    Pac beats Oscar on points, Tito beats Pac by KO while behind on the cards.

    A style thing IMO.

    Are you asking who would win in a DLH vs Tito fight or vs Pac?
    I think you mean DLH vs Tito. Hard to say. Depends on the weight which has always been the issue between the two fighters. Tito's last fight was at 170 whereas DLH's last fight was at 147. If they met anywhere in the middle I would have to say DLH because Tito just won't shrink anymore. DLH would get blasted at 170.

    As to the second question on left hooks, I give it to DLH. His ".45" had more zap and came up unseen from the hip. Tito's right hand is overlooked imo. His left hook toppled the opponent from work usually done by a straight right. Tito's left hook to me was more of a finishing shot.

    Based on what Pac has done at welterweight, I do think either Trinidad or Oscar would beat Pacquiao and the two opponents Pacquiao has beat at welterweight (not counting Oscar's shell of dumbassitude)

    I find the prospect of Pacquiao beating a prime Oscar De La Hoya to be pretty ludicrous myself. The Golden boy would enjoy advantages in height, reach, and could hit very hard with exceptionally fast hands himself. The version Manny eventually defeated was nothing but a shadow, and I find myself thinking Trinidad packed to much power for the likes of Manny also, arguably having carried it up as high as 160lbs during his supposed prime.

    Manny loses to both of them...and very possibly in devastating fashion.

    Both would beat him and as I have said alot of times before, the prime Vargas who went against Tito would've kicked his ass also.

    IMO Prime Oscar beats Pacquiao.I'm not sure how the win would come,but a win never the less.

    The only way i see Tito beating Manny is with a KO.Know way Trinidad can out point the speedy Pacquiao.Trinidad never liked angles,and thats what Manny would be giving him all night long.

    IMO the steroid beast that fought De La Hoya had a better chance at beating Pacquiao than the one that fought Trinidad.

    Who knows. Close great fights that could end in either decisions or knockouts.

    Prime DLH would absolutely crush Pac. Trinidad would KO him after being outboxed for a few rounds.

    Pac is too small to hang with these guys prime for prime, and his defence/chin isn't good enough to try to eke out a points win.

    Both would be great fights. I would pay anything for PPV if someone invented a time machine so these fights could happen. I see Tito getting knocked down at least once in their fight but coming back later to KO Pac but I dont think it would a be brutal Ko though because Pac is smart enough to stay away from Tito. The same thing with Oscar but I dont see Oscar getting knocked down though, his chin was proven bac then.

    Best left hook, many would say Oscar but I go with Tito. Like I have said many times I was at the Tito vs Vargas fight and when Tito hit Vargas with the left hook on the first round that **** sounded hard where I was sitting. Or the one he hit Joppy/Thiam/Reid and even Maurice. Thats not say that Oscar's left hook was bad though.

    Remember the Morales-Pac I fight. Imagine that, but against a way bigger fighter, who is more skilled, faster, more powerful, lighter on his feet, and in his PRIME.

    A Prime Oscar had top level speed, timing, power, and reflexes.

    We're talking about the DLH who was light on his feet, who bounced around his opponents, who had the best combination punching in the game.

    We're talking about a DLH with a tremendous chin, and huge heart. A fighter who was able to use reach, speed, and skill to outbox the hardest hitting WW since Thomas Hearns.

    Oscar in his prime went 12 rounds against the defensive wizard Whitaker. Oscar in his prime went toe to toe with a veteran and hard punching Chavez, he went twelve rounds with a PRIME WW Trinidad.

    Prime for prime there is NOTHING Pac has that would be new to Oscar.

    or pacquiao vs hagler.. people like to make all these B vs C threads but no matter what nobody will ever know cause you cant.. all you can do is compare resumes that's it.. and even that is hypothetical because we all know that the best boxer doesnt win all the time or the guy that's supposed to win according to the experts
