    many considered him to be 2nd-4th best boxer of 1990s and that alone maybe enough to lock im in ATG top 100 list today..

    Considering anywhere from alot of people to some people out there think De La Hoya might have won any of the fights listed here other than Pacquiao I'd say this is pretty clear cut.

    This isn't a propoganda thread is it? :rofl

    Why is Pacquiao even on this list? A Pacquiao win over Tommy Hearns right now be more historically significant.

    people (larry merchant, bert sugar) said that dela hoya's loss to pac has no effect in his greatness bec he is already past prime...

    so can argue mosley 2, it's already a rematch and dela hoya should have learned how to beat mosley clearly if he is really great

    They can't speak for history though. History is going to speak for itself.

    The one history would remember the most is him losing to pacquiao cuz of the way he loss.

    biggest loss i gotta say is against shane mosley during their first fight. He was still in his prime and was one of the best boxer at the time when mosley shock the world.

    I think the trinidad fight was close but i can't blame the judges for giving it to tito since oscar ran the last 3-4 rounds.

    against b-hop he was doing good until he got KTFO by the bigger man.

    Against floyd he fought a good fight but came up short.

    Two words strike me here; BIGGEST and HISTORICAL.
