A prime Oscar De La Hoya would have beat Manny Pacquiao

[Las Vegas,]

2010 Manny>>>>>>>>Version of Shane that beat him in the first fight. If Shanes combos got him the nod over Oscar imagine what Manny's would do.

LOL@Comparing 2000s Shane Mosley's power to Manny Pacquiao's. Oscar has a granite chin. Stop being a *******. "Oscar lost most of his big fights" atleast he had the balls to step in with men who were considered the best. I can't say the same for your hero.

Manny Pacquiao didn't even want a 2008 Mosley, much less a 2000 version of him.

2. Oscar struggled with southpaws any Manny would have been by far the fastest he had ever faced. Not only that..Manny would have been the best (southpaw) he had faced as well.

Can you name a southpaw he has had trouble with besides Whitaker? Lets face it, Manny Pacquiao is no Pernell Whitaker.

When did I compare their power? I just stated 2010 Manny is a better fighter and better combination puncher than that version of Shane.

FWIW Floyd is the best fighter out there and Manny tried to fight him. You dudes say he don't fight the best yet when I ask who....y'all post bull**** fighters like Guzman, Raheem and other C class fighters...smh

"Wait Bro I'm afraid of needles!" Comon man, if he wanted that fight he would of called out Floyd and said "I want Floyd, hurry up lets make it happen" instead all we get is "Talk to my promoter".

Call him out, and take the random blood tests, until then it's Team Pacquiao's fault.

Also I lol'd at "No one wants to see the Marquez fight" when in a business stand point it's the biggest fight that could be made besides Mayweather.

How many excuses can your man make? I know you're not used to the truth since you listen to the media so much.

oscar is a legend ,duckqiao is the catch weight king.

de la hoya didn't need arum to cherry pick damaged goods for him.

and he didn't wait for fighters to come from a massive loss to fight them.

duckqiao first said he was afraid of needles.

then he threw the 10 million dollar penalty idea at floyd (which floyd accepted)

then he filed a law suit.

and NOW he's gonna be fighting floyds 3rd left over

Prime Oscar would have beaten both Pacquiao and Floyd.

If the guys that were around when De La Hoya was in his prime (Prime Mosley, Quartey, Whitaker, Trinidad) were around now I'm pretty sure Pacquiao wouldn't be hanging out in welterweight and flirting with higher weights.

Yes, this is very true. A lot of people won't want to believe it and think Pac would have beaten him regardless, but a prime Oscar is a very, very different ballgame to the guy Pac did beat. Completely different in every way. He was as fast as Pac, had a better jab, more powerful, boxed better, moved very well and actually had good stamina and finished fights very strong back then.

There will always be those who still believe that Pac would have beaten those guys but he would never have gotten to 147 if it were the era of prime Oscar and if that fight did happen, it really would have ended in a TKO or KO for Oscar.
