Who do you think would win if they did it again? I think Quartey should of won there first encounter. However I think De La Hoya would win a rematch.

De La Hoya hammers him.
no point for oscar to take the fight, he's beaten him once before...
He should set his goals on deafeating Floyd Mayweather
Quartey has lost much of the quickness of his sharp jab which gave oscar problems. now oscar can pick him apart all day

ODLH...ODLH...ODLH....worse than the first....Quote:

Delahoya is still open to straight shots, more then he ever has been in his career. Quartey would beat him again. Quartey HAS lost a step or two or three, but Delahoya may not have lost step, but he's lost a lot more form.Quote:

Yes oscar is not as mobile as he used to be but Quartey was never to big on body punching anyways. quartey hasn't carried his power to jr middleweight he landed so many clean shots on Carlos Bojorquez and couldn't even knock him down, the stoppage only came because the ref felt sorry for carlos getting hit so much, there is no way he hurts oscar and Quartey was out on his feet in the fight with Verno Phillips, Oscar would have demolished him in that scenario. Oscar by TKO in 10Quote:
