Oscar De La Hoya v Jose Napoles at147lbs?

Napoles butchers Oscar...like he did Cokes, but Oscar wouldn't cut the 15 round distance.

 

Jose by points but a good, enjoyable fight. Oscar is tough but Jose has the edge here.

 

Napoles. I don’t think Oscar has the stamina to last 15 and Napoles was too slick for him.

 

Luis Rodriguez would disagree with you , another boxer that would dismantle ODLH

 

That’s a mismatch brother.

 

this for me as well .... right on the money again RC

 

Great point, and oh so true surfinghb!!

 

Uh, ...yes...and just how in the hell do you equate those three with Mantequilla? I mean,, ....seriously???

 

I favor the better skilled Napoles, but some here are seriously underrating
Delahoya.
I see a tough fight early on, with Delahoya's height, Reach, speed, and educated
jab causing Napoles some early concerns (Especially if he gets cut).
Napoles would began to pull away from Delahoya the 2nd half of the match
because he was a better fighter from rds 8-15 rds than Delahoya
was, who tends to unravel against great competition in long fights.
Napoles would get his distance ,and began to put on a classic counter
punching exhibition that would make Delahoya gun shy.
Napoles wouldn't blow Delahoya out the water, but he'd win a
UD if the fight isn't stopped by a unfortunate bad cut.

 

Oscar on points

 

Great breakdown
