    I really dislike when people do so. In that case, Marcus Rhode, Bert Cooper and Yory Boy Campas are ATG.

    Oscar De La Hoya is the greatest fighter in history. He beat Mosley, Tito, Hopkins, Mayweather just by facing them! :lol:


    I swear, no wonder boxing is falling on hard time, we god dudes in the sport who dont know **** about the sport.

    Yep but not Floyd. Not ****ing floyd despite being a WW for 5 short years.

    You're justifying why Hatton is deserving a fight while completely dismissing Margarito. Just like Floyd. Hahaha!

    Maybe Shane has more than enough money and would like to take on the challenges rather than spunk his money up the wall like that ***gott Mayweather.

    :yep Seriously, if this guy wasn't such a ****ing dickhead I'd probably be a big fan. I love watching him fight, but I can't stand the way he conducts himself.

    Look at the last 15 people each guy fought, shane seeks challenges often against bigger men.
    Mayweather is undeafeated.

    I know who I prefer and its Mosley

    Shane no doubt... his wins over De La Hoya are better than any of Floyds wins

    I thought he looked pretty amazing in the WW rematch even though he lost. Don't forget Winky is one of the best 154lb fighters ever.

    He definately looked amazing against Vargas.

    Also, 154 is only his 3rd weightclass cause he leapfrogged 140 for bigger paydays.

    god, it kills me to say this but i have to go with floyd. titles in five weight divisions as oppose to three. how's that from someone that can't stand the sight of floyd?

    :lol:whoa! relax. i'll be honest i was ****ing smashed when i wrote that last night, i didn't even realize til i logged on this morning i posted. saying that, yeah, his losses shouldn't count to his legacy. i think my point was that his legacy was enhanced by taking on the best at 3 weights. still, putting his 5 losses as a bonus doesn't help. his guts are beyond question but his wins are what should be compared.

    oh and shane still wins

    dumb answer, Flop Mayweather may be "arguably" better skill-wise but in no way whatsoever greater than Mosley legacy-wise.
