    ....i think this one will be the worst yet......HBO's production always makes it watchable though

    The ONLY Thing "Interesting" about this is How HBO will SPIN this FARCE...

    I think we already know how. They'll continually bring up how Manny is the P4P#1 fighter and is young and hungry. They'll bring up Roach saying Oscar is old and done and if Oscar can "turn back the clock for one night" nonsense.

    True...

    They'll MILK the Shit Out of the 1 Fight Roach Worked w/DeLa & Roach will MILK the Shit Out of "Weaknesses" he Saw N DeLa, that Manny can Exploit...

    It would really be hilarious if Oscar realistically pointed out Manny's weaknesses.

    I wish they had a 24/7 with James Toney. Every episode would have some classic quotes.

    Maybe not more boring, but probably equally as useless.

    "Amazing" N WHAT Regard???...

    CLEARLY, this is a LOW Risk-HIGH Reward Fight for DeLa...

    It All Depends...

    If DeLa Puts Some HURT on Manny Pac EARLY, that Could DETER him (If Not KO him)...After Awhile, Manny WOULDN'T Wildly Engage JM Marquez, so WHY Would he Do So Against a MUCH Larger Man N DeLa???...

    & If/When DeLa has DETERRED Manny, REED Can See him COASTING to a UD...

    The Fight will B "Interesting" Early, N a FREAK SHOW, CIRCUS Type of Way....But it Could Become Another DeLa-Forbes Type of Bout, after a Couple Rounds...

    It's kinda hard for me to see Pac going the distance unless DLH seriously takes it easy on him, or he is in fact completely weight drained...or just goes through the motions in his prep and in the ring.

    Other than the size differential, I don't think Forbes is a good comparison. He had a great style to go the distance (and not win any rounds).

    TRUE...

    But has there EVER Been as Little RISK N a DeLa Fight, as his Upcoming Bout???....

    are you talking about the fight itself, or the 24/7? I was talking about the latter in my earlier post.

    Unless you mean PPV then i would say his last fight against Forbes had even less risk.

    I was talking about the 24-7 for calzaghe and jones being hard to top when it comes to boredom. I'm not looking forward to this upcoming one either, tho

    Well to see if the guy who most people rank as p4p numero uno can deal with the speed and power of De la Hoya. Also im not really sure if De las style matches up good to Manny for this to be as easy as alot of people expect. De la has no right hand lead and its hard to land hooks on a southpaw.

    You are talking about it's hard to land hooks on a good southpaw BOXER. With the size difference and the fact that Pacquiao finds himself off balance a bunch, ODLH should have no issues landing his punches. This is a ridiculous mismatch.

    Dude, they have WEIGHT CLASSES for a REASON...

    This Fight SHOULD NOT B Happening:nono:...DeLa's Been CHERRY PICKING "Names" to Fight Ever Since he Tapped Out vs. Bernard...

    REED THOUGHT DeLa Hit the BOTTOM of the Barrel when he Faced Forbes, but to REED's SURPRISE, DeLa Found an even SMALLER Guy to Face...& Let's NOT Pretend Manny's N his PRIME Either...

    Bottom Line, this is a GROSSLY HIGH Reward-NO Risk Fight for DeLa & a NO-LOSE Scenario for Manny Pac...That's THE WORST of Both Worlds, for Boxing Fans...

    If DeLa STRETCHES Manny w/THE 1st Punch he Throws, EVERYBODY Will CONVENIENTLY Talk about the "Size Differential"...

    Glad YOU Think So...But he WOULDN'T...

    For the 1st Time EVER, Forbes would Actually have a Size ADVANTAGE...He'd FORCE Manny Pac BACKWARDS & Win a UD....
