    Exactly, But how that's Manny's fault & people holding it against him is beyond me.

    Oscar knew the game, he did it To JC Chavez & so on...
    (Now it was his turn)

    I would have beaten Oscar up that night!

    Suprised he didn't get knocked the **** out, or ref didn't stop it.. but this is an Oscar fight would the ref dare do such a thing?

    Larrys lines.. Oscar is trying to set a trap for manny but manny is too smart and too fast for him.... erm no, Oscar is ****ing knackered, has nothing left so he has no choice but to stand there and get the **** kicked out of out! Lay a trap? Ha, not Oscars style, never was!

    Do you realy feel Marquez would have beaten Mayweather if Floyd got on the scales at 145?

    I am not backing Floyd for what he did.For the record,i thought it was a ***** move but in reality,IMO that wouldn't of helped Marquez beat Mayweather.

    I didn't say Pacquiao was to blame, dude! Oscar was.

    De La Hoya challenged Chavez for a title in fight one and the rematch was just a money spinner. Chavez had no issues making weight for either fight despite being way past his best.

    I should have known you voted NO, and what does Floyd have to do with this? Out the blue you bring Floyd into the conversation.:-(

    Oscar would not beat PAC if he was not drained but he came down
    in weight with his own will .... otherwise Floyd promised go down
    to fight someone who never in his life weight more than 135lb
    making him fat and immobile then he CHEATED him on the scale.

    So Marquez at his natural weight (where he is fast, mobile and
    better conditioned) would be definitely more competitive and
    the fight would be at least scored even.

    During the first episode of the HBO 24/7 Pacquiao - Hatton series, Roach had said he saw IV marks on De La Hoya's arm, pointing out that he needed to be rehydrated surgically as a last result.

    By the way no one saying this pac fault!!!

    Pacquiao was the bigger man on fight night so off course Oscar was drained!

    He was a corpse and it was surprising to see an experienced boxer getting himself into such a state.

    Yes,it would've prob helped Marquez win some more rounds,but IMO he still would have come up short.

    Just my opinion.
