Q: What would be better for the sport of boxing? A: Pacquiao winning would be the best thing, which I honestly think he will. (De La Hoya is past his prime and isn't a very good fighter anymore, so if he were to win it wouldn't be good for the sport of boxing and just produce boring fights) Not to mention if and when Pacquiao wins it will open up a string of other good fights. For example: Pacquiao > De La Hoya > > Pacquiao vs Ricky Hatton > > and finally he should retire on the pinnacle of his career fight vs former undisputed pound for pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr. Yes thats right: 'Pound 4 Pound best vs Pound 4 Pound Best' Manny Pacquiao vs Floyd Mayweather Jr. Now this would probably be the only fight worthy of making Mayweather come out of retirement to destroy pacquiao, but it would be a great fight and a $$$$ fight like none have seen. |

I'm with Erjay on this one, even though I'm mexican I can't stand De La Hoya and I hope he gets his ass handed to him. One question for those on the know, How much will the addded weight affect Pacquiao's speed? Moving up two weight classes should not be something favorable to him

Very true but i still don't think Oscar can keep up, Pac man needs to concentrate his speed in key areas to win, cause if he doesn't de la hoya's power will get him... |

I'll be cheering for Pacman.
Ps. I really want to see a Hatton vs. Pacquiao fight, lol; more than De La Hoya vs. Pacquiao...

I think that there is a lot of hype.
I say that these two guys will jump around the ring and not fight seriously. Either way, both are getting PAID very well. And people will be suckered in to believe it will be a good fight. I think that they are only fighting because it's Hyped up and publicity. They don't really have "bad" blooded or Rivalry. In addition, Oscar is probably not "mexican". He's like an Mexican-American. Manny is Fillipino. So, should Manny be teh Mexican-American destroyer now? I predict that it they will just Jab jab jab and will be boring. But I want Manny to knock oscar out. Preditions: 1. Manny by knockout 2. Manny by Decision 3. Oscar upset decision I don't think that Oscar can win by knockout or by unanimous decision or unbasiased decision. |

cant stand either one, but if de la hoya actually shows up to fight and not collect a paycheck, hes going to knock pacman out. oscar is a natural welterweight, and remember manny is moving up in weight. hes the super featherweight title holder (130lbs), and when he moved up to 140 to fight diaz, he didnt look too well. another 7lbs is a big deal in boxing, de la hoya by ko in 6.

i think manny will win. oscar's last couple of fights haven't been all that great.
the hate, i think, comes from his arrogrance. oscar's kind of has his head up his ass. he's in love with himself. |

true, the thing is oscar is now a businessman and only fights when he wants to, but if he shows up saturday night to fight, pacman will lose.
