    I was trying to figure this same thing out the other day, but didnt care enough to make a thread

    Mosley is a cheat, and Winky made a career of ducking the best fighters and is the cherry pickers of cherry pickers, IMO both shouldn't get in for those reason

    His W over Top P4Ps Delahoya and Margarito is better than Wright's whole resume.

    Real talk.

    Mosley wasn't in his prime weight, as well as Tito.

    But I agree the Vargas and the Taylor fight could have gone his way.

    Not really since Mosley isn't that good of a 154 lb'er. Did you see the Oscar rematch?

    The Tito win was a joke to be honest, Im sorry to say. Tito was old, disinterested and way about his natural weight class. He looked terrible and slow against Mayorga, and it showed again in the Wright fight. Margarito was considered unbeatable at the time, at least in terms of attacking him as a strategy. Mosley did just that and knocked him the **** out, and brutally dominated him the whole fight. Outpointing Mosley at 154 and then winning by only a few rounds in the rematch is not as impressive at the first De La Hoya victory at Staples center either. I am a fan of both, and they both deserve to be in the Hall in my opinion because Winky was robbed against Taylor, and also beat Ike, something people forget quite a bit. Two hall of famers
