a shot mosley and ortiz?

cotto might have a chance but that cotto was past his prime and had seen wars and a couple of beatings already.

 

Could Oscar have beaten everybody that floyd fought at the time floyd fought them ?... yes, definitely.

Would he have ?... who knows, he might have slipped up, he might not have, too hard to say with any certainty.

 

He lost to AND BEAT a far better version of Mosely, so yes, he would beat the Mosely that floyd beat, especially if you allow him to be about 5 years younger than Shane like floyd was as opposed to just 1 year younger (which he is in reality)

 

We need more posts like this... Neutral. Good post man.

 

Considering the time that Floyd fought them, yes, I could see him going through them undefeated.

 

No, it's impossible. Oscar would've had to fight Oscar and one of them would have lost.

 

Yes. At 130 he'd have stopped Hernandez and Manfredy handily. 38 yr old Mosley would stand little chance and Cotto would have been stopped by any 154 lb version of Oscar.

 

how about you ask this question with a fighter who started their career at 130 and who didn't fight at middleweight

 

mosley wasnt 40 dip ****

 

If Oscar made Mosley fight clean like Floyd did with better tests he wouldn't have been so effective :-(

 

No
Floyd is better than de la hoya, period!

 

Not sure about any version...Cotto would likely be one of his toughest challenges. I favor the Cotto from the Floyd fight over the Oscar from the Floyd fight. But in any case, I agree, DLH can be reasonably expected to come out without losing.

 

Fair on that. Not sure Cotto has the ability to take the jab away like Floyd did but it would have been a good fight similar to the Vargas one imo

 

I actually can't think of anyone on Floyd's resume (that version of) that a prime DLH would lose to.
