    Get used to hoya being a coward? Let him avoid margarito and pac shall punish him for underestimating the pacman. Don't you want to see a greedy cowardly lion to get beaten by a smaller guy? Or you rather bang your head regretting that you won't ever see this fight happen if hoya picks on margarito?

    Then you won't see an intriguing fight between 2 renowned greats, future hof's and atg's. Will pac beat a bigger guy? Can hoya really, easily whoop pac's ass? You won't see that and you will be wondering over and over again in endless what if's.

    I already told you that it's being renegotiated. This fight is still not closed. Everyone thinks this fight is ridiculous. Why? You think pac is walk in the park for hoya? I don't think so. Pac walks 148 pnds at fight night, he has improved more froma 1-dimensional crap. You think hoya is walk in the park for pac? Nope, Hoya is almost a legit middleweight and you got floyd sr. at his side. Who do you think would win?

    I rather see Pac fight solid P4P contenders and solidifying his status as an ATG because fighting an old timer in Oscar De La Hoya does nothing for him IMO. Cleaning out the lightweight and Jnr welters is the path to take.

    This fight is all about money and nothing else. If Pac wants to make some serious noise in the heavier divisions then his handlers should be looking at Margo and/or Williams as a possible opponent. These fighters are rated P4P and will also bring in the big bucks.

    Lets see.....on one hand we have Pac vs Oscar and on the other hand we have Pac vs Soto and Oscar vs Mora. :think

    Well i'v said it before on this forum that although the weight difference is great, the storyline is great and that's why I'd prefer Pac/ODH. The other fights have no luster and would attract minimal interest while a ODH vs Pac fight would undoubtedly create a media circus and can be promoted from an array of angles. Obviously the fight being ODH's last will be the focus of the promotion but the history that 2 fighters have with each other, Pac being P4P #1, Filipinos vs Mexicans, and of coarse wether Pac can overcome such a vast size disadvantage all will also focused on. Surely HBO will do a 24/7 series which everyone seems to love and boxing can always use the attention.

    Let's make it happen!!! :good

    I hear ya. After watching Cotto and Margo go out it for 11 rounds it restored some faith I had in boxing. If this fight goes ahead I will lose all my respect and faith that i have in this sport.

    65-35, wow, what an increase. The split should be a lot more closer then that since Paquaio is a big name and it's pretty luckily he's getting a beating in the fight.

    sixty - foe-tee I kick yo ass. haha good ole roy

    Yeah what a travesty, i might even see Pac clean out 135 and fight Hatton, that really breaks my heart.

    And ODLH might fight someone his size, gee that would be a real heartbreaker. Imagine if instead of fighting Pac, he got matched with Margo, that would be a real let down.

    So Hoya is too old for Pac and Pac is picking on old timer yet at the same time people want to matchup Hoya with Margarito? lol!

    He's too old for Pac but a good matchup for Margo, lol, Im gonna have to agree with some people on this board. Pac really is getting overrated.

    Let those wannabes do some elimination fights...... and while they're doing that , why don't we watch a future what IFs, if it doen't happen. In the future if PAC/HOYA fight doesn't happen there will surely be some INQUISITIVE MINDS/CURIOUS MINDS who will be wondering what if PAC/HOYA pushed through what would have happened. Quit talking about ATG fights for awhile, surely PACMAN's gonna go for that later, because once the elimination rounds for those PRETENDERS has been filtered to one, it's surely gonna be another PPV BLOCKBUSTER....sensible enough.:hat
