that pretty much sums up my thoughts.....only thing i'd add is tie him up as much as can to avoid getting dropped....and oscars hand speeds diminished, so i'm sure he'll be able to land some counters on him......but yeah, thats about it......unless he wants to use "Plan Cotto" and give oscar a couple of lowblows in any round where he's on the edge of being hurt
He beats him at the negotiating table by being a stubborn ******* and giving Oscar and Richard Schaefer fits. 1. DO NOT budge on weight. Oscar wants this at 151, which tells me he cannot make 147 poiunds anymore. 2.DO NOT budge on gloves. 8 oz. gloves means Manny's body shots will do more damage to OScared. 3. $$$$ DO NOT budge on this, and accept nothing less than Pacs original offer, or no deal, period.
:good If team Pac can stand up to those stipulations he has a damn good chance to upset the golden ******. It would be a dream come true watching the mariachis after the fight leading the white horse up the aisle without Oscar and his white sombrero on it's back and Oscar standing in the middle of the ring with Merchant asking Oscar "What happened Oscar? The little guy sure beat the **** out of you didn't he?"And Oscar replying over the chorus of boos and chants of "We love Pac" from the crowd saying "Yeah, he packs quite a wallop"
It will be in small print. After being knocked unconcious and counted out. Manny Pac must then go directly to work at Oscars celebration party. Oscar will put a sombrero on little Manny, fill the outside up with chips and put a bowl of salsa in the center and Manny must walk around the party slowly as guests eat chips and salsa out of his hat.
I think if Oscar comes in weight drained and tries to load up on every shot like a pure puncher, Manny has a chance to win on points by using superior speed and reflexes. If Oscar just boxes in his natural style and simply tries to put consistent leather on Manny the KO shot will probably come and it's gonna be very brutal. I'm not very high on ODLH these days but he has the power to hurt legitimate welters and even some light middles. If Oscar can land the jab with any kind of consistency, Manny's gonna end up eating at least a few of those hard left hooks behind them. It will be interesting to see how Manny takes them. Imagine the hooks that dropped Vargas, Quartey, Carr, Mayorga, etc., slamming into Manny's little head over and over.....brutal.
