Prime ODLH vs Prime SRL at 154

[Paragon]

Leonard by a wide UD

[Dynamite Kid]

Ha Ha one vote for DLH and you can guess who that is cant you.

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

You mean Mosley on steroids? I think Oscar in his prime could pretty much beat anyone. That includes SRL. Duran beat SRL, why wouldn't Oscar?

Uh...............no.

Leonard was one of the greatest fighters ever to lace up gloves. He out speeds DLH and could possibly KO him but I would say he dominates him in a 12 round UD.

[Junito-Rulez]

srl ko 1 faster than tyson ko'd spinks...

No way, ODH is not chinny at all, he has a legit granite chin. Even weight drained when he got his ass handed to him by Pacquiao, he was never hurt to the point he could get knocked down.

SRL would outclass him but not KO him round 1, that's an insane statement. DLH has nice skills and mad power at 154, he would force SRL to box and use his superior speed.
SRL takes the UD.

[Jim Jeffries]

154 gives SRL an even bigger advantage than at 47, where DLH already has more than he can handle. Don't see a KO though, Oscar had a pretty decent beard in his day. You'd have to have this match up at 140 or so in the hopes that SRL would be weight drained.

Oscar handled a drugged up Mosley. I think Oscar can handle a dancing soft hitter queen

Its obvious either you hate ray, or you never saw ray at Welter. He was so soft a hittr, that he stoped Benetiz, hearns, Kalule and Lalond..rom 147-168 all had never been stopped before, almost all of them never even dropped.

As or DLH Ray....this is not even a fight. Look at DlH, he never once had a top noth quality win clearly vs the fighter he fought, much less arguably a top 10 all time pound per pounder in peak form at a peak weight.

What many forget, is how dominate ray was. He did not have the avg to semi avg challenger and defenses. What he did against these bums was imply ko price (who beat cuevas and palomio) in one, Davey boy green a hatton like fight..he brutally ko'd him...Bruce curry stopped in 1-2...No he did not have man of these fights, that fights with long lines of defenses have that bulk up their resume and many go WOW....look. In Ray leonard short career, he only beat 4 all time top pound per pounders, before he retired he never was dropped.

Yes duran moved up and beat him, in one of the best welter fights ever. Howver it was a fight where ray, WILLINGLY chose to put his speed, angles and boxing skills in the closet and go toe to toe. Any on here that says Duran forced him to fight this way, is ignorant. All you have to do is look at the tape, Ray not one time TRIED, to dance, move, use angles..etc. He slugged it out. ****** game plan. However, he only lost that fight b 4 total points between all 3 judges cards. One round scored differntly n his favor he wins. Then he made duran quit in the next fight.

At welter not to many people ever would have been able to deal with a peak tommy hearns..And ray stopped him. No not this false story of Ray was getting his ass whipped and came from behind. Look at the fight. Ray almost stopped tommy in the 6th ,7th, 8th, 13th, then finally in the 14th he did. By today's standards those would have been 10-8 rounds and thus the fight would have been even going into the last round....You do the math. Dunde pushed this issue after the fight, and guess what, he won... There was an investigation into why rounds 6 and 7 and 13 where not scored 10-8 rounds... in the 13th round, there was knockdown. 6th round tommy got his ribs damaged,and 7th round he got whipped so badly that Manny was about to stopp it then, and tommy came out and started jabbing and moving, not being the killer he was in every other fight, including Hagler.

Retired and only 1 fight in 5 years, he moved up and beat a fighter who was only 32, had not lost in 10 years. had stopped evvery challenger for his undisptued crown, except or Duran, and Ray beat him. Then Ray won the light heavy title by knock out, brutally. At age 36 is when he started getting his ass handed to him, after long bouts of cocain abuse and being inactive. when he came back to the ring is when he cherry picked, and when he got dropped on his ass, and when he simply pitty patted his punches vs the ray of 81 and before..

Some on here show their ignorance

[lparm]

joto would lay down the second SRL started hitting him. This would be the biggest mismatch of jotos career kinda like joto-Gatti but only oscar would play the part of Gatti in this one.

[Thread Stealer]

DLH did most things at a high level. Leonard did them at an even higher level.

Leonard by clear decision, or maybe even a late stoppage as DLH tires and Leonard turns it up. Leonard was a great finisher.

[MANGLER]

SRL wins a UD. DLH is live here, but his lack of 12 rd stamina would bite him in the ass.
