    Steve Forbes MARKED DLH's face badly in their last fight . . . but still lost.

    I figure if we can get the honest assesment of who's gonna win if Forbes and Pacquaio fight at 147 now . . . then we can have an idea of Pacqauio's real chances of beating DLH.

    Vote and discuss. :yep

    Hey . . . just honest opinions and no bull**** please. :D

    I'm asking at 147 because that's the intended weigtht for the DLH/Pac fight. Forbes fought DLH weighing 150.

    I don't think it should happen at 147, but either way it could be a good test for Manny becasuse forbes has solid boxing skills and a great chin.

    Well that's the point of this thread . . . a test for Pac against naturally heavier fighters.

    Take note . . . the scores for DLH/Forbes were:

    119-109 (2x) and 120-108 all for DLH. :D

    Useless? This is gauge based on people's analysis bud . . . so just vote if you wish to be part of it. :yep

    I find it unnecessary to argue with you because as far as you are concerned Pac will beat Hatton;Cotto; DLH . . . and I'm giving you that. And OH . . . even . . . Floyd. :lol: :good

    Chins of Stone Forbes would completely outbox Pac.

    Pac would have to move up to many weight classes and is like 4 or 5 inchs shorter than Oscar.

    It would be a good test fight for 140 or above because even though Forbes would embarrass Pac, he wouldn't decapitate him like any of the other top 140 or 147 fighters would.

    Pac is listed at 5'6" 1/5; Forbes is listed at 5'7" 1/2 and DLH at 5'10" 1/2.

    Reach: Pac =67; Forbes = 68 and DLH = 73

    The scores for DLH/Forbes were: 119-109 (2x) and 120-108 all for DLH

    Forbes and DLH fought at a catch weight of 150 lbs.

    Dunno' about 147, but I think Pac could take him in a decision at 140.. If the Pac/DLH fight does get made, then a lot of questions will be answered on fight night..

    no way fishnets make 147..:lol: the intended fight weight for forbes was 147 but hoya can't make weight.

    anyway pac doesn't KO forbes..forbes has amazing defense, one slick boxer..this would be going full 12 even DLH can't put forbes away
