http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=108917 I stated earlier that the fight would be a beating similar to Diaz. As it turned out, it was worse than Diaz because Diaz was man enough to face the inevitable - KO (face first was such a horrible sight). Even when Dela Hoya was prime, he was exactly not very agile. Very limited lateral and head movement. It was like watching a robot fight. He had fast hands but only with the left hand, and not even the entire repertoire, only the left hook-cum uppercut. Thus, many were contending that Manny was one-dimensional but in reality, ODLH was more one-dimensional than him. Notice how when Pac moves to his right, ODLH has to reset his footing in order to be square or in hitting range (a habit formed during amateur fighting), which he had been doing even when he was prime. I have been a fan of ODLH since the Olympics. Unfortunately, I saw already his limitation even when he was prime fighter. In this match, power is useless if you can not hit or catch your opponent.
