There are both over the hill in my view, While Shane i think might present a more completive fight for Floyd i think Shane and DLH both have lost the hunger to be what they once where.
i agree that Shane will pose bigger problems, because of his mixed speed and power, and his ability to box and fight.. His speed will do a big difference, meaning he will be able to catch Mayweather, unlike De La Hoya.
shane is not a better boxer than dlh...shane has no jab and no defense..yea he has the ability to fight but he was never a "boxer"..also shanes speed has diminshed alot..he was beat to the punch by cotto all fight
Shane, but not by so much (and mainly because Floyd hasn't fought him yet, so there's the "unknown"). Considering Floyd would earn possibly an extra $10m fighting Dela Hoya, I can see why he made that choice. Either or, both aren't TOO much of a threat to Floyd, these days. I think Cotto's his biggest threat outside of 154 pounders and above, and I see him (Cotto) losing a mid-to-wide decision. Even though its all about styles, I can't see Shane doing much better. And we all know what happened with DLH last time, which I think is gonna get worse the next time. What's the underlying point that's trying to be proven in this threat? That Floyd chooses the path of least resistance again, or is it that Floyd's W over Oscar is not as good as Cotto's W over Shane? Or maybe it's a bit of both, mixed with a couple of other little underlying points (which I would love to know)?
You suck off Fraud like youre on his payroll, do you at least charge extra when you perform the "Rusty Trombone".
Dude you're living in the Pre Forrest Mosley days. The Mosley you're talking about hasn't been seen since Adrian Stone.
Castillo wasn't a better boxer, nor was he a jabber with great defense. You seem to be stuck oin this criteria of who gives Floyd a tougher fight, but it doesn't seem to be based on anthing tangible. You also aren't taking into consideration activity, which can greatly effect a fighters fight. Aside from a fight w/ Vargas and Mayorga, DLH has NOT looked very good in a LONG time. And he does tire out.
