This just blows my mind! From Manny's point I can see more money of course, but he is too small and this simply is not the best matchup that could've been made. I know Manny is good and all, but I'm not sure he has the technical skill to beat De La Hoya's experience and size. I'll watch the fight, but I can't really see this being a huge fight as I've seen some people already talking.

Then again, from a money stand point I could be wrong, but from a true fan of the sport, they could've done better.

This should be a great tilt. I'll be watching it on PPV for sure.

You are not the only one on the ppv kick either. I wish i could make it out there as I do think it would be a nice fight. Right now Oscar has some fans already a little muched by his past "news headlines" so maybe this is a reach for him to get back where he should be (not in womens clothes)!
