Oscar De La Hoya vs Sergio Martinez @154lbs

[sunny31]

Pavlik hit Sergio with plenty of flush shots and couldn't get him going. Chavez Jr couldn't finish him when he was on one leg. I don't think it would be that easy for Oscar to either hurt him or get rid of him.

Its different - I think those guys have thudding power and are probably bigger hitters being naturally bigger men. They can probably hit a spot on a bag for example with more power and force than Oscar. But that isn't what necessarily hurts a fighter. Plus Chavez did still hurt Sergio.

I have always felt Sergio was vulnerable though and I think Oscar is a sharp, accurate, fast puncher who can set traps, land counters, or powerful leads. That is why I see him hurting Sergio. He may not finish him off, Sergio has a big heart, but those moments would probably be enough to at least swing the fight in his direction if not lead to a stoppage of Sergio.

Man that's a hellova match up.

I would lean very slightly towards ODLH by close UD.
