    thats why he is a better fighter overall

          Yea, people really forget how great DLH was in his prime. I always said, if you want to learn how to shoot the basketball, watch Ray Allen shoot the rock, if you want to learn how to box fundamentaly, watch Oscar DeLa Hoya in his prime.

              getting knocked down is overrated,it counts as a point off but when you get up to win it doesn't matter.tito's got bambi legs,he always has.

                The thing about De La Hoya was that he really could do it all, except for fight on the inside for an extended period of time or be physical. De La Hoya wasn't superhuman like Roy Jones or Tyson, but what he did was do all of the fundamentals solidly and made adjustments early in fights when need be. Plus he has some head on his shoulders.

                    I think Tito got good chin and legs. I think he himself knockdown on purpose to make fighter go toe2toe so they think they could KO him but actully at every knockdown he was in most of the he stood up unhurt or even doesnt look like it.

                    As for the left hook Tito has far better left hook. He uses whole his body to execute it from leg to abs to back to shoulder to his hands

                      his legs are always shaky in the first couple of rounds,maybe it's nervous energy.
