You're wrong Chris. The last week the training is pretty much over. All you'd do is light stuff and roadwork etc. Most guys cut back drastically the last week/few days before a fight depending on how much they need to drop. Most walk around about 15 to 18 lbs over what they fight at. That's where a good trainer comes in. He'll keep you from peaking too soon and getting too heavy so you dont have to starve yourself before a fight too much. But plenty of guys have had to eat very little up to a week prior to a fight and be weak and lose it. |

Great decision by Oscar's corner to stop the fight. He was just so fast and quick Oscar never had a chance. Wow just really an embarrassing fight for Oscar and a horrible way to go out. He was paralyzed by Mannys quickness and speed, way too much.

Wish I coulda seen it. yay Pacman, Delahoya has been hanging on only for the money for awhile now. Good to see him get his ass kicked. Will say I'm surprised even tho Oscar has been a little past it for awjilhe now. It's hard to move up a weight class, much less 3.
Damn impressive.

Manny fought his last fight at 147 against Diaz and he dominated. His speed carried along to this class and he just looks great. Oscar loves boxing thats why he has stayed but even last year with Mayweather he still looked great. Tonight was a complete shock to me as he got DOMINATED on and it was just really hard to watch.

Manny started out at maybe Flyweight, I know no heavier than Featherweight.
To move up to welterweight and win a title even over a couple of yrs time is as impressive as hell.

He didn;t win the welterweight title. Oscar is not or wasn't the champ.

Yes I know, Oscar started out at lightweight and went to welterweight though earlier in his career. Oscar is pretty much a natural welterweight so that's not that big a deal. When Oscar moved up it was hence his disappoitning showings at the higher weights. Like I said tho he's been past his prime for 5 yrs anyway. |

Thats right Oscar was'nt one of the champs, my bad.
Still does'nt detract from the feat though to me for Pacman.

Thats a huge step up in weight and quality even with an older Oscar.
