DLH/Pac nearly set Dec. 6

[nj]

I figure the lines will be realeased early since there will be money flooding in on both sides. DLH should knock Manny out fairly easily, but I get the feeling this will turn into a sparring session and go longer than it has to.

How do you think it will open? Im hoping to catch DLH big at -250, and under 9.5 or Oscar inside.

Does anybody give Manny a chance here?

Isn't Manny a natural light weight? He will lose speed at 147 pounds. The old man will knock him out.

sadly,i see it exactly the same way.....i was hoping the manny hype might shade opinion and the odds a bit.....

but it seems that savvy boxing folk ain`t fallin` for it.....:shrug:

truthfully,i`d much rather see dlh vs andre berto and see smallish stevie forbes fight manny....

i just think those matchups are more interesting...

fudge, fight looks to be off. this morning i read its basically complete, now they cant agree on $. manny wants 40%, dlh gives him 30%. this was going to be very easy money.

i would like to say Oscar is a pussy for ducking Margarito but you have to admit Oscar has fought basically everyone. I would love to see Oscar and Margarito go at it. I think their styles would produce a great fight. Not real interested in seein him and Pacman go at it. Pac is pushing it here in my opinion.

ha!

as the fight nears DLH will be the parlay finisher for everything. hbo will build it up to be "mexico's revenge", im hoping the hillbilly masses will bet pac enough to keep oscar around -200.

oscar HUGE. if it sounds like a really spirited matched, oscar inside big.

The MGM Grand has posted the opening lines for the showdown between Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao. De La Hoya is listed at -155 while Pacquiao opens at +135.


WHAT THE F U C K

I cant afford to have $ locked up until dec 6, but if this line stays the same, ill be on it like your fat mothers.

I'm all over the DLH bet. I really can't see Pacquiao winning this fight by any means unless Oscar looks terrible. The only thing that worries me is him making 147 and being extremely drained.
