Pac of the Hatton fight vs Oscar of the JCC I fight

Hearns came to fight. I am not sure Oscar could have and would have even tried to take Hagler's punches. The reason Tommy was knocked out was because he was too willing to take punches. But Oscar did not want to. In the end, Oscar's resume is good but he lost to every great guy he fought. His legacy is rather weak compared to how he wanted it. The 1990's guys in general will not hold up as well as th 1980's guys. There is something to be said for coming to fight.

 

Oscar. just as fast, bigger, stronger and more versatile

 

ODH and Pac at 140 prime for prime would be a good fight. If Pac boxed and used his foot speed I could see him possibly winning a decision. But if Pac got into a fight with that version of ODH I think ODH chin would hold up and Pac would not be able to take the left hook.

 

Pacquiao by SD, Oscar taking it by SD is VERY possible too but I'll still with Pac in a tough close battle.

 

Pac's "straighter shots" would have been nullified by DLH's longer reach, quicker and more powerfull jabs.

If Morales and JMM were able to reach PAC, DLH would have had no problem.

And for all those pointing out to DLH's endurance, that was never really an issue at 140!

 

Don't be fooled by videos like these. These are highlights. Though I think Oscar had more early round KOs. And I still take prime Oscar against Pac, but no guaranty. Thing is, we'll never know. But as per Roach, Pac would take Oscar past and present anytime.

Oscar was my favorite in his prime, but besides JCC, some [or most] of his big fights he lost.

 

De La Hoya by brutal knockout and I'm absolutely serious about it. Too much speed, too much power, too much talent. DLH's pre-Tito performances are the most underrated in boxing. To PacMan's credit, who now ranks higher than De La Hoya ATG, that version of the Golden Boy destroys my man Kostya Tszyu, easily outpoints Floyd Mayweather Jr., KTFO Ricky Hatton, beats the **** out of Miguel Cotto and so on. Think like this: PacMan always was a very strong guy, let's say 'lightweight strong' even in those lower divisions, that was an important advantage, and he carried his physical gifts to LWW as well. De La Hoya was 'welterweight strong', that combined with his blinding speed, great power and very different, more mobile style is just all bad for Pacquiao.

 

I like Pac's highlight versions than ODLH's...ANYDAY!!

 

Oscar was immense but the way Pac is right now I just don't know.

Flip a coin?

 

Oscar at this point was a complete fighter.
He had speed, movement and one-punch ko power.
It would take a very special fighter to beat this Oscar.
His jab should be enough to discourage Pacquiao in this fight, before a left-hook ends it within five rounds.

 

"DLH lost most of his big fights" is something someone who knows very little about boxing might say because he heard someone else say it.



Let's take a quick glance at DLH's "big fights" and see how he fared:
(keep in mind that i'm only going by what's official to avoid an extra hundred posts debating the fights that were "gifts" or "robberies"!

Also keep in mind that I ommitted some fighters (ie. Hernandez, Gatti,
Campas, Leija etc) that might be considered "BIG WINS" on other fighter's resumes!

Wins: Ruelas, Gonzalez, Camacho, Chavez (2X), Whitaker, Quartey, Vargas, Mayorga, Castillejo, Sturm.


Losses: Trinidad, Mosley(2x), Hopkins, PBF, Pac.

 

No pun intended:think

 

All I know for sure is JCC wouldve KTFO Ricky.

 

Maybe it's because I'm a big Oscar fan but ODLH.

 

Sorry folks . . . I'm picking DLH.
