    It will look just like DLH vs. Mayorga/Gatti. DLH probably knocks him down early, teases us with a few rounds and drops the hammer before the 8th.

    IMO Oscar was against a guy that's a Golden Boy fighter and he took it easy on him. He was just trying to stay active in what was no more than a sparring session open to the public.

    One fight at 135 and against not very good fighter compared to all division and now moving to 147 to face natural lightmiddle who will most likely come at ~160 + Oscar is no pushover the guy is oldschool and knows how to fight and can hang against any oponent at 154-160.
    I have a feeling we'll see circus here, Delahoya will Knockdown pac once or twice but wont move for the kill to show fans that Pac was competetive.:-(

    There's one this I can GUARANTEE!

    Pac's not a runner! He's going to give us a good fight! It's going to be more exciting that the fight of ODLH vs Forbes and the ODLH vs PBF!

    Too bad, it will be as entertaining as the fight lasts!

    if pac loses by SD only, I'll be happy. If pac loses by ko. I wouldn't be surprised at all!

    As a pac fan, I hope he still wins despite the odds and the fight will surely be the Upset of the decade if pac pulls through with a miracle win!

    Anyone wondered what several pounds of muscle mass can do for Pac in this fight since he has a 147 lb limit as compared to his previous 135 limit? I'm not sure Pac will become a better fighter eventhough he'll definitely become stronger. But more importantly how can Hoya cope up with the loss in weight for this fight? 'Sure hope he can remember how he felt when he KO'd Gatti back in 2001. IMO gaining weight is much easier (or more comfortable) than loosing it and that can be a factor come 12-6. Who will be the more physically fit fighter in the ring?:bbb

    I personally think Pac is gonna win, I'll bet all my vcash on it when it comes. Pac has nothing to lose, he's fighting a bigger guy, whos a bigger name/an ATG maybe, whos on the downside of his career. If he loses people will say "Oscar was too big" if he wins people will say "OMFG He beat him, but prime vs prime he woulda got KO'd" But he still gets respect for beating a bigger man.

    What if Oscar wins? I doubt it will happen but if it does people will just say he picked on a little guy. Thats what always happens to me when I KO some skinny ****er lol.

    I think Pac will win this fight, make it look easy, and may even get the KO.

    Hoya weighed 150.5 last fight. He's not coming that far down. Pac is the one stretching it here.

    Yup. Sure Roy made it look easy when he beat Ruiz, then he had to lose 25 pounds of muscle and was never the same. Losing that kind of weight, more importantly muscle is no way shape or form good for the body.

    He carried Forbes, simple as that. Oscar beat the ever loving crap out of a roided up Vargas at 154, I would in no way doubt his power. If he WANTS to ko Manny he's going to KO Manny. The question is does he want to.

    No shame in it. Shows you how I wasn't a Pac hater and was against the fight. No one knew Oscar would be a walking corpse on fight night.
