Would Oscar Deleyoya be the best 140 pounder in today's era?

[Sheldon312]

With Terence Crawford dominating the division they way he is today do you think that Oscar at 140 would be able to challenge him for the number 1 position in the division?

Oscar destroys everybody including Crawford.

[Redd Foxx]

I could see him and Terrance having a classic sort of feud where they fight each other a few times. DLH gets pretty underrated these days because of the way he ended his career and the fact that he's reviled as a promoter. He was a damn good boxer though. As much as I think Crawford is a future great, I can't pick between he and DLH.

oscar would have beaten him

[BoxingFan85]

I think him and Crawford would have been a treat for fight fans.. I'm not sure whether they would go all out on a war or box.. It's hard to pick a winner but If I had to bet on it, it'll be Crawford for me...

[b00g13man]

Definitely.

[John Locke]

Obviously.

DLH would beat Crawford to a pulp...

[Dodger07]

De la hoya was leagues above the current 140 lb fighters, including crawford.

[dookie]

He'd be number 2 behind Crawford. I could see De la Hoya losing in a similar fashion as De La Hoya v. Mosley 1. Good fight but clear winner.

Could you break that fight down, please? He did have a little trouble with Pernell so how does he beat Crawford when Crawford is very smiliar to Pernell.
