Delahoya By Tko At 154. (catches Him Being Cute With That Left)
Delahoya By Md At 147. (lands The Bigger Shots, Hurts Him Twice)
Long Live The Golden Boy.
Smokin' is right about DLH. The guy is injured and doesn't even want to fight anymore. Still I think Mosley is pretty far gone too as beating Vargas, the epitome of a shot fighter, does not do it for me. Mosley isn't as far gone as DLH but he will get his ass kicked by Mayweather if they fight.
I'd like to see Mayweather vs. Baldomir, Margarito, or Hatton. MAYBE Spinks at 147. Mosley and ODLH are just names at this point. I mean Mosley can still fight, but he has no business challenging the #1 P4P man in the sport.
I am in total agreement with your analysis and I heard the same thing out of the DLH camp about weight. The reason I think Shane and Floyd would be a better fight is that I like Floyd at 147 better than 154. At 147 both have good speed and if Shane is throwing the combinations it has the makings of an exciting fight. I think Floyd does box, box, box against DLH and wins a decision. It won't be easy but if he can avoid the big punch I don't think he will have a problem out-slicking Oscar at this point in Oscar's career.
I think Oscar would have the advantage at 154lbs. and like i said Floyd already doesn't look as fast as he did at 140lbs. You saw what happened to Shane when he moved up to 154. Fighters like Shane and Floyd who depend so much on speed tend to lose that the more they move up in weight. I think that Oscar would have the advantage at 154, and like I said I don't think that Floyd will bea able to hurt him. If Oscar catches him Floyd could go down.
PBF vs. De la Hola, only because we have seen Mosely dominated before, no one has able been able to do that to DHL. (except for Tito in the last 5 rounds)
lol
last time I checked you need to land punches to dominate someone, not just stalk them!
otherwise the best you can do is "make them look like fools" like pea or pep could do.
we have seen oscar do much worse than against tito when fighting mosley (1) and hopkins. and even against whitaker.
I would like to see oscar vs floyd.
then floyd would have got his big payday and hopefully fight EVERYONE.
I won't deny Sugar Shane is in the twilight of his career...but I also stand by it that he has something left in the tank. I think he's naturally a bit bigger than Floyd and combined with his speed it could still be a nice fight at 147. My original hopes had been for that fight to be a precursor to anything with Oscar...now I just want to see Floyd fight anyone interesting.
I don't think it would be smart for Floyd to go up to 154 at all. At 147 I think he can beat Oscar. I'd like to see Mayweather and Mosley at 147. Both have great handspeed could be a good fight.

I don't want to see Floyd beat up on either of these guys who are both passed their primes. I want to see him fight Margarito or Hatton, someone who might actually pose a threat to him.
I apologize, maybe it's wrong of me to want to live in the present and not five years ago when Shane Mosley was one of the best fighters in the world. LOL!
Let's see Floyd fight someone young and dangerous, not old and injured.
I would rather see De La Hoya. When this fight happens,it will be at 154lbs. Oscar has already said there will be no catch weight if Floyd wants to fight him. Floyd is already a small welter, and at jr.middle I think Oscar has achance of beating him. I would like to see Mosley at welter, and i think this would be a good fight. I don't think that Floyd could hurt or put either one of them down, he would have to box,box,box. I think people are wrong if they think that Oscar or Shane wouldn't have a chance against Floyd. I don't think it is out of the question that one or both of them could win this fight.

At what weight? If I had to see a fight at 154 I would choose DLH because he is more comfortable there. If it was Shane I would choose 147 for the same reason. If these are my choices then I choose Shane because I think he has a better chance of beating Floyd. But if I wanted to see a masterful performance then I would choose DLH because Floyd will never look better than fighting against his dad (DLH's trainer). Both Mosley and DLH are a little past their prime so I would rather see Floyd take on guys closer to his age that are considered elite. Margarito, Cotto, Hatton etc.

If you had to pick one and one only to actually happened what would it be? Floyd vs De La Hoya or Floyd vs Mosley?

To be honest, right now I would love to see Hatton and Baldomir go at it. I think that their styles match up in such a way that the fight would be a "war of attrition" and would come down to which man wants it the most.
Plus, I think it'd be a non-ppv matter.
