    Nice rebuttal! :roll:

    Anyhow, I think Trinidad is a GREAT fighter, he was extremely talented and gifted.

    But with that said, he has in no way shape or form accomplished more than Oscar.

    Tito was a great fight, but we need to remember that Oscar started at 130. Oscar had frightening power at 130-135 and was a much bigger puncher at these weights than Tito at 147. While Tito was heavy handed, he didn't knock you out with one punch. ODLH carried his power all the way up to 154, where he ktfo'd Vargas and Mayorga. I don't even want to talk about boxing ability which Tito didn't have. Tito was a great fighter, but Oscar was just better, and when you throw in the fact that Oscar was better at the lower weights than WW, there should really be no debate as to who is the better fighter.

    Agreed, people seem to just ignore what Oscar did below 147.
