    Oscar has never been dropped and that inclides fights with Mosely, Trinidad, Quartey. Hopkins was a body shot. Oscar has one of the best chins going. Even the shordrained version couldnt e dented byPacquiao.

    DLH wanna see Floyd lose by any means by anyone. Even to the point where he's just going to SAY IT to sike himself out. DLH has said since he lost to Floyd that whomever he fought was going to beat him. Now he saying he'll go with Floyd? DLH even been to other fighters camps and dressing rooms encouraging Floyd's opponents. Now Pacman, maybe the best since he whip Hoya, he's saying he have the edge?
    WOOOOW!!!! Don't believe him for a second!!!

    By the way, a prime Hoya would not have quit on the stool in his prime. And would have let his hands go. Hoya over Pacman.

    Floyd over Hoya all day everyday.

    He got dropped at least once early in his career.

    As far as the question goes I think prime Floyd beats prime Oscar. Prime Oscar against prime Manny I would have liked to see. Manny in his prime with his late career skills would have won I think.

    You had a point though. Oscar was down a bit early in his career, and even Whitaker had him on the deck. I remember back in the mid nineties many boxing writers thought he was chinny.

    Difference was, all Oscar's knockdowns were flash knockdowns when he was off balance. I can't recall him ever being hurt or his legs wobbling.

    Its probably when he thought or felt that he had no threat from his oponents power and fought stupid.

    I actually think the Cotto that fought Floyd would beat Pac. Cotto was not only weight drained in the Pac fight...he still had not psychologically gotten over the first Margo fight.

    I am a fan of Cotto but he is a one armed fighter and Manny beats him again.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
