UD for the Leonard. Oscar would not be Kayoed for he is a solid Welter. Maybe a SD if the ring is tiny.
Ray would box the hell out of DLH - staying away from his Left Hook. Ray wins by UD. This would have probably been a good fight too.
Leonard wins. Oscar does most things at a high level, but Ray did them even better. Oscar would be competitive for the first half of the fight, then Ray would pull away.
atschnut:nut The Oscarsexaul supreme..Leonard wins the early rounds ODH brings in a mid round streak(but still does not win all the rounds but just is more competitive).... Leonard beats him down late in the fight. ODH more beat up then he has ever been.
Yeah...DLH is skilled and solid enough that I think he's competitive with most, or all, fighters around his weight class in his prime. But fighting Leonard really close? DLH is good in nearly all areas of boxing, but Ray was better in almost all of those areas. And Leonard has a big advantage in adapting and stamina.
Leonard wins every round up to the stoppage. Leonard is better than Oscar in every facit of the game. Leonard has the uncanny ability to adapt to anything that starts to work from his opponent. Oscar has no adaptability because he's just downright dumb! He has no answer. Defense, offense, adaptability, ring knowledge and stamina all belong to Sugar Ray. I would look for a stoppage by the referee by round 4 or 5. Let's go into the Twilight Zone and say the bell for round 9 has just rung and Oscar has somehow surrived. Leonard is at his best in the late rounds with his remarkable stamina. Oscr is through after 8 always fading away in the late rounds. Can you imagine how Oscar would do if fights still went 15? Oscar is just a good fighter who had his career very carefully managed by Arum fighting Trinidads leftovers and guys who belonged in a weight class lower than when they fought Oscar. Oscar is a very good fighter but Sugar Ray is a legend in the game. There is no comparision. None at all!
