I never take ANYTHING DLH says serious. The guy is a walking contradiction, a hypocrite of the highest order. Havng watchied him over his entire career, the number of **** he's said makes me wonder how anyone took him serious to begin with. Of course, fanboys never were the best judge of character.
Just using that quote you posted as an example, man. Boxers now and again tend to contradict themselves from what they say before and then after a bout. People then tend to point out said quotes to support their argument/debate...but my point needs to be taken into consideration.
He would have been better off weight-drained. He tried to manipulate his muscle mass, and the result was much worse.
Bottom line is he should have never agreed to fight at 147lbs. But he did, got his a** handed to him, quit on his school and hence began the story of a legend in Pacquiao.:good And this is coming from someone who believes Mayweather will beat Pacquiao easier than most!
Oscar got hit with lefts down the pipe all night, that wouldn't change if he was prime or not. It wouldn't change at 154lbs either.
Besides the shock of his fight night weight, the other thing that stood out was Oscar's legs. They looked like chicken legs.
Because they put prime Oscar in the game. If they wanted to put the version that fought Hopkins they would have made a MW version in Fight Night.
