    and yet Oscar decided not to pursue a rematch because tito (like mosley) didn't want less pay for someone they had already beat
    I agree it's fair to say that tito didn't win the fight, while in the same breath I think it's fair to say Oscar lost it

    I voted Floyd beats all 3 but I'm surprised to see a majority disagree with me.

    I don't think it's fair to say he lost a fight he didn't lose. I get why running the last 3 rounds annoys people but the rules of boxing say nothing about having to win in style.

    Floyd will still beat them hands down. He only does not believe on himself.

    Assuming Floyd himself was at his peak. (The De La Hoya version), he beats all 3

    Oscar was on the wrong end of a fair few controversial decisions too.

    I think 2003 Oscar that outboxed Mosley at least draws with Floyd, Mosley that edged Oscar in 2000 knocks out Floyd, and 09 Pacman still loses to Floyd. Matched correctly, Pacman and especially Floyd looked unbeatable, but prime Oscar or Mosley would have been too strong, too fast, too big, too powerful for those 2.

    There was a reason he fought all 3 at the tail end of their careers. Oscar wouldn't have abandoned his jab that was causing issues the first 4 rounds. Shane wouldn't have stopped trying after the 2nd round, especially knowing he hurt Floyd pretty badly. Pac was a buzz saw back in 2007-2010. Relentless. Nothing like the "hoping to out think and outbox" the more athletic, more bigger, more pure boxer, in Floyd.

    fights would have been even more competitive, verging towards 50/50 but I think Floyd's ring IQ is much better than both and would get him the wins. Against Pac, that was always an easy fight for Floyd.
