    You must be out of your mind. The funny thing is enough of you will believe this garbage. The best fighter in the world pfp according to you guys, and he has little to no chance at all to beat a 35 year old Dlh lol...comical.

    It will be a big accomplish from a person who started fighting just over a 100 lbs and beating someone who fought as high as 160lbs. Over coming all the advantages that Oscar has and winning the bout against him that would look very good. ATG i don't know but one of the best fighters from our era and the best Philippine fighter ever lived. I think if he stays at welter weight and beat some good fighters like Cotto i can see him an ATG.

    Pac is already an ATG top 75-100 for sure..This will have him knocking on top 50

    I agree. A win for Pac would be massively huge for his legacy. It'd be his biggest win to date IMO.

    I agree I was thinking more of TOP 50 but if you put it in that terms I can see it.

    I think Pac should be near 75 while Joe for example is nearer 100 at this point. But these two are still active and can move up significantly

    If Pac beats JMM again convincingly hes top 50 no matter what and Joe to beat Dawson and BHOP again top 50 as well

    The perception from most for this fight is that DLH is not only too big, but he is also significantly more skilled than Pacquiao. Thats what makes this a circus act, that Pacquiao does'nt have any significant advantages except for being the younger p4p candidate, 3 weight divisions below.

    Older fighters throughout history have had penchant for losing to younger fighters in their prime....in those past fights however, its almost always been the older fighter being at a weight disadvantage trying to capture another title at a higher weight class.

    This situation is much different here......its the younger fighter in his prime, thats actually going to move up two (really 3, he only has fought one joke of a fighter in D.Diaz at 135 lbs) weight divisions trying to beat a still outstanding fighter in DLH.


    Manny Pacquiao is going to get major props from me if he happens to legitly beat DLH.
    I'll consider it his most significant accomplishment to date......way above his demolition of MAB!

    Nothing.

    None of them will get credit for this bogus fight.

    DLH is a retired business man and he cannot for the life of him even enter the ring with anyone his own size these days. So nothing in it for Pac.

    Pac is much smaller and even a retired businessman should be able to be even with Pac. So if Oscar wins there is also not much in it.

    Just a bogus event.

    Some people are talking about Pac beating Mayweather. Now that is a whole different ball-game. If Pac beats a Mayweather after Floyd has had at least one tune-up then that would be Pac's best win - even better than the Barrera win.
