    If DLH wins

    If DLH wins does that make him the 135lbs champ? or does it simply mean he's too ***** to fight major welters like Margs because he can't handle the best in his own division.

        I think at this stage he appears more comfortable at 135.

        His face looked like a skull at the weigh-in for Marquez II.

          I can't give DLH any real credit for working over a little guy.

          Oscar has taken more tough matches than anyone. But this and potentially Hatton after....it's not right.

            Absolutely, DLH has fought some ATG's but he's never beaten a prime ATG. The biggest names he's beaten JCC and Whitaker were both past it when he fought them and guys like Gatti and Quartey are both good action fighters but neither is an ATG. If DLH had won half the fights against the elite prime fighters he fought my opinion of him would be different, but losing to every prime ATG he fought to me doesn't make him great. You have to put DLH a notch below the best of his era. Now he's trying to correct his mistakes by beating an ATG featherweight/super feather, but all that proves is he can't hang with the best his own size and has to go after smaller fighters to boost his ego.

                Oh really? like it or not he lost to Tito because he ran away and handed the fight to Trinidad, and against Mosley he clearly lost the first fight and he did lose the closer second fight.
