This obviously isn't an MMA topic but both are still worth discussing because they are great fighters.
Who will win and why?
Pacquiao is P4P best fighter in the world of boxing. Oscar De La Hoya is a legend.
Oscar will be fighting at ~160 lbs. come fight night w/ Manny coming in at ~145-150. The fight is officially sanctioned for 147 lbs.
I'm rooting for Pacquiao because I believe he's as fast if not faster than Floyd Mayweather hand-speed wise and has power punches that rival much heavier fighters.
Oscar on the other hand is +15 lbs....and has an indestructible chin.
Regardless of the outcome, I believe that De La Hoya lost by challenging someone 3-4 weight divisions lighter than him.
What do you guys think?
