    :good It's all gravy. Boxing fans seem to disagree from time to time.:yep With that said, yes....Oscar was 1/2 the reason why PAC looked so good...just like PAC was 1/2 the reason DLH looked so bad. The sword cuts both ways.

    PAC is by all means a fighter transformed. From his fight with JMM in which he won a close decision he has come a long way. In his fight with Diaz he was able to showcase skills that were unavalable fighting such a great technical fighter like JMM before but the skills were evident and reienforced when he was able to duplicate that kind of skill set with DLH in anther weight division.

    I agree with everything you say about Floyd being what he is...and that is a GREAT talent with oustanding skills. However...PAC is also working with a lot of skills and emense talent that is only equaled to that of Floyd Jr.

    It could be a one sided fight...Floyd has done that to far lesser opponents in the past...but PAC is not a "lesser" foe...actually he's one of the more dangerous and dynamic fighters Floyd would have faced in his incredible career. So with that in mind I don't see a one sided fight for either guy...I see a more competitve fight with Floyd edging it by his composed technical skills allowing him to work through the harder points in this fight....if it were to be made of course.

    PBF isn't coming back give it a rest. If he turned down a easy mega rematch payday against Oscar who BTW he would have made more money fighting. Why in the hell would he come back to fight Pac, hatton or Cotto for less money?:deal

    I agree with you on that and I am really puzzled why Floyd with all his skills was apparrently so scared of Margo.:huh

    I agree, Floyd has better movement, is better defensively and stronger than JMM but JMM is much better offensively. JMM has underrated handspeed and throws more punches usually in 4 to 5 punch combinations. It was not only his defensive abilities that enabled JMM to hang with Pac (many say beat him) but more so because of his offensive game.

    Roach was consistently saying that Oscar could no longer pull the trigger but very few believed him. Pac exposed him in their fight thus the praise from those ppl. If Pac was not given full credit for beating Oscar, why ppl should give credit to such elite fighter like Floyd for rematching with him?:huh

    Cause he didn't srain DLH to beat him, and he beat him with pillows.

    anyone can showcase their talents against an Oscar that doesn't pull the trigger. I don't think Pac or PBF's win over a shot Oscar looks that great in the grand scheme of things.

    People were giving them both **** because it was a boring first fight, and a second would prove absolutely nothing. There were better fights to be made for both. And the fans spoke, they didn't want a rematch. All it would be is a "Pay me another 20 mill", which for some reason makes your panties wet.

    And the reason many gave Pac credit is despite PAC BEING THE UNDERDOG (Floyd was the fave when he fought DLH) Pac closed the show brilliantly.

    I supposed if Ivan Claderon just beat DLH, you'd give him no credit since Floyd got **** for a rematch too huh? :patsch

    You probably thought you made a valid point. As usual, you didn't.

    Pac's win over Oscar will raise the stakes. Fans will demand the fight and it will be another meagfight. Well, that if he beats Hatton.

    I think the people would rather see a Hatton/Cotto or a Cotto/PBF fight. The first scenario seems more likely.

    Hatton vs Cotto could never happen due to Hatton not being able to perform like he does at JWW. Too bad though, it would be a hell of a fight. I like Floyd and Cotto, but I just don't see Cotto winning. Well, everyone is getting ahead of themselves due to not knowing how Floyd is going to perform after such a long layoff. If he goes right for the gusto and fights Cotto or Mosley, we might have a real interesting fight.

    Wow, Mayweather wants AM after AM & Cotto pounded on each other and then Mosely finished AM off. What a crock of ****. Fight Cotto, Mosely or Clottey or stay gone. No one wants to see your boring ass anyway unless its to see you get ktfo.
