Prime Oscar De La Hoya VS The Pacquiao who fought him?

[Luilun]

I know it has been talked about many times around here, just want to see what the posters who actually saw Oscar fight at his prime think? If you are too young or a casual fan please don't comment. IMO. Oscar would KO Pacquiao at any weight from 135-147 in his prime.

He Ko's Pacquiao similar to Marquez but A prime Oscar would also beat Mayweather these young people seem to forget Floyd fought a promoter not a a guy who lived boxing. Oscar was like Rocky Balboa that fought Clubber Lang all soft and sleeping in his silks or fish stocking panties which ever he prefers

Pac who fought Oscar at 147 was a super featherweight Pac who had won his first fight at Lightweight. I would concede that Prime Oscar's size would have been too much. Filipinos ain't dummies. Even the aged Oscar at that time struck fear so much that even Congress wanted to make a law to prohibit Pac from fighting Oscar.

But the Pac who fought Cotto would've beaten Oscar thoroughly more than the version of himself who just got out from Superfeatherweight. Too much power, speed, and boxing finesse.

You mean the one Yoked on Roids

But in the ring he still loses

If any of yous were around when the fight happened. Most people picked De La Hoya too win due to his size. Oscar cherry-picked Manny thinking he would cash out into the sunset and it came back and bit him in the ass.

DLH, people seem to forget that DLH was an ATG i'd actually favour prime DLH over Mayweather and Pacquiao.

Prime Oscar beats any 140 147 fighter today and the version of Pacquiao that he fought. The guy had more skill than people seem to remember or want to give him credit for.

i don't particularly like him, but he was big, strong, fast, hit hard and had an amazing chin. He would clean out 135-147 today, with the only ???? being Floyd.

If DLH wanted to have the best chance of winning he wouldn't have killed his body and weighed less than Pacquiao on fight night. I think he was trying to convince people he could win without a size advantage, that is what backfired, not the choice of opponent.

The business side of Dela Hoya cashed out on the Boxer side of Dela Hoya.
