    Well done sir.

    Although I'd rather have seen Magritte pop up in a thread that actually mattered. :good

    Roach openly admitted they picked DLH at 147 because they knew he would be shot and drained. :lol:

    Hoya cherry picked pac, but it looks like he picked the wrong cherry.

    that's not neccessarily true, larry merchant proposed the idea of that fight with pac...and roach jumped on it immeadetly, and then oscar accepted.

    of course pac jumped on it, he knew dlh had nothing left. Now I don't like or dislike pac but why won't he even consider fighting at 147 again, you wouldn't call it cherry picking by coming up as long as its a specific fighter. ex ( dlh but pac wont consider ssm or cotto at welter) i doubt he would fight pretty boy at the welter limit.

    he would clinicly out box margarito and eventually knock him out in the late rounds? the same thing would happen with cotto? mayweather woud win a lopsided decision against williams?

    wow, that's a lot of wuda cuda shuda fights that floyd did not let happen for obvious reasons.

    Roach did not jump on it immediately. When asked by a writer about what larry said, oscar lokked at the writer like some crazy dude and said they're not crazy. It was only much much later when freddie agreed and backed it up by "oscar can't pull the trigger anymore".

    Void ran from Cotto, Margarito, Mosely and Pac. Void make big money for cheating like Hell.

    HE SAID KNOCK MARGARITO OUT... you telling me a fighter with suspect hands and decent power (Floyd) is going to knock out a guy with one of the best chins in boxing? It took Mosley 9 rounds of bombs to put the guy down, AM took all of Cotto's shots like if it was nothing, ate PW shots and Clottey's punches, etc...don't let your nuthuggery blind you man. :hi:

    Castillo sure beat the crap out of Void. Oscar beat Void in my opion, Pac took care of Hatton and Oscar. Void is void.

    I wasn't on these forums when Mosley fought Margarito. I did pick Mosley to win based on the fact that he can take a punch, was going to be probably the hardest hitter that Margo went up against and of course Mosley had the faster hands. I'll admit, wasn't expecting a brutal 1 sided beatdown however...

    I just missed getting my bet in on Mosely. The news was all over the street that Margarito did not train for the fight, that's why I was going to pick Mosely. I still have the betting sheet in my coat pocket. It was cold in Vegas last January.
