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

[U_TALKING_2_ME?]

I really dont think that some of the posters in this thread were watching boxing back when ODH was in his prime and no offense, but especially most of the Pac fans for sure did not see ODH in his prime but to say that Pac beats ODH in his prime is not very realistic.

ODH's jab was a thing of beauty, and was fast and hard, i was at the Tito fight and for the first 3 rounds it looked like ODH was going to stop Tito until Tito hit him with a left hook and made ODH run the rest of the fight.

I was a ODH hater and somewhat still am but he was too big and too good for Pac to beat from 135 to 147, i remember when he was destroying lightweights and they were saying that ODH hits like a Heavyweight.

The only live opponent Pac has beaten that was not past their prime or hand picked above 135 was Cotto and Cotto is not on ODH level.

ODH beats Pac, Roach said it himself.

"Oscar would have beat Floyd as well."

I've said this all along. Oscar was 34, stuck in mud, and too rich when he fought Floyd. After 8 rounds, he was ahead by a point on all three scorecards. He simply got old and couldn't sustain the pace he set early. A prime Oscar would have made the smaller Mayweather, look small. He was too fast, too smart, too big, and he moved to well with his legs and knew how to fight BIG. Floyd wouldn't beat a lot of fighters who came before him. He is over-rated in my eyes and doesn't like to challenge himself.

Please stop talking about those scores, Oscar only won 3 rounds. Giving him 4 is being generous

He ducked winky wright a few times and Shane Mosley beat prime oscar dela hoya twice!I dont think dela hoya beats floyd both prime... No one beats mayweather in welterweigh besides 22yr ray leonard

Oscar offered Winky a fight for more than 6.5 million. Wright ducked Oscar.

Conte and Balco connection days. Just saying

Only the rematch, which oscar should have got the decision in anyways. The first fight in which shane deserved the decision was before shane got involved with that.

On topic: DLH or mosley destroy pacquioa in their prime. Pac isnt an atg ww, he was just there at the right time. Atg p4p for sure but not at 147, if the division was as stacked as it was back then he wouldnt even be at the weight.

Oscar beats Whitaker and Chavez and he loses his biggest fights? What?

Both were past prime...cmon man!!!

[VG_Addict]

How would Prime Oscar do against Cotto, Forrest, Tszyu, Canelo, and Marquez?

[bravestone]

Both were past prime...cmon man!!!

and Oscar lost big fights past prime.

Hmmmm......

"How would Prime Oscar do against Cotto, Forrest, Tszyu, Canelo, and Marquez".

Oscar against Cotto wouldn't be that competitive. Oscar would swell, cut, and stop Cotto within. 6 or 7 rounds. against Forrest would have been a 50/50 fight but Oscar outpoints him. Tszyu and Marquez shouldn't even be in this question or on that list. They were too little. Good questions though.
