    DLH at 135-40 knocks out PBF cold.

    Prime 147 Hoya wins by UD or late TKO.

    HAHAHA i love how floyd whooped a great shape oscar with a great trainer but people are still talking about 'prime' oscar and weight classes !
    Floyd beats oscar at any prime, any weight class ! The proof is in the pudding, watch the fight, oscar won 3 rounds at MOST !
    No way does he ever beat floyd, Floyd has the better skills, the superior ring intelligence, better resume, better defence and better legacy !
    Hear what oscar has to say at the mosley mayweather post press conference... ! LOL and still people say 'oh but oscar could have won if....blah blah blah...' enough with the bull**** !

    I think DLH was at his absolute best at 140. He's underrated H2H there. I'd back that version to beat Floyd.

    I think it would still be a very close fight (this one worthy of being close), and I do give the edge to Oscar. I think he was faster, sharper and much more dangerous in his prime. The success he had in his fight with Floyd would have been amplifide in his prime and he wouldn't have slowed down as much, although him stopping the jab is something that could have still happenned to him in his prime vs Floyd. I think it's a tough call because of Mayweather's style, and smarts, but I do think Oscar was a very dangerous welter so it's hard to tell.

    Oscar would shut him out. Look what an old, over the hill Oscar was able to do with Floyd and it's pretty obvious. Floyd is overrated at welter. Prime Mosley would KO him as well. A 40 year old , near shot Mosley almost took his head off.

    IMO, a prime 147lbs ODLH could've beaten Mayweather and Pac. DLH had/has a good chin, had lots of heart, was fast as well, and had power on his punches.

    Floyd beat DLH at any point in his career. He schooled his ass once. he would have done it at anytime. he's just a more skilled fighter.

    I don't see how anyone thinks "he couldn't possibly beat" prime ODLH when prime ODLH got a gift against Sweet Pea. Seriously, I think Mayweather would mount a much better and/or dominant offense. Mayweather is more of a reactive fighter. The more you press I am sure he would rise to the occasion.

    It still would have been a hard fight to say 100% for FMJ. WW is not Mayweather's prime.
     
  13. Floyd puts on a clinic if this takes place at 147.

    I really do think some people underestimate how 'BAD' Floyd can be, he can be a pretty mean dude, just look at the Gatti fight. I think Floyd did have/has a genuine dislike for Oscar and would just mesmorise him with his skill and box his way to a UD win by clearer margins.

    Although I can see why people vote Oscar, just not for me sorry!

    Although completely off topic I do believe Tommy Hearns would of defeated Floyd.
