We all know DLH was past his prime when they fought but how do you think Pac would have fared against a prime DLH?

Prime Pacquiao would have given Prime De La Hoya "The Margarito treatment". I know DLH didn't fight like Margarito but with Prime Pacquiao in the same ring with him? Not much of a fight. Prime Pacquiao was a freak of nature. Unstoppable force.Comment

Prime De La Hoya would of beaten Mannys ass. Left hook to head or body fight is over. Oscar was a ****in beastComment

Prime Pac Manny still wins. He was great at taking away fighters with 1 trick and for Oscar it was only the left hand. Manny had so many awkward punching angles and his activity level was crazy. Watching a Pac between ages 24-31 and then after is like watching two entirely different Pacs. Aside from skills differences, his activity level dropped as well as his timing.
I think Oscar would of looked dumb regardless of when they fought. He just always relied on his left hook. Manny took it away and it reduced Oscar to nada.Comment

Pac's problems have always been against very good counterpunchers .
ODH was not a very good counter puncher. In fact, he looked terrible trying to counter Sturm.
Probably a close D for Pac. Pac's southpaw stance and Oscar's weak right hand ( converted southpaw ) might have been the difference.Comment
