    Yeah but Vargas and Mosley was on PEDs and some people thought Oscar beat Mosley on the 2nd fight where he was on PEDs. These werent just normal steroids, these were BALCO PEDs that people who were known to be on BALCO PEDS were breaking records ie Bonds, countless of track stars, and Marion Jones only showing the quality of BALCO peds were.

    Well, everybody except a few corrupt judges had him beating Trinidad EASY.

    Many had him beating Mosley in their 2nd fight.

    He beat an undefeated Chavez TWICE, and yea Chavez was old, but Manny gets credit for beating old as fuk fighters so why shouldn't Oscar?

    Also add Ruelas, Whitaker and Quartey and Vargas to that list.

    Won't argue with anyone who suggests the great Mexican Trio(Morales, JMM and Mab) belong in the same group.

    If you include them I think you should really include Lewis and Mosley aswell.

    If we are talking P4P H2H?

    RJJ
    Floyd
    Pac
    Hopkins
    DLH

    If you start talking resume.... it's a bit different
    If you start talking about what their resume would have looked like without corrupt judges.... it's a bit different again
    If you start talking intangibles like jumping weightclasses, longevity, beating up on bigger or smaller guys.... then who knows what the **** you would come up with.

    They are NOT on the same level. Pac and BHop/RJJ are level above them.
