Who has better overall "boxing" skills: De La Hoya or Mosley?

[Cash Cow]

De La Hoya, has a better jab, better combos, more accurate punches, better defense and better timing. Mosley beat him because he has better power, strength, speed and overall athelticism.

Mosley has very good skills though, when he uses it. Against Margarito he showed great lateral movements, counter punches and a good jab.

Actually Mosley beat him cause of steroids

[disolly]

I guess Margaritto has more boxing skills then Cotto then...

ha exactly. i would say de la hoya is the better boxer, but mosley has more natural ability. and mosley does have a great chin.

[Bushidō]

better boxer = DLH

better speed/power = Mosley

I got de la hoya .overall easy ,but mosley had speed that made up for his weakness

[Siggy]

i think its amazing what shane was able to accomplish with such a shtty trainer. imo, if shane wouldve left his father behind earlier in his career, this wouldnt even be a debate.
but as it were, ODH had the better skills.

Oscar has a higher skillset than Mosley!!His punches are shorter,his jab was crisper,he had better balance!!He could plant his feet,or fight on his toes!!

But Mosley is the better fighter!!More stamina,= in power,willing to fight to the finish!!Oscar would have been better if he could stay strong,but he had a horrible habit of weakening as the fight progressed!!

[Dambala]

Oscar. Mosley's athletism gives him a lot of advantages through his career, but Oscar is more skilled, way better jab, best defense, equal offense, he adjust better, he's the best boxer of the two.

[gibo]

The only skills hoyo had was, marketing skills, smile skills, charm skills. con mesicans out of there hard earned money skills. Cause when it came to BOXING SKILLS OR COJONES IN THE RING?? HE HAD NONE!!!!!! SO I GUESS THE ANSWER IS MOSLEY

I think this all the time about his career. He might have gone undefeated, or have 3 less losses. Jack Mosley, hmmph, who else has he developed?

Exactly, talk about riding ones coat tails.
