    I'm a fan of Dela always have been but that pic is ridiculous. Obviously Dela wants to check out with a big fight but this fight will mean absolutely nothing.

    Unless Pac lays him out then it would mean something :lol:

    I don't. Oscar doesn't deserve an easy megamoney making sparring match. I'd much rather see Pac fight Soto, a guy more tuned to his weight and who isn't nearly the pushover you think he is. In fact maybe me and you need to sig beat how long Soto would last against Pac.

    You're mad. Yes Manny is by far the better fighter right now, but he's just too fuckign small. The size difference is too much, and Manny won't hit hard enough to hurt or discourage oscar.

    Manny sure can punch, but at welterweight? Doubtful.

    40% is waaay too high. I hope Pac gets this fight to cash out but this is a total mismatch.

    I hope Pac rejects this offer too. Let Oscar keep searching.

    Is he?

    Pernell Whitaker gave him trouble, but Whitaker gave everyone trouble pre-1999.

    De La Hoya dominated Jimmy Bredahl and Hector Camacho.

    I wouldn't really count the moments when Felix Sturm turned southpaw and troubled a fat, fatigued Oscar.

    Usually, straight rights and left hooks and important against lefties, and left jabs are hard to land. But Manny can be hit with the jab quite often (i.e. the Morales fights). The left hand is more of Oscar's thing, and his straight right has always been inconsistent. DLH used the uppercut well against Camacho, but that was a prime DLH.

    What's wrong with Pacquiao-Soto? Soto is a good, tough, entertaining fighter who is close in size to Pacquiao.

    I've seen pacquio Kod before. no big deal. I don't wish anything bad on Manny.

    David Diaz was a gimme fight for him. Soto will be another easy fight for him. no thanks!

    besides I don't think Oscar will try to destroy Manny like some think. This isn't even a real fight. Roach will stop the fight before Manny gets hurt.

    I still dont' understand your love for Soto. BAsed on the Juarez win? who the fuck is Juarez? he was even less experienced than Soto when he faced him.

    The hype about Juarez was that he was a prospect with potential. Hardly anything to believe Soto has anything to offer in a Pacquiao fight.


    the fact that you wanna bet how long Soto will last shows that you know he will lose. It's just like the David Diaz fight. The more heart Soto shows the longer the beating.

    Soto has a great chin - that alone means he has at least a chance to win.
