    Mosley was amazing in his last fight, Oscar was dreadful in his last fight, therefore here in Kneejerk Village Shane wins the poll.

    I vote for Oscar. Most world titles, most titles at different weight divisions, best resume. And he won the 2nd fight with SSM and beat Tito clearly.

    I can't in good faith vote for Shane Mosley. He has cheated himself, boxing fans, his opponents, and most importantly he gave a black eye to the sport of boxing for quit some time to come.

    This lets me further know you know NOTHING about Tito - see, I wouldn't usually construct a setence like this, but I'm mimicking you for dramtic effect.

    Tito did not use illegal hand wraps. He was asked to re-wrap his hands on one occasion. This is a common occurance in boxing. It happened to De La Hoya before the Pacquiao fight. It has happened to many fighters on many ocassions.

    Any allegations against Tito with regards to cheating are pure and unsubtantiated speculation. On the other hand, we know for an absolute fact that Mosley cheated by using illegal performance enhancing drugs from BALCO....and still managed to lose to De La Hoya.

    Trinidad IHO has maybe the best career. He was an absolute wrecking ball for a long span.

    But Scarf Ace thinks Mosley is the best fighter.

    He really hasn't.

    De La Hoya has five more world titles than him, at three more weight, and has a better resume.

    I said too close to call, but I'd still probably put DLH at the top with Mosley a close 2nd, but closing the gap.

    Mosley is finishing his career better than Oscar did, which makes his losses easier to forget.

    There is definetly an issue here, De La Hoya was better in the first half of his career, Mosley was better in the second half, which is more or less right now, so people remeber how great Mosley is, and forgot how good De La Hoya was. The passage of time has eroded De La Hoya's greatness.
