    if the people making the odds know that pac is gonna be this good, they should have pegged him as the favorite. this is getting silly. :patsch

    What does that have to do with when they actually get in the ring or when we see the zombie that was ODLH in the ring?

    my point is, if they are calling pac moving-up 2 divsions while oscar moving-down 3 pounds a circus, they should call also this fight the same thing where marquez was forced to move-up 1.5 division while floyd going down 3 pounds.

    about pac and jmm, this proves that they have balls facing fighters above their weight class while floyd is havaing problem facing fighters in his current weight class.

    they knew that oscar couldn't pull the trigger anymore and was gassing already after the 6th to the 8th round. they just underrated pac's capacity to move up in weight and skills so they feel that even a past his prime oscar could easily beat pac. :deal

    Pacquiao weighed 147 against Diaz. He didn't have to gain any weight. JMM weighed 140 against Juan Diaz. Floyd has never weighed more than 149. Oscar weighed at least 160 or more for years until the Pacquiao fight.

    No, everyone said it was the "size" factor.

    What we "THINK" of oscar de la hoya....

    will hold no truth towards the outcome of his performance


    weight
    focus
    health
    ring rust

    will hold truth

    therefore our "THOUGH" about dlh vs pac can not be used as a true point

    It still kinda was.

    Pac winning doesn't remove the absurdity or the stupidity or the INSANITY of the event, it just ends everything on a redeemable note.

    And as we all know, alls well that ends well.

    you're exagerrating. Oscar beat Steve Forbes 120-108 just a couple months earlier at 150. Thats a 3lb difference. And that same Steve Forbes gave WBC champ Berto a tough fight.
