Would a prime Oscar clean out current 135lb-154lb?

ODLH was a beast in his prime but it's a futile exercise trying to compare fighters from different generations. It's a fun thought experiment but the best and most well thought out arguments are just opinions at best. My opinion on this hypothetical scenario is that yes, ODLH does dominate today's fighters in that weight range.
On a different DLH note he fought well against FMJ in the first half. In fact, I might go so far as to award my judgement towards DLH for the first half. FMJ made his adjustments and won the fight obviously. Pac beat the crap out DLH though! Had him looking slow and old! DLH wore a defeated look in the latter rounds, he knew there was nothing he could do to come back for the winLast edited by Gamer30168; 06-09-2020, 10:43 PM.Comment

Oscar was weight drained and destroyed on the scales he have every reason to look beaten and out of it, obviously you dont understand the facts of the weight or how it totally ruined ODH, at this level if youre off a millisecond you lose, Oscar was off a minute.ODLH was a beast in his prime but it's a futile exercise trying to compare fighters from different generations.

Do you understand that Oscar was 16 lbs heavier on fight night against Floyd than he was against Manny, how do you think thats going to transpire in the two matches.Comment

You would have to say so, no active fighter outside of Pacquiao has a resume like ODLH, he was a bad, bad man in his prime.
People saying Crawford would beat him...based on what? Beating Dierry Jean and Engis? Gtfo man, you have to prove greatness, it doesn't get handed to you on a plate. Until somebody proves otherwise and accomplishes as much as ODLH did, they shouldn't be put in the same sentence.Comment

You are correct...I was unaware of the weight specifics of the fight. DLH looked a little bigger than both Pac and FMJ on those two nights. He looked pretty buff while Pac and FMJ looked a little more cut and leanOscar was weight drained and destroyed on the scales he have every reason to look beaten and out of it, obviously you dont understand the facts of the weight or how it totally ruined ODH, at this level if youre off a millisecond you lose, Oscar was off a minute.
