    Oscar really cared about being the best. He cared about legacy.

    The last fight that he really was motivated for, was Vargas. You could argue Mayorga, but it's debatable.

    You can actually see the difference in his eyes, Oscar had the facial expression, the look of a killer in his earlier fights, a look that was later gone, and showed in performances. Like when Micky says to Rocky "You got civilized".

    Much like the different looks in Morales' eyes, when you compare Pacquaio 3 to his fight with Marcos Maidana.

    It's an Oscar career highlight you dickhead.

    Even on the Oscar-Pac fight highlight GP created a dramatic narrative for Oscar being in the fight. *****s. :patsch

    Oscar had too much ineffective aggression that night for turbotime to go through just to find his rare punch in

    deal with it patricia

    Man that Vargas fight was still such an epic moment. When he rocked Vargas late I was freaking the **** out :lol: That was definitely my biggest moment as a boxing fan I think. **** :tired

    Who says they measure them at all? They can make up any nonsense height they like. ODLH was about 5'9" imo. Floyd is about 5'7", Pac and Marquez are like 5'5". Going back in time, Evander Holyfield's 6'2.5" listing was ridiculous, dude is 6'1" on his best day.

    People rave about Robinson's left hook, but the one that dropped Vargas is as good as any that I have ever seen.

    I've never even watched the full fight. :verysad

    It was amazing, and hurt bigger guys with it. I still can't get over the size of Quartey in the 90s. Oscar looked pathetic next to him with his bird legs :lol:
