Let's have a closer look here...a poster of legendary Martial Artist Bruce Lee next to his poster, displayed in Manny's aprtment. This goes to show that Manny is indeed a big fan of Bruce Lee. I always likened Manny Pacquiao as the new Bruce Lee (see my previous articles on it here)

OSCAR DE LA HOYA & His Left Shoulder Problem - Could this be Oscar's Achilles Heel ? or JUST A DECEPTIVE TACTIC by Oscar ???

Reports say that Oscar De la Hoya's rotator cuff muscle on his left shoulder has a slight tear which causes some left jabbing problem seen in Oscar's previous fight with Floyd Mayweather, Jr. This could also be the reason why Freddie Roach has popularly uttered the words "Oscar can't pull the trigger anymore" whoa !

Watch the video of Oscar De la Hoya wearing a neoprene shoulder support (which helps prevent re-injury or burden on the shoulder joint) on his left shoulder

For all I know, this could be Oscar's strategy to fool Manny's camp into thinking that the old man has left shoulder problems...anything could happen. Why did they want to show this shoulder injury in the first place specially at YouTube for all to see. Beware Manny, this could be a ploy, a Trojan Horse !

KAYE ALIPIO : 12th Castoff from SURVIVOR PHILIPPINES - Video November 26, 2008

Anything is possible in Survivor Philippines...Rob didn't voted out Kiko but Kiko gave the cursed Black Pearl to Rob, Charisse didn't voted out Veronica but Veronica gave the cursed Black Pearl to Charisse. Same situation happened again last night when Kaye who was voted off and she gave the cursed Black Pearl to Cris although Cris didn't voted out Kaye. It goes to show that paranoia abounds the Thai island in all angles, "keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer" (from The Godfather)

Here's a video from the episode aired November 26, 2008

Day 32: Confusion abounded the Chalam tribe as various castaways planned to vote out either Zita, Kaye or Charisse. Passing time before the visit to Tribal Council, Cris further improved the roof of the shelter. Later, Zita, Kaye, Charisse, and even Cris wore fancy pearl headbands so they would later complement Veronica's stylish entrance as a jury member in the previous Tribal Council, with Cris borrowing some of his female tribemates' tops. But no stylish entrances happened at Tribal Council and Paolo even reminded Cris to be serious as the latter wore Kaye's bikini upon entering the Tribal Council area before taking it off and donning his shirt. While the women worried that one of them would be voted out, it was Kaye who was eliminated, 4-1. Before having Kaye's torch was snuffed, she was given the choice of the Cursed and White Pearls. She chose the Cursed Pearl and gave it to Cris. Cris allegedly threw the black pearl away leaving him vulnerable with two votes against him on the next Tribal Council.

Hey Guys, Meet the MANNY PACQUIAO Non-Believers or, Should I Say, Clownz

Roger Mayweather, a former champion and member of the flamboyant boxing clan, is belittling Manny Pacquiao’s skills, saying the Filipino champion doesn’t stand a chance against Oscar dela Hoya.

He said the Pacquiao-Dela Hoya “Dream Match” on Dec. 6 at the shining MGM Grand in Las Vegas is nothing but a mismatch.

“Do I think it’s a mismatch? No. I don’t think it’s a mismatch. I know it’s a mismatch,” the 47-year-old champion of the ‘80s, also known as the “Black Mamba,” told fightfan.com in a video interview.

The brother of top-notch trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. and uncle of former pound for pound king Floyd Jr. said Dela Hoya, older at 35 but taller at 5’10, is too much for the Filipino southpaw.

“Dela Hoya has fought everybody. And Pacquiao? What’s he gonna do with Dela Hoya?” said Mayweather.

“He doesn’t have the skills like Dela Hoya. And he’s a guy coming from 115 pounds? What’s he gonna do with Dela Hoya?” he said.

Pacquiao, younger and faster at 29, will give away four inches in height and six inches in reach when he climbs the ring against Dela Hoya.

“Size don’t mean a difference when you have tremendous skills. But when you have average skills and average speed… He (Pacquiao) can fight guys his size but Dela Hoya is too big for him,” he added.

As the architect for some of the greatest fighters of all-time, including Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard and George Foreman, Angelo Dundee's name is synonymous with excellence. Now, the legendary trainer will look to impart his wisdom on boxing's reigning superstar - Oscar de la Hoya - as a special consultant for the "Golden Boy" for his December 6th super-fight with Manny Pacquiao.

Angelo Dundee, the legendary trainer from Philadelphia, thinks there’s no way Manny Pacquiao can beat Oscar dela Hoya in Dec. 6 in Las Vegas. “Can Manny win that fight? “I don’t think so, I really don’t”.

*************************

Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer has predicted that the golden boy Oscar de la Hoya will knock out Filipino ring idol Manny Pacquiao in the 6th round of their much-awaited megabuck fight on Dec. 6 in Las Vegas -- and along the way, Pacquiao's trainer Freddie Roach, will also get laid.

*************************

Former heavyweight contender and Filipino ring idol Manny Pacquiao’s conditioning coach at Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Gym for several big fights in the past – Justin Fortune - says the clash with Oscar De La Hoya is “a bad fight.”

In an overseas telephone conversation with www.insidesports.ph, Standard Today and Viva Sports, Fortune said “I don’t think it’s a good fight because De La Hoya is a bigger guy, he’s stronger and is very smart. He is also a good boxer.”
