    He won titles in 6 weight class, sure the 160 lbs title were tainted but still it's in the record book. He was one of the best in his prime. He has one of the best resume in boxing.

    Ruelas-Camacho-carr-chavez 2x-whitaker-quartey-vargas-mayorga etc etc. He is an ATG, not many boxers can say they're a 6 division champion.

    If you can't admit Oscar won the tito and/OR Mosley 2 fight, you're obviously a blind hater.

    I can admit where Oscar did lose, but a hater like yourself will agree with everything single loss while disagreeing with every single win. Wether it's a controversal win that's close on the scorecards (quartey or pernell) or fighting someone like Vargas or Chavez who you'll just say was shot anyway to discredit his easy win. You just can't give the man any credit.

    This actually makes your opinion pretty damn worthless when you think about.:lol:

    DLH won those "6" titles against weak, overmatched, old, or non-descript competition.

    Ruelas = old
    Camacho = old
    Carr = nobody
    Chavez = old
    Whitaker = old
    Quartey = controversial win
    Vargas = Trinidad leftover
    Mayorga = club fighter

    And let's be honest here, holding WBO titles @ 130 and 160 does NOT make DLH a 6 division Champion. IIRC, he's olny held linear titles @ 135, 147, and 154.

    Plus, ole Fish Nets LOST to the 5 best fighters he ever faced. Not ATG material there...

    Chavez sr was well washed up and whitaker beat dlh. If you consider the vargas fight a big fight....ok. 1 fight.

    He was handed everything, including his gold medal on a silver platter. EVERYTHING!

    chicanito = pussed out of the fight at 130 and waiting 2 years and made him come up outta his natural weight.

    nelson = ducked

    tzyu = ducked

    sturhm = got his ass beat

    I don't recall you posting a score card for Trinidad or Mosley II.

    So, you can ***** and moan and tow the Fishnets lover party line about the Trinidad and Mosley II fights - however - until you post a scorecard - you don't know **** about who actually won the fight.

    Fact is, Trinidad swept the last three rounds. And there's no way you're going to convince me that Oscar won 7 of the first 9 rounds. Only idiotic Fishnets lovers, like yourself, believe something so utterly stupid.

    And Mosley had already beaten DLH in the first fight, and was on his way to KOing ole Fishnets in the rematch.

    So, post a scorecard for these fights. Until then, you don't know ****...

    How do you figure? He kicked ass at the Olympics, even knocked his opponent down in his gold medal fight.

    Oscar is deinitely one of the ATG, in my opinion he was fearless. He fought everybody, rarely cherry picked, and was a great ambassador for the sport of boxing.
