    Thats why he tried to pick on Pacquiao, because he knows he couldn't handle any of the prime welters.

    Funny thing is,

    it backfired on him.
    You're right, it did. I never denied that.
    I do however think at 154 he would of beaten Margarito and Cotto pre Pacman.

        At that point, DLH was gassed even more.

        The dude, Cotto, went heads up with Mosley who can crack himself.

        Miguel would have been fine against the part time fighter.

        Matter of fact, I'd also pick Margarito, Williams and Clottey to beat DLH as well.

        People are acting like the DLH of 07 was the same as the DLH of 97.

        Its absurd when you think about it.

        Word 07..lol..

        But Williams HELL YEA!..Margarito and Clottey would have been a GREAT match up wit him..Clottey prolly loses..but Margs SMASHES him but it'd be a toe to toe WAR!..that's the fight I REALLY wanted..in the Estadio Azteca..woulda been DOPE!..

        but exactly 97 DLH WIPES both divisions INCLUDING WILLIAMS!..

          Thank you...an unbiased opionion.

          How the hell can Cotto take Oscars punches at 154 pounds..when Oscar weighed 160 plus on fight night.....

          Cotto was rocked by Judah..Marg...Mosley...all rocked Cotto and Oscar hits harder then all 3.

          Marg ****d him...and Oscar hits harder then MARG.....and is faster and is a better boxer

            No, or else he would have chosen either one of them.

            He went for the smaller guy instead who appeared to be less of a risk.

            Don't forget, it was his retirement fight and he wanted to go out on a good note.


            He retired alright,


            on the wrong riff.

              It's not that easy man. They're totally different fighters. Oscar wouldn't be pressuring Cotto, if anyone was being pressured it'd be Oscar.

              And like I said, Cotto is good at neutralizing the left hook. Don't ask me why, but he is.

              I think it'd be a tough fight, but I think Cotto would outwork him to a decision.

                lol,

                so I guess when an argument goes your way, its unbiased.

                That is why everyone outside of Floyd stans think you're a joke.

                  The Oscar at 147 that fought Pac would of gotten it a lot worse by Cotto. I don't deny that either. We are talking at the weight where Oscar is the most comfortable at though. I just don't see Cotto or anyone KOing him at that weight, even at the late stage of his career.

                      Cotto got rocked by Torres, he got stunned by the rest. Oscar went down against Valenzulea, campanella, Whitake, Quartey and B-Hop

                      Cotto is a heavier hitter than 4 out of those 5 and P4P wise he hits harder than B-Hop
