    If Oscar was younger he would have took those later rounds

    What weight? When we say prime are we talking 135-140? If so then Mayweather by decapitation!

    Oscar would outwork floyd and win by 3 or 4 rounds

    The best day of DLH's career, Floyd would take him apart like a cheap watch.

    LOL Floyd couldn't even do that in his prime to an old way past it De La Hoya.

    Oscar gave floyd a tough fight when he was half his best. He'd beat Floyd's ass prime for prime, probably by tko.

    You mistook Oscar's energy for effectiveness. When Floyd timed Oscar's predictable punches, he landed the clean accurate shots. Oscar couldn't vary his offense; 'n he was left exhausted, not by age, but impotence.

    Silly question, Oscar had the deck completely stacked for him and still got outclassed. Anyone who thinks it was close either hates floyd or is in love with Oscar.

    Oscar was at his best at 147 and stylistically Mayweather still takes him apart. Oscar would always try to press the matter and would use ineffective aggression . . . making the fight look closer than it really was. a 150lb floyd stopped an Iron chinned Oscar in his tracks at 154. both at 147 floyd has more than enough pop to keep him honest. anything below 147 it is even worse for Oscar . . . 154 is where he had his best shot.

    130-135 Even Up
    140- Oscar (He was at his best with Rivero at the helm)
    147- Floyd
    154- Floyd

    Floyd isn't as good as prime DLH no way, Floyd looks better than he is because his opponents have been lesser.

    Could you imagine what a prime dlh would have done to Guerrero :patsch
