    Hi its my 1st post cas my old account got deleted for some reason:twisted:

    in my opinion,DLH won the second and arguably deserved a draw in the 1st of their WW fights.However who would have won at 135 where both men were considered hard-hitting and exceptionally fast monsters?( more so in Mosley's case)

    on one hand DLH is better skilled and arguably stronger than SSM,however he had a tendency to brawl which was Mosley's speciallity.I'd take DLH to box well and take the early rounds but then get suckered into a fight from which Mosley would take a close and entertaining decision.

    However i feel above lightweight DLH was the better fighter

    Damn good fight..Shane was a beast at 135 but Oscar was huge in that frame at 5'10.5.....Shane SD

    Shane was a steamroller at 135. Shane by stoppage.

    de la hoya as a boxer i think peaked at welterweight, but as a puncher he was greatest in the lower weight classes. i'm pretty confident in picking de la hoya over mosley at lightweight.

    Shane pretty much pulled a hawk vs leonard showing up at all dlh's press conferences calling him out and dlh ran just like leonard.

    Pryor was offered the Leonard fight multiple times and turned it down.

    Everyone was lining up to fight Oscar at that stage...and its not as though Hoya dodged Shane, they did fight if you arent aware.

    All those disagree with you...

    ...Also, are you aware of Mosley's doping scandal?
