    I really have a bad feeling for PAC. I mean I just havent seen him beat up and he may never be the same after this fight.

    But his stock believe it or not can still rise even with a loss. What losing scenarios can this be true?

    I say a hard fought UD with PAC not carried out in a stretcher.

    or

    A late DLH KO but PAC managing to hurt him along the way , wobble him somehow

    I'd like to see Pac get soundly outboxed early on and even dropped a couple of times. Then come back and win the championship rounds impressively, but still lose the decision.

    That actually is a very realistic scenario knowing how Oscar is great right off the gates but fades a little deep into the fight.

    Anything other than a KO win for Oscar will make him look bad. Pac has nothing to lose.

    Going the distance without running away would be an achievement.

    Anything other than a KO win for Oscar would be an embarrassment.

    just as long as pac only loses via decision and maybe get 3-4 rounds, he would've already done well in my book. the pressure here is really on dlh since he is expected to win impressively (via KO) being the much bigger man.

    Yeah sure Pac has something to lose if he doesnt get out of the 1st round..Although the backlash on DLH will be unbelievable

    In the past nine years, Oscar has put six boxers on the canvas. All of them were subsequently KO'd.

    If Pac goes down, that's probably the fight.



    Pac can win this fight.

    There's a size disparity, but not a huge one. Duran moved up further for Hagler.

    Pac has age and conditioning on his side.

    Also, at this point, speed.

    If he can avoid the KO, he can take a points win.



    Prediction:

    Oscar by UD or late stoppage.

    Well its basically a former flyweight world title holder vs a former middlweight world title holder, Pac should be getting knocked out.
