[zuru]

15 rds Welterweight
Curry can go 15,I assume De La Hoya can.
I think he is the harder puncher .
Not sure here.I can see both winning.Curry is more steady,De La Hoya more explosive

Oscar De La Hoya on points. I agree that Curry is overrated.

[DrDuke]

In would be competetive and close for sure.

[Evander]

Know what's interesting.
Ask yourself how you felt about De La Hoya prior/post knockdown of Ike Quartey in the 12th round.
Where were you at that point in relation to De La Hoya's power ?
I bet you flip flopped like I did based off the fight.
One moment De La Hoya is a boxer medium hitter to a boxer higher hitter.
Molded part of his career did this moment.

Oscar more so.

[margaret thatcher]

nope

[Ambling Alp II]

Curry was really good until the Honeyghan fight. for whatever reason, he never bounced back from that. Up until then, I would give him a slight edge over De La Hoya.

[Evander]

15 rounds, I'd lean toward Curry.

[gilgamesh]

Curry I think was the more naturally gifted fighter. De La Hoya had more grit and determination. I think De La Hoya could edge it down the stretch, but it'd be a close one either way.

[nobleart1978]

De La Hoya would win the fight - but NOT get the decision !

[gilgamesh]

De La Hoya would win the fight - but NOT get the decision !

Or he might lose the fight and get the decision. Happened both ways to Oscar.

[Nile4000]

Curry, by close UD, 8-7 type of fight, has to be at his absolute best.
