Some thoughts:

1. Wow.

2. Losing the weight obviously effected Oscar De La Hoya. Physically he seemed weak. Much of his weight was lost in his legs. Losing weight in your legs is good for fly Model girls. Losing weight in your legs is bad for fighters.

3. Oscar De La Hoya seemed to have no game plan. He didn’t use his supposed “size advantage” at all. He was also not physical with Manny.

4. Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach impressed me with their game plan. The side to side and in and out movement completely baffled De La Hoya. Footwork, handspeed and Ring Generalship won this fight.

5. Manny’s lead straight left was the punch of the fight. He took over from Round one with it.

6. Manny’s speed and combination punching was chopping up De La like squid in a Mexican Ceviche, especially in round 7. I have said before that Oscar has had mad trouble with fast, skillful boxers. Tonight was no different. I had no idea that Manny was going to be so intelligent with his speed and not stand toe to toe, thus giving Oscar a chance. Oscar had no chance. That was the difference.

7. De LA is finished as a fighter. I have said before that De La has not defeated a fighter of any significance since Ferocious Fernando Vargas in 2002. He is completely irrelevant as an elite fighter now. The template to defeat him is too easy to follow. I could probably beat him. And I haven’t stepped into the ring since my Golden Gloves days. Save for Entering The Dragon, of course. (I would have to cut back to like a pack of cigarettes a day though.)

8. De La still deserves credit for never ducking anyone and being gracious in defeat. That’s G.

9. De La’s historical place is in question now. Losses to Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Jr, Bernard Hopkins, twice to Shane Mosley, and Felix Trinidad damage his standing. So do the “gift decisions” he was given against Ike Quartey, Pernell Whitaker and Felix Sturm. Especially the Whitaker fight. Whitaker dominated him.

10. Pac-Man has big fights on his horizon. Manny Pacquiao VS Ricky Hatton makes sense. Pac wins that one too. Hell, he probably could beat Michael Phelps, he is that on a roll, even in swimming.

11. Manny Pacquiao VS Floyd Mayweather Jr is the fight that will have to happen. Too much money for it not too.

12. Manny Pacquiao has transcended boxing to be the most important sports figure in the world today. Don’t believe me? Go to Manilla.

13. Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach are the Gs.

Oscar de la Hoya VS Manny Pacquiao Prediction

» 06 December 2008 » In Boxing » 3 Comments

Manny Pacquiao vs. Oscar de la Hoya Prediction

PACQUAIO/DE LA HOYA: OFFICIAL PREDICTION

I’m a firm believer that if you’re a couch potato and you start to take care of yourself late in life, you can get in shape. But I don’t believe that an athlete who was already in decent shape but has simply aged will have the same ability to transform himself this late in life. Oscar has a lot of miles on that 35 year old body. Calzaghe is a year older but we see how fresh he looks after taking a rather scenic route (in comparison) until the twilight of his career. Against Forbes at 150 lbs, I think Oscar looked weakened and although he stayed on his toes for the full 12 rounds, I think it was a bit misleading because he faced a man who isn’t known for punching power. Still, Oscar left the ring badly swollen and despite the victory, he was clearly not what we know him to be. Pacquiao, on the other hand, is coming up in weight and although he looked nice at lightweight (135 lbs), this test will be 12 pounds north. When it all boils down, I think you still have to apply that “WARNING” label on Oscar because a flush left hook would seal the deal.

De La Hoya will make it eventful early on, but soon, Pacquiao’s hand-speed and power will have an accumulative effect as the rounds grind away at the old former champion. Pacquiao will hurt De La Hoya to the body and be able to see the slower punches coming, and be able to attack through De La Hoya’s defense until De La Hoya becomes ineffective.

Pacquiao by unanimous decision.

The big fight between Oscar and Manny is nearly upon us. Here are our predictions:

Wallace Matthews, Newsday: The great thing about beng Oscar is you can beat up little men for big money. On paper, this matchup is a joke and an embarrassment for de la Hoya to fight a guy who not that long ago was fighting at 106 pounds. There’s a reason why they weigh fighters, and it’s because in boxing, size matters. and it will matter greatly in this fight. Pacquiao is an electrifying performer against men his own size, but this is too big an assignment for him. De La Hoya KO 9.

Mike Rose, Newsday: Manny Pacquiao is moving up 12 pounds in weight to fight Oscar De La Hoya at 147 pounds. But after reading comments from Pacquiao and trainer Freddie Roach, I don’t think speed is an issue. I’m confident Pacquiao will retain his speed. De La Hoya has that dangerous left hook to worry about, but I think ultimately Pacquiao will be too fast for De La Hoya to contend with. Plus, Freddie Roach, Pacquiao’s current trainer, trained De La Hoya for the Floyd Mayweather fight. So I think Roach comes up with a strategy to win this fight. Pacquiao wins by a unanimous decision.

Dream Match will go 12 rounds–Dundee
December 04, 2008 04:59:00
Francis Ochoa
Philippine Daily Inquirer

LOS ANGELES—Angelo Dundee has trained some of boxing’s biggest names for some of their biggest fights.

And he still can’t help but get excited about this one.

“This is the fight people want to see,” the 87-year-old great told journalists Tuesday during the formal welcome for Oscar De La Hoya at the MGM Grand, where on Dec. 6 the Golden Boy of the sport meets tireless Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao in a fight dubbed “Dream Match.”

