    Very close fight Ive thought of before. This is debatable but I thought 140 was De La Hoya's best weight. I think either man might win it. I mighve favoured De La Hoyas harder blows and tighter defense?

    Which round does Taylor knock him out, Neil? :lol:

    It would be similar to DLH - Mosley. Taylor went to war.

    He was a gifted but flawed boxer whose rep is a bit overblown, IMO.

    Sure as hell not based on the Chavez and McGirt fights.

    A face first brawler is Crapsidis. Give Taylor a LITTLE bit more credit than that.

    Mel's reputation is pretty outrageous

    He was a terrific fighter who sometimes had defensive lapses and went into offensive overdrive, but he did not lack the ability to box, he was a better backfoot guy than that fuck Mosley

    Anyway, this fight is really fascinating, could go either way for me
