Hopkins KOed him with a body punch and Spence would do the same. There is tons of film on your hero so go watch that instead of attacking today's good welterweights and having them lose your BS fantasy fights to make Oscar better than he really was.
    But if you say his Win against Quartey is debatable . Then wouldn't it be Fair to also say his Losses against Mosley and Trinidad are Also debatable?

        The 140 lb. Oscar who stopped Chavez in four rounds was a bad dude.

          Oscar can't be trusted in big fights. History proves this.

          vargas is the only elite prime fighter, that oscar beat.
          Absolutely.

            Can't say he would destroy them all. Crawford would be a long night for him.

            But definitely he would fight most of them. Unlike belt holders these days.

              I say Crawford and perhaps Thurman would give De La Hoya the most trouble, since they appear to be the most flexible out of the bunch.

                Oscar was good but wasn't that good. Spence is too strong for him and Crawford too skilled. Oscar had a great career beating C and B level fighters.

                  Oscar always did do better in fantasy fights than reality

                    He outboxed Trinidad, made him look amateur at times. He should have got the decision but he gave away the fight

                    Was out hustled by the best version of Mosley in a competitive fight.

                    Won a close fight against an underrated Quartey.

                    Yeah a faded Pernell made him look silly but Whitaker was a bonafide ATG.

                    People forget how good prime DLH was at welterweight. He was very good. A step below ATG but more than a match for the current crop of welterweights

                      Oscar was a one handed fighter most of his career. So I doubt it.
