    I don't think the Oscar that fought Floyd looked better than the Oscar that took on Pacquiao, the only difference was weight.

    Pacquiao would have TKO'd both Oscars in my opinion, Oscar was flat footed the entire night vs. Floyd and I have no idea how that would have presented Pacquiao any problems, as Pacquiao feasts on those type of opponents.

    Floyd fought way too defensive in the Oscar fight, and seemed to be waiting until the later rounds to step on the pedal.

    thoughts?

    Oscar comes out strong in the beginning of the 3rd vs. Mayweather , but after that he does absolutely nothing for the rest of the round, he just stands in front of him and can only touch Mayweather when he either goes on the ropes or stands still.

    As below-par Oscar was that night, Pacquiao's incredible performance can't be ignored. His footwork, head movement, defence, accuracy, speed, power and ring generalship, made Oscar look as helpless as he was. That straight left down the middle was a joy to watch.

    oscar is severley weight drained in the Pac fight anyone can see that other than Pac fans. Pac fans seem to think the version of Oscar that Pac owned was the same version that fought Mosley.

    Oscar was healthy against Floyd and weighed around 165-170 fight night.Floyd moved up in weight to face him, no catch weights.

    Pac fans also forget that Floyd also moved through the divisions and wasnt always a Welter weight.

    I disagree. Pacquiao's performance was a lot better though. He trashed Oscar and Mayweather won a debateable decision. People say it was a convincing 117-111 type victory but it wasn't. Pac still beat a very good fighter that night though.

    I actually believe that if pac from today fought Oscar from the floyd fight the outcome would be similair.

    A more lighter DLH is a more faster DLH and that is a fact.

    DLH's reflexes, legs, timing, energy levels etc all look MUCH better at 154. Look at his stance vs Floyd, he is actually trying to fight. Look at the force he is throwing with against Floyd (even tho he isn't landing) compared to the little girly arm punches he throws against Pac. Against Pac he looks like a sick, wounded dog. Anybody who says that this is the same DLH needs glasses.

    Oscar was shot by the time emmanuel fought him, and emmanuel is also a stylistic nightmare for Oscar.
