    I would move Pacquiao down to number 4 p4p.Oscar would still be comfotably outside the top ten.

    DLH is barely top 30 at the moment would a one-sided win over the completely outsized Pacquiao really be enough to take him inside the top ten.

    Absolutely not - one win against a guy who normally weighs 25 pounds less than him in the ring does NOT put him in the Top 10 P4P. Let's face it, beating ODLH does nothing for one's P4P status anymore either. He's not the man anymore - this is not 1998.

    i don't know if a win for oscar would make him crack the top 20 nevermind top 10. this is lb4lb and a win over the much smaller pacquiao even if he is the lb4lb king, doesn't mean much in lb4lb terms.

    Disagree strongly. Oscar's last 3 matches (impressive TKO over mayorga, close loss to #1 p4p fighter, wide UD over Steve Forbes)...That's not as bad as people make it out to be.

    If Oscar shows he is not shot and beats pacman definitively, he deserves a spot in top 10. HE'S ONLY A 2-1 FAVORITE FOR CHRISTS SAKE! An oscar ko is a relative longshot.

    No way should DLH be in the top 10 p4p for beating Pacman, definately not.

    If Pac wins though, he has secured top place until he retires.

    Even a KO1 for Oscar shouldn't break him into the top 10. If Pac looses in a bad way then maybe I might drop him a place or two.

    a KO for oscar would put him back on the p4p radar, it depends on next fight then if he wants to break p4p top ten. If he fights a legit, top class fighter AT HIS WEIGHT and beats him, then we can talk maybe p4p top ten!

    as for pacman, he is top 2 now, and will stay top 2 after fight no matter what! it does not matter whether he number 1 or number 2 now, number 3 (JMM or hopkins) aint goin to jump him!!

    Pac would stay P4P#1 if he wins. DLH would still be rank where he is now.

    If Oscar wins he will crack top 20 and Pacquaio drops a few placess
