The Dream Match

Tomorrow, We'll be the day we've all been waiting for. The Dream Match: Manny “pacman” Pacquiao going up against Golden Boy Oscar dela Hoya. Manny the Pound for Pound best fighter will be fighting for the of his country while Oscar will be avenging the losses of fellow mexicans like Diaz, Morales and Barrera that Pacquiao easily crushed.

Actually there's quite a size disparity here because Pacquiao is at 5'6 and Oscar who is four inches taller that many experts say it's a mismatch and Golden Boy would be pulverizing Pacquiao.

With a 47-3 record, with 2 draws and 35 knockouts, Pacquaio is the current WBC lightweight champion after knocking out David Diaz in his last fight. Dela Hoya has 39-5 record, with 30 knockouts. He's also won world titles in six different weight classes.

Here are some advantages each boxer will have to bring in fight night in order to win.
Pacquaio: Speed, Power, Agressiveness, Youth
dela Hoya: Size, Experience, Height, Reach

Even though Golden boy has the height and reach advantage, I still believe Pacman can win this fight with his speed, power, aggressiveness and heart. Go Pacman!
