154lbs, 12 rounds.
After Mosley stopped Vargas in a rematch, he became the WBC#1 contender for De La Hoya's WBC 154lbs belt, that Oscar acquired in the Mayorga bout.
There were some talks about De La Hoya - Mosley 3 around that time, but it didn't come to fruition due to Mosley being Oscar's business partner at Golden Boy Promotions.
Still, if it would've happened - let's take De La Hoya from the Mayorga fight vs Mosley from the 2nd Vargas fight.
What would've happened?

Oscar beat him in the 2nd fight and was still at a high level - higher than shane at this point

Either one by decision by this time.

Oscar by SD.

I'd probably have to favor Oscar to win a close decision by this point in their careers.
