Is that coz you think De La Hoya is a bad style for Pac, and would be ahead from get-go, or are you like me and think that Pac is all wrong for De La Hoya but ends up getting walked onto something? Personally I think Pacquiao's too happy to trade to be a younger DLH, who was absolutely massive with ridiculous power and hands just as quick as Manny's. I think Pacquiao probably gets KOed by a left hook in the ninth while the cards read 77-75. For me, De La Hoya is a bit of a weird one at LW. There's a few top guys I can see, and in some cases think he could beat, but quite a few lower tier guys I think he could lose to. For example, I think he'd beat Pac and Floyd, yet would lose to Nazarov and Mosley. He'd obliterate Castillo, Popo, Corrales, Johnston etc IMO. Level above that crowd, which is a damn good place to be.
I think Oscar is too big for Pac at 135, and that it would be a much different story for Pac facing a young Oscar as opposed to the semi-retired corpse that he beat up in 08. And @Dog Jones yeah, Oscar is probably too big for DeJesus, and takes a competitive decision.
The pressure of Molina troubled him at 135. I don't think he would beat the Chavez from the Rosario fight. Sidenote: does Limon-Chavez exist? I can't imagine that it doesn't, and I've heard that it's a brilliant performance from Chavez. One of his best.
