    I absolutely agree. A 147 or 140 pound Oscar beats 130 pound Floyd hands down

    that was Oscar when he was younger though. When Oscar fought Floyd, he had already won a MW title and everything

    I'll have to go with Floyd mainly because he has been dominate since he started. Many will probably pick Oscar, because of the hard time Floyd seem to have had with him when they met, but one should keep in mind the size difference. A prime Oscar at 147 would of been a good fight, but I believe Floyd defense would of been the defining factor in that fight, and Floyd punches would of had more of an effect on a smaller, lighter Oscar.

    Since when does Floyd fall for jab/ feints?

    Sure I'll play ball.. a prime DeLaHoya beats a 31 year old Maywaether, lol. Ok.

    Sorry guy but Oscar barely won 2-3 rounds with the deck stacked in his favour. His only weapon that was effective against PBF was the Jab . . . until Floyd neutralized it. At his Prime he MIGHT win one or two more rounds. so at best PBF still wins at least 7 rounds, unless you are in love with Oscar and ineffective aggression vs Floyds efficient pin point accuracy. Oscar was a very good fighter but too many guys have mancrushes on him to see the truth sometimes.

    what fight were you watching. As im nuetral to both guys and had Floyd winning just.

    Look Ive seen the stats and all that but it was misleading to say the least.
    I had the fight 115-113 Mayweather i would hardly call that just winning 2 rounds at best.

    Floyd beats any version of Oscar.Oscar has always gassed or took of the pressure. In fact a younger quicker oscar would have more trouble because he would be too agressive and out punch himself while throwing his game plan out the window. Another thing, people keep mentioning the Jab and how if Oscar Jabbed more he would beat him. That is complete bull****. The reason Oscar was hesitant and stopped throwing the jab was because Floyd was countering Oscar's jab with Counter right hands. The jab worked well for Oscar early but Floyd adjusted to it. The same thing would have happened if Oscar was in his prime. Floyd beats a prime Oscar any time.

    Prime Oscar would edge a prime Mayweather and knock the version that got his nose busted up by a re-tread Cotto squarely the **** out.

    ODL was winning easy with his jabs untill he stopped using it. There was going to be a rematch but Floyd backed out from it. Prime DLh would win.
