Blah. Legitimate, maybe, in a twisted way, but certainly not meaningful. Oscar - Hopkins was more realistic than Tapia - Barrera, perhaps, but still tends in that direction. Oscar was pushing the envelope too far and he met a reasonable limitation. When has Floyd stepped up in weight like that to fight someone of the caliber of Hopkins?
Nevah.
Sturm, yeah, debatable, Oscar didn't come in prime, looked puffy, and I'm not sure it was a solid win. Kinda like Mayweather-Castillo, come to think of it, except not quite as obvious a robbery.
PBF is fine stuff, he really is, but he hasn't been tested like DLH. If they get in the ring together, I think DLH will get his number and corner him. PBF loves to run, but I think Oscar would hunt him down. and put him down, if not just out.
I'm thinking that Oscar can take PBF, but I am doubting that they will get in the ring together. Unfortunately; I"d love to see it MOVE BOXING FORWARD bigtime.
