    Prime Hoya out boxed Tito Trinidad for 7 rounds, and should really have won the fight on the scorecards, even if he did get complacent.

    Pac came up the ring heavier than Oscar. He could have lost his speed and power and did not.

    But, as Dundee said, Pac is the better fighter that night.

    Angelo Dundee is one of the most highly respected trainer in the sport. i don't think he needs to lie about this one. There were things he thought shoulda, woulda, coulda...etc. he would've thought of an excuse but didn't go that way. Resorting to those will only lessen your credibility. Its the pussies who use it.

    I think both Dundee and Nacho would concede that the Hoya of two weeks ago, was not the Hoya of the Trinidad or Vargas fights.

    Likewise, Dundee has said from the start, and even after the fight, "De la Hoya should beat Manny Pacquiao." He's right, he should, but Sugar Ray Leonard should beat Norris and Camacho, also. That's the sport.

    Yep.

    Weight issue was the matter. He had looked good at 154lbs and shouldn't have ****ed with what was working.

    No, Mr. Presscot is the boxing equivelent of Pastor Phelps of the Westboro Baptist church on his quest to expose and humiliate all Oscarsexualism towards repentance.

    Where there is no ODLH, there IS no Presscot.:yep

    According to Mexican fans, all the recent fighters to get completely thrashed by Pacquiao were so shot they couldn't even walk to the ring. :lol:

    Weight advantages/disadvantages were negated by Pac going up 2 division weights higher which are not his natural weights given his height. Dela Hoya may have drained himself but Pac had to stuffed himself to reach l45 which cannot be said to be to his own advantage.
