    :patsch ....

    Well, what do we expect for Roach to say? He is Manny's trainer... He is not going to say"Manny will get his ass kicked" right??

    Roach is so overrated. Like he's some genius or something? He can only do so much as a trainer.

    I think Pac is going to win.. hoya throws 90% arm punches now. Plus, I don't see him getting very motivated to win this one. If Pac wins, it'll make him boxing's number 1 attraction and GBP will be there to reap the benefits.

    Im still on the fence with this one. I don't think it's going to be the blood bath most are expecting.

    The fight being at 147 is key. DLH's stanima isn't to good at the best of times so i think Roach and Manny are banking on the fact that having the fight at a weight Oscar hasn't fought at for ages will deplete his stanima even more.

    Also Manny looked good in terms of speed and power when fighting Diaz. I know the fight was at 135 but Pac came into the ring at about 145 and Roach has said that he will come into the ring at a similar weight agasint DLH so we know that Pac will carry his speed up to 147.

    If Manny boxers smartly for the first half of the fight and doesn't get into a tear up early he can tire Oscar out. As the fight progresses up the pace.

    Like i said, i don't know who to pick but i am expecting a close fight.

    We will know in the first round who will win. When DLH will connect with Manny. If Manny doesn't seem to bothered, then he's got a chance. If he backs up... it's over buster.
