    He would be favored against Wright. I wouldn't make him a big favorite but I think he can beat Winky in a close fight because Winky tends to be too defensive.

      a fully motivated DLH Beats Winky easy in my opnion. Winky has been called underrated for so long he has become shamelessy overrated. Winky up until Mosley had lost ever time he had ever stepped up.

      DLH couldn't handdle the size and strenght of Hopkins, but Winky is not a big strong pressure fighter he is a slick boxer and DLH can outbox him

              Even if the "Great" Roy Jones Jr went down there?

                Oscar's days as middleweight are done, he goes back to junior middle and would give Winky a very good fight (and lose to a superior skilled fighter).

                  Humm, that would be a good one, the only person i can see beating J. Taylor is Tarver. but just like roy thats 2 different weight classes. but no one in the Div right now can handle Taylor.

                    Harry Connick Jr is awesome bro! Saw him in concert in Los Angeles about 12 years ago. As for DLH, I think he should stick it out in the middleweight division. Give it another go at Hopkins and if he loses then he should reevaluate his career.

                      ****ing lucky bastard!
                      I haven't had a chance to see him live yet.

                      That's what I was thinking.
                      I think it's why DLH didn't do so well and was taken out by a weak body shot.
                      His body wasn't as hard as it should have been.
                      He managed to hold his own against Hopkins for a while though.
                      Which means if he just trains more and has time to settle in, he could do well in that division.
