    If the fight is at 154 & a rehydration clause of 160 is enforced, DLH can make it a good fight. The same odds as DLH vs Mundine

    At 154, those fights are also interesting
    • DLH vs Amir Khan
    • DLH vs Kell Brook
    • DLH vs Adrien Broner
    • DLH vs Paulie Malinaggi
    • DLH vs Timothy Bradley

    He was far to tal to fight at Jr lightweight, he even looked to frail at 135 getting floored by low level fighters at that weight.

    Brook looks far too sharp for DLH now, no 48 year old could beat him right now.

    That's a myopic point of view.
    DLH gets short-changed when it comes to his resume. He didn't win all his fights but he also had the toughest CV of just about anyone I can think of. He was in a catch-22 situation.

    When you take everything into consideration, in terms of ATGness, DLH is right up there with his two most famous contemporaries(Floyd and Pac),

    Don't let your hate for DLH's outside the ring antics cloud your judgement.

    nobody can criticise oscar's resume, it's ATG, but it's ridiculous to suggest that a fighter who lost all of the biggest fights of his career ranks alongside pac and floyd.

    i don't care what oscar does outside the ring, just like i don't care what floyd did.
    i'm judging on boxing achievements alone.

    so are you mexican?

    You lost me at "he lost all his biggest fights..."

    Pac lost more fights than DLH, and some to lesser fighters.

    So are you Black or Filipino?

    ah yes, but pac won many fights against some outstanding fighters.
    if you think vargas and quartey top pac's best wins, please let me know.

    now, the fact you replied defensively about being asked if you were mexican tells me you probably are, and in response to your question regarding if i am black...i am as white as the virgin snows in the swiss alps on a crisp winter's morning.

    the next time you want to accuse someone of being myopic simply because they disagree with you, try to make sure that flag that is clouding your vision is put away first.

    you sure are.
    you still can't answer my question regarding your nationality, can you?

    If your assertion is that my opinions of DLH are clouded simply because I'm Mexican then "myopic" was the perfect word to describe you.

    In which case, continuing this little tit for tat is as pointless as trying to convince an SJW that not all white people are white supremacists.

    Manny beat big name fighters the only big names DLH beat were Quartey and Whitaker in a negative fight, Manny beat Barrera, Morrales, JMM and Cotto.

    You seem biased towards DLH, his career really wasn`t that great.

    Look up DLH's resume again, and if you can only bring yourself to barely give him credit for two of his victories then you should consider your own bias.
