Very hard to say as Oscar only had 2-3 fights at super featherweight. I think it's more fair to match Oscar with 140-147 lbers. Even at 135 he was only there for the first few years of his career and beyond Hernandez and Leija (Ruelas was a good gatekeeper) didn't really do much at 135.

I do not like DLH, but I cannot see Morales beating him at 130lbs. He was too strong for that weight class. I think by strenght ALONE, De La Hoya beats him.

At 130, it's hard to see Morales beating Floyd and I am more a Morales fan. 130 is a high point for Morales at the end of his career which is opposite of the case with DLH. A 1994 Morales probably(and I could be wrong) was still a light featherweight or batamweight.

I'd say the early Oscar has the shit royally beaten out of him. This just can't end very well for him.

In 1994, Morales was a super bantamweight(122) which makes this thread pointless. DLH would have destroyed someone that small. Its weird that alot of people would choose Morales to lose to Prince Naz and beat DLH. It's not really logical.
