    Because I thought the speed factor might be only slight in favor of Pacquaio, that doesn't necassarily mean De La Hoya has an easy time if that was the case. Heard of timing and accuracy? If De La Hoya was slightly slower, does that really mean he's doesn't have a problem with Pacquaio's speed?

    Think about it...............

    Conteh- Typical. You're acting like you got the prediction right :good

    You're seeing things you want to see. They just aren't there.

    The thing is, you came back on, totally unabashed, and beginning your sentence with what 'you knew'. That's what I have a problem with. Remember the other one? I can't recall the fight but you got it wrong and your first post back on here was what you "said to your mates just before the fight". :lol:

    Who's everyone? Listen to you who invited me back to continue an arguement only to delete your post at a later date. Moron. I guess you realised you made an ass of yourself looking for further trouble and thought otherwise. Good choice.

    You liar. After I said "I can handle you easily" and then said I was leaving to go to ASDA you replied went onto rumble on about I'll take you "anytime" in an arguement and you seemed very heated on it to put it mildly. You even said "I'll be waiting". Then you later deleted the post and left it with "I apoligise to everyone on ESB"

    Don't ****in deny it Conteh. My guess is that you will. And you did say "I'll be waiting", hence looking to further keep things going and generally being a dick. :lol:

    Yes, I said that and felt I overreacted. The thing is you weren't going to Asda obviously, so you were lying to get out of the confrontation. But now you've seen it, then we can have have numerous debates and arguments. You'll be no match for me. :good



    I won't deny anything. I felt bad at the time because you said something about me wanting to have 'the last word', so I deleted it as I thought it was going too far. But now I know you've read it, I can confirm I meant everything I said. :good

    Here's a little concession: . Whitaker was loose and fluid. Manny is loose and fluid. Oscar, if you like, wasn't fluid comparatively speaking. Compared to say, Alexis Arguello, Oscar could be fluid -particularly in the Hernandez fight.

    Oscar was more of a stalker -he was normally calculating and he was cautious. This doesn't automatically exclude his demonstrating glimpses of other styles in certain fights where he was physically dominant or fighting a taller fighter, etc. His normal style was not "loose and fluid" and it became particularly the case as he aged. If "tense" bothers you, then I'll withdraw it.

    Want to know something. I'm not on here to make enemies with anyone. I'm here to chat about boxing. Not to become personal and insult people and generally be an *******. I have next to zero history of this.

    I did have one, I repeat on episode of a debate that got personal with Manassa under a year ago. It drifted away from boxing. And I had the deciency to message Manassa and shake hands on the matter. Forgotten about as far as I'm concerned.

    When myself and Stonehands get involved with debating, it's boxing related. And me and him are cool with each other. He even said off his own back when quoting one of my posts "you're a solid poster". Surely he doesn't find me difficult to understand when reading any of my posts with such a conclusion on the quality of my posts. Thats a far cry from JT's nonsense that not just he, but also the majority of others take me wrong and find me difficult to understand what I type. I find that so far from the truth, It's actually humorous rather than insulting. I'm on here daily, chatting boxing, and never find anyone quoting me and not having a clue what I'm talking about. Certainlly not on a regular basis. Some of us make mistakes from time to time. Spelling mistakes or breaking down our points. It happens.

    I did go to ASDA, eventually. Yes, not lying either. I was certainly a match for you earlier when you said "you're acting like you got the prediction right" Thats was broken down in stages. And you're wrong.

    I'm not. It was the tone of your posts. You're one of those who try to make out they always get something right. Yeah, big deal. Everyone does, they just don't talk about it when they're totally wrong. "Speed will be a problem" and then a few sentences later said "the speed advantage is very slight" (or words to that effect).


    Like i said, you hedge your bets. I used to do it, when I was about 12. My dad would ask me who'd win a fight and my response was probably in the realm of "Fighter A if he gets past round 6", he'd reply "what kind of prediction is that. Who will win?" Me: "Ok, Fighter B by early KO". If the fight then went the distance with Fighter A winning i wouldn't say "I said Fighter B would have to catch him early if he had a chance" whereas, you would.
