    :lol: Excuse me?

    Pacquiao couldn't even knockout a badly faded, badly weight drained Oscar De La Hoya up at 147lb. Manny has had one fight at 140lb, he looked fantastic, but you would favor him to do to Oscar what Trinidad, Mosley, and Mayweather all couldn't? I couldn't possibly agree with that.

    Manny is a live opponent at 140lb with a prime Oscar, he showed how strong he was last time out, but I wouldn't favor him to win. People forget just how fast a peak Hoya was at his best, and he would have very comparable handspeed with Manny, whilst packing a lot more power than his opponent at the same time. He'd land often enough to force a stoppage, but that's just my opinion.

    Whether you see a Pacquiao victory or not, I could never envision Oscar being knocked out in the fight.:bart

    Yet how many people picked DLH when they saw tale of the tape? 1, 2? People only started to change their picks here after round 7! :lol:

    Excuses. People will either fantasize Pac looses in a fight that hasn't happened, or fantasize Pac looses in a fight that has happened under different circumstances :D
