Comments Thread For: De La Hoya On Final Fight, Loss To Pacquiao: I Was Hoping To Get Knocked Out, Was Drunk During Camp

Oscar, this is why nobody believes **** you say:
Lies and excuses. You don't need to make up these things, you had an incredible career and life story
Now suddenly you were abused by the woman who you dedicated every fight to & were drinking during camp.
Sorry, but I'm not buying any of it

U should buy it. His mother used to grab his nuts and twist them until he turned light blue, and scream at him saying, "You're not a real man. You balls will never grow. They're tiny just like ur father's". Tough woman, she was

dont bite the hands that feed you then!

I didn’t. That was just one of those things where you know you can make some loot.

I wish I was still ******** like that and I had bet on Bivol or Teo. Those odds I’d have really cashed out.

Oscar had no business cutting down to 147 at that point in his career. I'm baffled as to why Pac fans hold this fight in such high regard.

Oscar shouldn't of dropped down to 147 from 154, but he was the one who called out Pacquiao to come up to 147, from 135. Oscar went down one weight division and Pacquiao went up two weight classes to make the fight happen. Oscar was favored to win and was still the cash cow who called all the shots. I'm no Pacquiao fan, but I think we gotta give the Pac fans this one.

Dude you have an account on this site so presumably you know about the sport and know Filipino officials thinking this DKSAB.

As a legit fan, you know 8Ball dela Fishnets hadnt been at 147 in 8 years. You know he wasnt going to be the 147 version of himself from the past.

There is no way YOU thought Manny was going to get beaten like that.

De LA Hoya had not fought at 147 for 7.5 years, but Pacquiao had never fought at 147. De La Hoya called the shots and since he was the cash cow, Pacquiao had to accept those demands.

"De La Hoya faced (47–3–2) on December 6, 2008 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Presented by and , the bout was a twelve-round, non-title fight at the 147-pound (67 kg) limit. Although Pacquiao went into the fight recognized as the leading pound for pound boxer in the world, some pundits speculated that 147 pounds could have been too far above his natural weight against the larger De La Hoya."

Whenever Delahoya talks, he uses words and phrases that are overly complex, flowery, and vague. I think he’s a master at manipulating and so we never will get the full truth out of him.

Thats true in one way and not in another, if you look at the negotiation, Manny wanted 143 originally and then it ended at 147, Oscar had not been at that weight for over 10yrs, he was a dead man walking come fight night there was no doubt about that, now also understand Manny had been at 144 fight night when he was weighing in at 130, so it basically allowed him to be as strong as possible with no drying out and he ended up weighing more than Oscar did on fight night where he had been over 160 fight night in all his previous fights except right before Manny with Steve Forbes and Oscar looked like sht, no fault of Mannys and he did what he did but its not a big win outside of the paper because of how messed up Oscar was.

[PeasantCrusha]

Oscar cannot seem to be GENUINE. He lives his life pretending as he runs from who he truly is.
