    If Dela Hoya actually does make 147 I think he will weaken himself and give Pac a good chance if Pac keeps his stamina because you know Oscar won't late.

    I'll explain further on why I believe Pacquiao has a chance to win this fight.. I see this fight as 50/50, but for Pacquiao to win, he must have the perfect gameplan.. He shouldn't try to turn this into a brawl and he can't afford to be caught with too many power shots from DLH.. He'll have to make him miss, and use to speed and quick reflexes to maneuver in and out while throwing combinations, perferbly to the body of DLH.. I seriously doubt Pac will be able to KO DLH since he does have a solid chin, so Pac has to work on the body, where DLH is the weakest.. This will wear down DLH along with making him miss.. DH is already at about 152lbs and it will be hard for him to maintain that weight until fight time and this wil weaken him I do believe.. The best weapon I consider DLH to bring to this fight besides his left, is the jab.. Basically all in all, Pac has to make DLH miss while working on his body with quick combinations coming in from different angles.. Pac has been improving each fight as of late and I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a more technically sounded Pacquiao come December..

    As I said in my previous post, the key factors in this fight will be speed, reflexes, and gameplan..

    Sure! 20%. This is very much ODLH's fight to lose, I think. If he plays his cards right, it won't matter much what Money Pac does in this fight. Oscar is experienced and intelligent. He knows what he needs to do. If he still has it, which I believe he does, he will.

    Because he's the p4p No.1 and he's still got a few good years in him to give to the industry. Oscar is the box of boxing, but they never would have given him the SD win against Mayweather either, even if he had won. Business is business and Oscar has 1 more fight tops, after this. Money has at least 4-5.

    Also, if Money loses, the whole fight will look even more senseless. He is playing the role of David here. Goliath never wins. Remember Money May v. Big Show? Well, doesn't this fight have something of the WWE about it?;)

    Just my 2 bani.

    Hell no. Too small and the lack of defense and the lack of a plan B will be his downfall. Pac only knows how to fight one way and that's to got to war and it won't work against a much bigger and stronger man who can take his shots and laugh them off.

    All well and good but you forgot one thing. That's not his game that's not how he fights he can't learn that style at his age. Pac might try it for 1 or 2 rounds but when he sees it isn't working it will be back to doing what he knows best and that's to go to war.:deal

    This fight is a joke I can't believe how many people actually think Pac is going to win.:patsch :-( When these two stand next to each other at the weigh-in you'll see how Oscar dwarfs Manny and then many of you will change your tune.:deal This fight is a mismatch.

    I noticed the Money instead of Manny:D
    Anyway Oscar can fight a lot more if he wants to,freak shows like this always can be made,just like Manny has 4-5 fights,Oscar can have 3 with more money,remember Oscar makes the event,not Manny.There is Hatton,Mayweather rematch and otheres for Oscar.Anyway Oscar is gonna win decisevely
    My 2 banuti.:good

    It's true, Oscar brings the money. His fight against Hatton will make incredible amounts of dosh if they both win. It would be for the p4p No.1, of course, at least it will be so marketed here in Britain. 90,000 people at Wembley! pay per view in millions of British homes and all over the world!!!
