How would a fight at 135 go?
Then a fight at 147?
Who would win and how?
135 DLH by SD
I see it being extremely close. Mayweather was arguably beaten, at this weight, against Castillo the first time. DLH never lost at 135, and was on the top of his game.
147
Mayweather by MD
Mayweather is a little to quick, and slides out a decision.
To me Mayweather wins both
Other than 130, 135 was his best weight. He was the quickest and strongest at this weight. Floyd does have underrated power, he was considered the most dangerous at 130, but his power did diminish a bit at 135.
Setting that aside, I think at 135 Mayweather is too fast for DLH
and at 147 he would be more experienced, plus he already beat him at 147
Floyd Mayweather at his best is better than Oscar Dela Hoya at his best in any weight class that they've both fought at. Even when you look at a "prime" version of Dela Hoya he still struggled with fighters who had speed, crafty, and Boxing ability. When you look at the supposed "prime" version of The Golden Boy he struggled with Shane Mosley and Pernell Whitaker.
Floyd obviously isn't either of those two men but he still embodies a lot of the skills that made been men successful. He's fast, crafty, and is arguably the best "pure boxer' in decades.
Still Mayweather.
I dont believed Dela hoya can beat pacquiao in his prime...and that is a fact...i dont see dela hoya beating floyd prime vs prime...its just my honest opinion...
I'd go with Oscar. He's bigger, stronger, got a great jab and greater hitting power.
Imagine 2 fights
