    Hopkins-DLH was a mediocre fight.

    DLH-Mayorga was an entertaining beatdown.

    DLH-Chavez I had some value as Chavez were merely past his prime and not shot IMO, and in his ideal weight class, but the rematch was more entertaining.

    DLH-Trinidad was a mediocre fight, very dissapointing.

    DLH-Gatti was an entertaining beatdown.

    DLH-Mosley I was a very entertaining fight. The rematch was alright.

    DLH-Vargas was an excellent fight. A rare case where the fight lived up to the hype and maybe even the PPV price.

    DLH-Carr was fairly entertaining, as was the fight with Coley.. DLH looked very good against Gonzalez and Ruelas, I'd say those are worth watching.

      Pretty much was Thread Stealer though, except if you like watching the a tactical battle. I really liked watching Hopkins De La Hoya. Hopkins pretty much made DLH fall into his plan towards the end.

      My least favorite out of all of those would be Mosley 2 and then my favorite would be the vargas fight.

          I highly recommend DLH vs Mayorga, I can watch this fight over and over again. Be sure to watch the countdown too.

          I thought his fight with Hopkins was boring. His fights with Chavez were great. The fight against Trinidad was more or less a boxing lesson. His fights with Mosley were entertaining in the same way Pavlik-Taylor II was entertaining, you'd have to appreciate it. I haven't seen the Gatti fight, but the Vargas fight was pretty good as well. I liked George Foreman as a commentator for that fight even though he seemed to favor DLH.

              If you want to see KO's, just look at Delahoya's young boxing career. Guy was ko'ing fighters left and right.

                Oscar De La Hoya's February 13, 1999 bout against Ike Quartey was a very good fight. The Golden Boy and Bazooka both exhibited great power, speed, skills, and heart in the fight. De La Hoya received the split decision victory, but I thought that the decision could have just as easily been given to Quartey.

                  dela hoya-Quartey is my favorite, if there's someone who really put oscar on the seat of his pants in a legitimate knockdown, its Ike, most say dela hoya took a dive against hopkins and the early knockdowns in his young career were a result of being overconfident and getting careless. I still feel quartey was robbed of victory.
