Oscar De La Hoya says the speed of Manny Pacquiao is unbelievable. Pacquiao stopped the retired former champion last December in what was considered a major upset. Pacquiao battered De La Hoya during the fight, using his fast hands and quick movement to overwhelm the much bigger opponent. The win made Pacquiao a mega-star in the sport.

“Pacquiao is good, there’s no doubt about it,” De La Hoya said to Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports. “And he’s fast. I thought there were 10 of him in there. I’m looking here and he’s over there. And I’m reacting to a punch from this way and there’s another coming at me from that way.

While he praises Pacquiao's speed, he says the Filipino fighter does not hit hard and never seriously hurt him during the contest.

“Truthfully, he didn’t hit hard. He didn’t really hurt me. But the punches were so fast and they were coming from everywhere, it felt like there were 10 of him, seriously,” De La Hoya said.
