if oscar can take a true middleweights punch like felix sturm or a light heavyweight's - bhop, pbf is not gonna knock him out.

He couldn't take Bhop's punches because Bhop Knocked him out. And.........No I don't think Oscar will get TKO'd by PBF but PB will win. -
Can Mayweather hurt DLH? In boxing especially at this level anything is possible. Opponents have said that Mayweather hits harder than people give him credit for. DLH could get caught by a punch he never saw coming because of the speed or counter punch. But on the flipside of course DLH can hit Mayweather, but I don't think DLH will be able to mount a consistent attack on him. But DLH could land a big punch that might change the course of the fight because he's a very good fighter.Comment

Floyd Mayweather has stinging kind of pop - meaning if he hits you he stings you, he wont hurt you. The only fighters he's knocked out, or even TKO'd at the top level have been naturally smaller fighters. Look them up if you dont believe me.Comment

i don't believe you and i have his whole professional career on dvd. gatti was bigger than him, so was corrales and he tkoed both of them, whether the corner threw in the towel or not, they were still tkos. i don't know about genero but he tkoed him to. also, phillip ndou was bigger naturally than floyd mayweather and floyd knocked his ass out too, so i do disagree with you.Comment

Genaro started out at 126 also if I remember, Bruseles was very small at 140, Ndou was garbage to begin with, I could go on and on.Comment

Yes, and yes.
Oscar has a very good chin but Floyd can still hurt him to the body, particularly if Oscar is tired. If Oscar is very fatigued and getting hit often, he can be hurt upstairs too, even by the relatively light hitting PBF.
And yes, Oscar can hit Maywather. PBF has been more hittable lately.
The question is how clean Oscar can land on PBF, and if PBF will see the shots coming to take them better.Comment

They were bigger though. Gatti outgrew the lower weight classes long ago, where he was huge in, and was weighing in unofficially on fight night at 160 lbs like 5 years before he fought PBF.
Corrales outweighed Maywather by 10 pounds the night of the fight. Same as Castillo.
They ought to go back to the old rules. Something's wrong when a guy like Miguel Cotto can outweigh his opponent by 17 pounds on the night of the fight, like he did versus Chop Chop.
what's the point of a weight class when one guy enters the ring 2 to 3 divisions heavier than you?Comment

No ****, I hear ya on that last point but Gatti had a bad chin even at 130. He was dropped countless of times. Floyd beat him up but still never dropped him and Gatti never looked wobbly, just incredibly swollen and beat down.
Same with Corrales, who is dropped in almost every fight.
Point is, Floyds self promotion is the only reason why people always say he has pop. I have never really seen him beat down (and I mean really BEAT DOWN) a quality opponent that had a top chin.
And People also forget that Mayweather was in the 150's if I remember correctly when he fought Gatti. He put on a TON of muscle. Kind of a moot point - but something to think about.Comment
