.......in his prime, what makes him think he can do it at 35? For people who have him in their Top 5 for the past decade need to stop smoking funny stuff.
Almost pulling off a victory against the very best undefeated prime p4p figther at 34 is not bad is it noob?
Varas was NOT elite. Tito had bashed his head in by the time they fought...That's the only reason Oscar fought him. Remember Oscar NEVER granting Fernando a pay day and BAMN 5 kds later the fight happensatsch Oscar the ULTIMATE "cherrypicker." Steve Forbes anyone:nut
PLEASE NOTE: quartey was coming off a 14 months layoff:yikes and had been dropped twice and held to a draw by jose luis lopez in his last fight. Trinidad was already killing himself to make the weight when oscar lost to him. and vargas had been shot since the trinidad loss. since that trinidad loss, he had been dropped and almost ko´d by light hitting wilfredo rivera. AND alot of people had quartey winning that fight. sure, oscar was world class, but he lacks that defining victory.
I challenge you to tell who was ELITE, not a NAME and not the condition the fighter was when they fought.. Oba Carr - Tito had already slaughtered him Vargas - See Oba Carr comments Sturm - Let's be real he LOST that fight Camacho - See Oba Carr comments Mayorga - See Oba Carr comments (see a Tito leftover theme) Gatti - NEVER ELITE Chavez, and PErnell Whitaker were CLEARLY not at their peaks but I'll give you that. Oscar has the Most DECEIVING resume in the HISTORY of the sport...He's been in with everybody but ONLY people who knows the sports inside out knows he "cherrypicks" everyone... Steve Forbes anyone..
the names on his resume sure looks fantastic - i was not interested in boxing at that time so i'll let you find the details.
whitaker chavez quartey vargas he got close to beating tito and mosley (2nd fight). and floyd really. :yep i accept he lost his biggest fights though. tito mosley mayweather hopkins
