Can you blame Pacquiao on picking the old and shot DelaHoya?

    De La Hoya is older, and he lost a lot of weight in his fight with Pac. But, I don't think DLH is a shot fighter. The reason he lost to Pac was because Pac is a tough southpaw. DLH has rarely fought any southpaws his entire career. Pac is not a predictable fighter, and DLH had trouble dealing with the straight left. That is why DLH fought the way he did, dumbfounded, didn't know what to do. The right hook beat up his face too. DLH should not retire. He shouldn't. You watch, he will beat good opponents if he decides to keep fighting, you watch.

    Barrera was considered one of the top PFP fighters in the world the first time they fought and Manny destroyed him. (Well, by your definition, he must have been old because Manny fought/beat him.)

    JMM was a top PFP fighter both times Manny fought him, and still is, and even if you don't like the decisions, they are practically evenly matched.

    He should not fight again. He's way down the hill.

    NO NEED TO DEBATE AS EVERYONE WHO FOUGHT PAC IS CALLED SHOT OR BUM AFTERWARDS!

    Wait Pacquiao picking an old and shot DLH? 90% of the so called experts and boxing fans picked Oscar to KO1 Pacquiao. Now he is picking?

    I noticed that avatar bet made by CLE and Psychopath. Psychopath lost that bet, I wonder if he's honoring that bet.

    If you read the whole thread, this user CLE was actually supporting Pacquiao. CLE even had an avatar bet with Psychopath.

    I think this user CLE is a Pacquiao supporter. He even placed an avatar bet on Pacquiao against Psychopath.
