Oscar De La Hoya Recounts His Devastating Loss Against Manny Pacquiao

I mean bro if he fought Morales, Barrera, DLH, SSM, Pacquiao, etc in their primes, and beat them all then I would absolutely have him up in the top 3. And I understand that wasn't possible for all of them, so don't jump on me. A 0 means absolutely nothing to me. Marciano has one too. I have him nowhere near the top either. I watched Zab Judah hive Mayweather some serious issues for a good part of that fight. And Judah was like a poor mans Mosley Put MM in the 90s, at welter, in everyone's prime and he loses, maybe more than once. Put him in tbe 80s and he'd be in serious trouble imo. At lightweight and welter. Those were 15 round fighters that fought often. Big difference. Those 80s guys would have figured him out pretty quickly imo. Mayweather the lightweight. One of the bets I've ever seen. Mayweather the welter. Great business man and defensive wizard. Mayweather ran through guys at lightweight. Pacquiao did it in many divisions. Too very different fighters yes, but Mayweather was absolutely dominating guys at lightweight. Completely different fighter. Pacquiao same thing. Wouldn't be as easy for him at all. But considering how he ran through the divisions like he did. And he's smaller and started smaller. And imo is the literal definition of a P4P fighter. I have him higher. And I think in his prime Mayweather gets caught by him. Mayweather opened up more in his prime and that only helps pacquiao. Mayweather landed the least amount of punches in his career against Pacquiao. And out of prime, 5'5", pacquiao coming foward all night. I think they both looked bad and it was a disgrace. Even saying that, I saw pacquiao barely touch him on the end of a left punch and Mayweather go backwards. Wasn't even a good punch. A prime Pacquiao was a fucking machine. Anyway getting off topic. Both fought in good eras. But not prime eras. So I can't put either at 1-5. Just can't. I'd have Pacquiao at 14 right now, and Mayweather 15-16 range.

C'mon Oscar, you didn''t feel any pain when Bernard Hopkins doubled you over? Cocaine's a helluva drug

[@rspcoach619]

Oscar is in denial about getting hurt. The reason he can't pull the trigger was that he got hurt preventing him from exchanging with a much smaller Pacquiao coming from the lightweight class. Pain and fear of getting KO'd is a motivator to stop fighting though he's in the ring in a fight.

[@Ryenobal]

"I never felt pain." That body shot KO by Hopkins looked painful. De La Hoya was writhing in agony.

[@raimonta6039]

Yeajh he just mean that there was no significant single shot heavy enough that manny had thrown at him.Let us remember that manny was the lighter puncher between the two .Dela joya can absorb punches from a 164 pounder and Manny was just a natural 135 pounder balooned to 154 at that fight. He just quit because of Manny's speed and unrelentless combos. The feeling is like you are bitten by a fire ant which does not really hurt that much as compared to when you are hit by a stone. Unfortunately those fire ants seems to number a thousand...and oscar was tied to a tree.Who would not wanted to quit if you are in his position?

[@breakaway2x]

This was the prime Pacquiao that Floyd ducked for 5 years! Prime Pacquiao kills floyd mayweather. But I also know that old floyd beats old pacquiao because of the style of fight favors floyd at older age but in primes, it favors pacquiao and floyd knew this, hence ducking the fight.

[@johnwesley3885]

I agree that Floyd ducked a prime Pacqiaou, his father even told him not take a fight with him when it seemed like he may have back then. I stopped liking Floyd as a fighter after that, he's smart but smart guys become neurosurgeons warriors should occupy the ring. I thought it was a fight he could have lost or won but I would have respected him more either way. Manny on the other hand was taking on all comers.

[@breakaway2x]

@@johnwesley3885 100% agreed Will. That's exactly what I've been saying. Maybe floyd would have still won against a prime pac, I totally concede to that as being very possible, and if that happened, I too, would have a ton more respect of floyd and call him a true great. That's what upsets me. If he was the so-called self proclaimed TBE (the best ever), he sure didn't fight like it. He avoided a lot of dangerous fights to take fights he knows he could win. Where's the greatness in that? Sure he has a nice clean record, but against what competition? Where was the challenge and adversity? That's my problem with floyd and his arrogance. Ali would say he was the greatest, too, but he actually backed it up by fighting the best and most dangerous fighters of his time....Ali lost 5 times but I have more respect for him losing 5 times and proving he was the greatest ever than floyd being undefeated but never going to battle with the most challenging fights. Pacquiao on the other hand did nothing but rise to the occasion taking on bigger stronger fighters all the time.....he constantly put himself in a disadvantage by just moving up the weight classes he never should naturally be in.....he could have stayed at lightweight like lomachenko and go on a 50 fight win streak with 47 KOs and proclaim to be the best ever...but no, he decided to challenge himself, to take on bigger mountains, and put himself in greater risk because the reward was far greater. That's why Pacquiao is GREAT and floyd is not. I agree with you.

This are the type of fights that are severely dangerous. Oscar did not feel much of the pain but 2-4 more rounds of that he will be a vegetable. Pacquiao that night made Oscar look like Oscar never ever box. Seriously, I can count the punches that Oscar landed on Manny with one of my hand and Manny basically treated Oscar like he was prepping for his next fight with a punching bag............. the stoppage was right and undisputed. Oscar was on the verge of ending his career with a lifetime physical damage with that fight.
