    Oscar at the tail end of his career ran a primed FMJ who was p4p 1 to an official SD and also fought a prime MP at WW fighting drained. Oscar is a legend.

    He also fought Hopkins who was P4P number one in 2004. He fought them all in his 30s. When you're a blind fan it looks good, as I was. When you look at it with scrutiny though, he made Hopkins fight at a 156 catchweight (when 160 was good enough for Sturm the fight before), stacked everything in his favor against Floyd (weight, venue, ring size, glove size, gloves, even Floyd's gloves), and tried to cherry pick Manny Pac (who had to go up 2 weight divisions, while Oscar only needed to lose 3 lbs). Compared to Pac and his couple of catchweight fights, that's a ****ing joke and Oscar should get ripped to shreds for it.

    :lol: nice try. Holyfield, Pacquiao, Roy Jones, Arguably Hopkins, Arguably Oscar all have better resumes than floyd. And what "prime" opposition are you talking about? Floyd hasnt Beaten Any prime elite/atg fighter in his whole career.

    Floyd doesnt hold a single better win than Oscar's wins in the 2nd mosley fight or Trinidad fight.(if re gonna say he lost these fights then there is no point in debating.)

    Floyd doesnt Hold a single better win than Holyfields wins against Bowe or Tyson, arguably even moorer.

    Floyd Doesnt hold a single better win than Roy jone's wins against Hopkins Or Toney

    Floyd doesnt hold a single better win than Pacquiao's win against Barrera, Cotto, Arguably Morales.

    Arguably Hopkins Win over trinidad is better than enything floyd has ever done.

    Ofcourse Sweet pea's Win over chavez is better than any win on floyds record.

    Just few examples, and the sentence which summs it up;

    If you Fight the Best out there, sometimes U lose.

    okey u didnt like how he was fighing on the backfoot for the last few rounds(even tho this aspect is usually overestimated its not like he was running for his life), But does it really matter? He won the vast majority of rounds and thats what really matters.

    The fight lasted 12 rounds, and oscar won most of them, clear victory for golden boy.

    On paper the 156 catchweight looks bad but on fight night it just didnt matter. Floyd was the best fighter in the world at the time even if he hadnt fought at 154. Also this wasnt a prime oscar asking a WW to come up. He was a semi retired guy who was quite past it. Against Manny whether he wanted to be or not, he was drained as hell and again fought the best fighter in the world and got his ass kicked.

    Oscar....

    Hopkins, Mayweather, Pacman, Trinidad, Mosley x2, Quartey, Vargas, Mayorga, Camacho, Chavez x2, Whitaker, ect....

    It isn't even close.

    Oscar's resume is so great that people don't even bother mentioned his other fights against guys like Ruelas, Paez, Gatti, Catillejo, Carr, Leija, John John Molina, Hernandez, Gonzalez, ect... who were all top challengers or Champions when Oscar beat them.
