk it all for just one megafight when they can have countless ones at 135 and 140.
