    Trinidad was the weakest of the three.

    Who would win in a toe-to toe slugfest is completely irrelevant.

    If that counted, then Liston would be better than Ali.

    Baldomir would be better than Mayweather.

    And Sweetpea wouldn't crack the top 5 of his day.

    Oscar demonstrated clearly that he was h 2 h better than Tito.

    I had him bet of the three, till Shane exposed Marg.

    I rank Shane and Oscar about the same with Tito trailing by a small margin.

    If I really had to pick one it might be Shane.

    If he does well against Floyd, then he'll be the clear best.

    Agreed.

    Oscar was a complete fighter. Could brawl, infight, box, and got toe to toe. Had speed, power and footwork.

    Oscar has also accomplished more than Tito and Mosley, and has beat the better opposition.

    You can tell who the bandwagon jumpers are, and the new fans are. It's those who pick Mosley.
