    Everyone is making a big deal out of Oscar's superior size, but I believe that Oscar when he was at 135 was a better fighter than he is now at 150. Not just p4p but overall.

    So my question is, if today's Pac fought the Oscar who beat Genaro Hernandez, would that be a more difficult challenge for him than fighting the Oscar who beat Steve Forbes? Thx.

    Forbes version - bigger, hard hitting and better schooled but less stamina and speed

    I agree, there was a tremendous jump in skills there for Hoya.

    Any version of Oscar is a hard fight for Pac.
