      De La Hoya-Mosley III at 154 would be much like the second one, and this time De La Hoya would probably get the decision he should have gotten in the second one.

      Pacquiao fighting the De La Hoya Mayweather fought would not have been that much different than the time they did fight in my opinion. De La Hoya would be unable to handle the constant onslaught Pac brings to the table.

        You might be right. Style wise Pac can be a nightmare for DLH at any weight. But I think at this stage DLH may be able to do some damage because of his advantages and Pacquiao's weaknesses. He can bring lots of pressure and physically he'd have the advantage too. Cotto was able to control Pac with the jab early but his come forward and eat punches type gameplan was horrible and he paid for it. DLH has a better jab and I doubt Floyd Sr or Nacho would have him come forward like Cotto did, so I can see him hanging in there.

        Even though my prediction would be Pacquiao winning, I certainly wouldn't predict a TKO or knockdown and I can see DLH winning 4-5 rounds easily.