“People are excited because it’s going to be a great fight and both of them are great fighters,” added Dundee, who once trained legendary great Muhammad Ali. “I see a great fight, a great night of boxing. And the year will end on a good note for boxing because of this fight.”

Bob Arum, whose Top Rank is co-promoting the card, took it a step further by calling the bout the “Super Bowl of boxing.”

De La Hoya entered the MGM Hotel to strains of Mexican music and with throngs of supporters clicking away with their cameras. He ascended a makeshift boxing ring that had a gold-plated lion statue in the middle and posed for photographers who covered the event.

He was later joined by Dundee and chief trainer Nacho Beristain.

“I have all the respect for Manny Pacquiao,” said De La Hoya, flashing his trademark dimpled smile. “But this fight is a special event in itself, not just because of who my opponent is. Every time I fight, it is always a special event.”

Pacquiao, on the other hand, arrived at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino riding in the custom-painted bus provided by Top Rank. He was joined by a large entourage that included former Manila mayor and current Environment Secretary Lito Atienza.

“I promise to do my best because Oscar De La Hoya is a great opponent,” he told a swarm of print and television journalists who greeted his arrival.

Dundee said he expects the fight to go the distance belying predictions from both camps that somebody is going to end up on the floor. De La Hoya’s camp has predicted a fifth-round knockout while Pacquiao trainer Freddie Roach said he sees the Golden Boy kissing the canvas in the ninth.

“I think it will go 12,” Dundee said. “They are both very strong and they both can take a good punch. It’s a shame these two guys will have to fight because they’re both good fighters.”

This fight is nearly impossible to predict.

But I will be pulling for the former childhood street kid from the Philippines.

Big Jewel heist in Paris from Harry Winston’s boutique

Big Jewel heist in Paris from Harry Winston’s boutique

A savvy band of jewel thieves, armed with guns and some posing as women, have struck in the heart of the city’s golden triangle of luxury shops, stealing more than €85 million worth of diamonds, rings and watches from a posh Harry Winston boutique.

The brazen $108 million theft Thursday, which some French newspapers quickly branded the heist of the century, reflected a savvy knowledge of the jewelry business, happening during the peak of the holiday season, when jewelry stocks are plentiful.

It was the second time that the boutique on Avenue Montaigne was robbed in the past 14 months and came a little more than a week after Cartier in Paris lost a €635,000 diamond ring to a veiled woman posing as a tourist from Qatar who switched the real gem for a fake.

Robbers in drag steal $100M in jewel heist

The police said that at least four people were involved in the robbery of Harry Winston, which is on a street of deluxe shops near the Champs Élysées that is crowded with boutiques for Chanel, Dior and Gucci. Around closing time at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, the thieves entered and confronted 15 employees. At least two of the robbers were dressed in wigs and women’s clothes, while a fourth accomplice apparently waited outside as the getaway driver, Lévy said.

The boutique has already weathered an earlier audacious robbery of €10 million of goods, in October 2007. At the time, the company offered a €500,000 reward for information leading to the recovery of its diamonds. In April, Harry Winston posted a pre-tax gain of $13.5 million from the settlement of its insurance claim in that earlier robbery.

To date, the record for jewelry theft remains a heist in February 2003, when thieves reaped €100 millions in diamonds from the vaults at Antwerp’s diamond exchange.

All in all a A-.

Points taken away for dressing in drag. Which is only slightly better than dressing in Ed Hardy Shirts.

You should wear custom Savile Row suits on a heist.

Still, not a bad day at the office.

And I was having such a good day today…

(Click Here for The Top Ten Strip Club Mistakes)

“A fire broke out early this morning at the Body Shop, a landmark strip club in West Hollywood. The Los Angeles County Fire Department said the fire was reported at 6:46 a.m. at the club at 8250 Sunset Boulevard.

About 40 firefighters were battling the blaze, said Art Marrujo, a dispatch supervisor with Los Angeles County Fire. Television helicopters showed flames flaring through the roof. Firefighters said they didn’t know what caused the fire.

“It’s too early in the investigation to know,” Marrujo said.

UPDATE: After about an hour, the fire was knocked down at 7:43 a.m., said L.A. County Fire Inspector Frank Garrido. No one was injured. Initial reports showed smoke and fire coming out of the building, with fire in the attic and flames through the roof of the single-story building, Garrido said.”

This place is very dear to my heart. Plenty of title fight nights. Near Scrapes. Close calls too. And mad swoops.

“Firefighters said they didn’t know what caused the fire.”

Always good to light a match and collect insurance.

It makes me happy no Exotic Dancers were injured.

“Nowadays you gotta walk the street and watch your back
Cause brothers with the gats don’t be knowing how to act
They always pull the glock when somebody rocks that knot
And if they get shot they often snitch to the cops
Now tell me this ain’t living foul:
She just had a baby child and shes back to selling cracks vials
On the Ave cause shes addicted to the fast cash
How long will that last before the cops be up in that ass?
But honey-dip don’t wanna listen cause she’s in no position
Now nobody gives a pot to piss in
Her life is stuck and filled with bad luck
So she fucks and fucks to earn another buck
She don’t really care about pride
And she jumps into another ride then committed suicide

Hey Yo, this goes on and on Shaw
Everybody’s doing their own thing
From hooker in the drug slang”

I will be chilling with the WU this weekend.

And swooping fly girls.
