    Oscar and Barrera and JMM in the rematches were the only old boxers that Pac had fought! Oscar and JMM had fought old boxers more than Pac did yet it was Pac who's getting the criticism from idiotic haters!:patsch

    ODLH's legacy will always be running from Trinidad and quitting on his stool against pacquiao.

    Tough, very tough, but past their prime. Gotta love Pac, but facts are facts. ODLH faced plenty of guys just as tough and he fought them in thier absolute prime. There really is no question that his resume is superior. A LOT superior, there are few fighters who can match up with ODLH on the resume.

    Legacy on being a PPV fighter DLH.

    Legacy on fighting big named and dangerous opponents with success it's Pac.

    Yeah, Pacquiao never fought anyone you haven't listed who was as good as Leija or Molina. :patsch

    Why not just start the thread, but not try and rig it in your fighters' favour??

    Lame.

    In answer to your question, Pacquiao.

    And before you start the "*******" crap, check out the 'Arguello Hearns DLH Lewis' thread in the Classic Forum, and view how long and how vociferously I have been defending and advocating Oscar De La Hoya all day. I am a bit of an Oscar fan.

    However, Pac has proved to the greater fighter. Close but definitely clear. No doubt.

    hmm says... Pac. yeah you can make an argument that they were past their prime but you gotta remember that they wanted the rematches and to deny a rematch with any of the big 3 doesn't bode well for boxing or the fans.

    DLH has big name fights.. a gift perhaps from Whittaker and lost big names H2H. A Pac-PBF fight should alleviate all doubt.

    PAC has a trump card against ODLH for he gave him a beating when they fought.

    PAC's legacy will be bigger compared to ODLH.

    dlh won against vargas. quartey.

    All Oscar ??? WTF?

    Oscar spent his last days . . . picking opponents to colllect on PPVs. Pacquiao since he beat MAB has continuosly raise the quality of his opponents just insertng some easy fights in between to keep him busy and sharp. Proof is he planning to fight heavier guys before he retires. :deal

    . . . so think again. :D
