the goldenboy oscar de la hoya vs the pacman manny pacquiao?
821058
it will never happen because of the sizeable difference in weight....but the pacman would demolish oscar if they happen to be in the same division

what was even more surprising was that it was revealed after the fight that the pacman had a fever and was suffering from tonsillitis when he stepped into the ring...maybe this was the reason for the quick knockout...Manny must have felt his condition might be a problem if the fight went on to later rounds...this makes his accomplishment even more amazing!!!!!

I just think that's De la Hoya's way of saying either you want to fight me or you don't. I don't think Floyd is a stupid man. He has to know that De la Hoya is a drawing power and he knows that Oscar holds the cards in his favor as far as negotiations go, but he has to also try to make the best deal possible for himself in the process. And i certainly agree with Lovely Lady Vette's assessment that Floyd needs De la Hoya more because Oscar's legacy is already intact, we already know that he is a great fighter who fought just about every significant fighter from 130 to 160 in his career. Floyd is trying to get where Oscar already is, but in terms of De la Hoya fighting one more fight as he has stated that he wants to do, he also needs Floyd because that's really the only fight left in his career that the public is hungry for and he knows that. Oscar is not a stupid man either. I'm not saying that a rematch with Felix Trinidad wouldn't sell, but which fight do you think the public would much rather see? I guarantee it would be against Floyd. As far as the fight itself goes, i've said all along on this forum that i think De la Hoya would be Floyd's biggest threat because he's naturally bigger and has the hand speed and ring savvy to give Floyd lots of trouble. Right now it's a pick-em fight in my opinion. And i understand that a lot of people just don't like Floyd and refuse to give him any credit for the good fighters he has already beaten, but i'll stick to my guns and say he's still the best in the sport.

Sure, Mayweather is generally accepted to be the best pound-for-pound boxer currently, yet Oscar still has a good shot to beat him, especially if Mayweather's going to move up in weight for the fight. Talk about retiring in style.\n\nThere's nothing personal between Oscar and Floyd Jr. though, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem with Floyd Sr. training him. Whoever's best able to help Oscar get in shape for the fight.

He'll not only win but ko Morales. Filipinos are better in boxing.

Amy im not being funny but is this a joke question, you probably do know your boxing and meant to type Erik Morales from Mexico because Oscar Larios has proved that he cant do it.\nAnd even then Manny Pacquiao is gonna destroy Erik " El Terrible" Morales once and for all.

My gut is telling me Erik Morales will win, but I already made up my mind it would be Manny Pacquiao, due to the fact that Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. will not be fighting on that card. This may seem weird, but recently Morales has won all his fights with Chavez Jr. on the undercard. And the two without Julito on the undercard, Morales has lost. So I have to test my theory. Regardless, I can't see Morales losing big so I'm predicting a (possibly controversial) split decision for Pacquiao.

Of all 3, I'm chosing Pacman Pacquiao. Why? First and foremost he's a Filipino and nowadays, Filipinos are ruling this weightclasses. Second and the most important thing, Pacman has KO'd both these losers. They oughta change how they call themselves. They should no longer be called Mexicans. From now on they should be called MEXICAN'TS. Oh and in November, Pacman will knock the living hell out of Morales. After that match, Morales will retire a LOSER!!!

No doubt in my mind on this one at the moment it is Manny "The Pacman" Pacquiao.

pacquiao of the philippines will definitely win the bout.

I think oscar should win. It will be exciting and mayorga will start the action in a fast and ferocious manner. oscar will stick to his left jab to keep mayorga at bay while every now and then nailing mayorga with a left hook to the body and a couple of flurries and combos here and there while maintaining his distance with the left jab. I see a ko in the late rounds, mayorga will not be able to withstand the punishment to the body.

Prime for prime I'd go for Aaron.  He had a lot of anger in him.  He was an alternate at the Olympics, yet he did better than Howard Davis junior. He fought for years to get the good fights and the respect, fighting a legent Antonio Cervantez.  Then another great, his fight with Alexis Arguello was the one that earned him respect.  Oscar may have been a more mobile fighter with faster hands and very confident young man I just think Aaron was too much of a tiger and its hard to pull off a person like Aaron unless your willing to go head to head.  Lets face it then Oscar wasn't eager to mix it with a puncher.  When you consider the fight with Felix Trinidad he was hesitant and boxed.  I thought he could have knocked him out.  Aaron Pryor by knockout.

I like Erik Morales more, but mostly because he's a latino fighter. Both are talented boxers who have given us a lot of great fights. Unfortunately, Morales may have had too many tough fights already, but we should have Manny Pacquiao around for some time still to keep the sport exciting.
