    No it wouldn't. If Pac tried to trade with Hoya, he gets his ass knocked out in like 3 rounds. If he tries to box him, he gets pummeled for about 5 rounds before getting laid out. This would not be a competitve fight

    That would be a disgrace to the sport.

    No it wouldn't. DLH would lay him out within 2-3 rounds. Maybe less.

    I'd rather watch Juan Diaz put a serious beatdown on Pacman

    Pacman maybe has a good thirty seconds to maybe two minutes where his speed is effective before one left hook lands.

    This is just too much height, too much weight, too much power for Pacs style. It was clear Floyd didn't really want to trade with Oscar because he was physically not strong enough to overpower him. When he traded it was in short spurts and he can beat people without trading. Pac can't.

    Pac gets humiliated here and if he lasts more than six rounds it is a miracle.

    You guys are way overestimating how much size difference is between them. Oscar was fat at 160, beefed up at 154, looks right at 147....Manny is thinking about going to 135, entered his last fight at 144 pounds...suppose Oscar agrees to fight at 147, day of the fight weigh in....Manny would look no different than he did in his last fight and would weigh 3 pounds less than Hoya

    De la Hoya isn't going from 154 to 140. The fight would be at 147.

    Pacman at 147?

    If Pac said "No", he'd be really stupid...take the $$$$

    DLH should use winning gloves and Pac should use head gear...just so DLH wouldn't kill him

    Oscar will KO Manny within 1. Oscar is a huge Welter. Left hook that can knock Mayroga down in one shot. Manny will past out twitching. Oscar is used to bang with bigger guy and being the bigger guy. Manny lacks the skills to pull this one off. noway hos!

    Oh dear Lord:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :patsch :patsch :patsch :patsch

    Larry Merchant cannot be ****ing serious. DLH would DESTROY Pac, and it is not even close to a fair fight.

    Pac is getting stunned and wobbled at 130. What the hell do you think would DLH would do at 147+?????

    One left hook, and Pac's career would be over. :deal
