With Freddie Roach behaving more like agent or manager than trainer, it seems as if Manny Pacquiao’s ridiculous challenge of Oscar De La Hoya on December 6 in Las Vegas, Nevada is inching closer and closer to reality.
My thoughts on this bout have been clear over the last few weeks.
So with a deep sense of disappointment that De La Hoya did not pick on somebody his own size (Antonio Margarito), I present to you the tale of the tape for Big Top Golden Boy ? De La Hoya vs. Pacquiao. Oscar De La Hoya vs Manny Pacquiao
