At first I thought that Mayorga would have no chance against the golden boy and if DLH were in his prime, he wouldn't have a snowballs chance in hell, but seeing how DLH hasn't fought since Sep. 2004 and hasn't look great for a long while, I reconsidered the prospect.
We all know that Mayorga has good power and that his wild brawling style has foiled good boxers like Vernon Forrest and gave the slick Cory Spinks all he could handle, will that be enough to beat a DLH that hasn't fought in well over a year and is not nearly as hngry as he once was?
I honestly don't know...but I'm not so sure that DLH would walk all over this guy, the way I thought he would. I still lean toward De La Hoya, becasue even on his worst night he is loads better in terms of skill than Ricardo.
Obvioulsy there are other factors that I have already mentioned other than just pure skill but I pose the question...
Can Mayorga beat DLH?
