    Oscar beat better fighers than Pac has. End of story. ODLH greater. It's how you measure greatness.

    i disagree, legacy is determined on accomplishments which include wins over credible fighters. pac has been lineal champ 4 times and moved through more weight classes and winning his big fights.

    DLH has the better names on his resume and some very good wins...but in terms of actual Legacy based on wins it has to be PAC. DLH has the better resume given he's faced everyone and anyone who was ELITE in his day, but PAC has beaten and demolished all the best fighters in his.

    Pacquiao has already crept into the Top 20-25. De La Hoya isn't there. Pacquiao has the better legacy already. When the Ring updates their last list of Best 80 Fighters of the Last 80 Years, if Pacquiao isn't ahead of DLH when it's released, I'm so sure it will happen that I'll quit this forum for life.

    Please tell me what wins rank Pac higher than ODLH?

    MAB (past prime)
    EM (shot)
    ODLH (shot)
    Hatton
    JMM
    Diaz

    How can that compare to

    Whitaker (past prime)
    Chavez (past prime)
    Vargas
    Trinidad
    Mosley
    Mayorga
    Castillejo
    Gatti
    Gonzalez
    Hernandez
    Quartey
    .......to name a few

    well, ODLH has made his mark in the business end of boxing too
    I guess who has a more famous or glorified legacy is going to hinge on the rest of pac's boxing career, and weather or not he stays in the spotlight after his boxing days are over

    That's further proof that *******s know very little about the sport.

    Do YOU really need a judge to tell YOU who won vs Tito?
    Same thing with Mosley, and Mosley was on steroids!

    we could be here discussing who we think won those fights and we would never agree in the end what matters is the oficial result,cause if you're gonna mention those two fights as wins for DLH you might as well mention the Quartey,Sturm and Whitaker fights as losses to DLH.

    and then you mention that Morales was shot but you dont do the same with Chavez who was a shadow of the fighter he once was when he fought DLH also Barrera was much close to his prime than Whitaker.

    go buy yourself a clue nutthugger.

    Go ahead and remove Trinidad and Mosley, and to make it fair we'll remove JMM and count the HUssein fight as a loss.

    Bottom line is Morales was shot, Chavez was past his prime.

    The Morales win is no where as good as the Chavez win.
