    What had a more negative impact on DLH's Legacy.
    Running the championship rounds against Tito or taking the Pac fight.

    DLH has stated that he was tired against Tito and that his legs were shaking. In that state, who knows what would've happened if he hadn't stayed away?

    But obviously, the loss in that fight matters more to his legacy than the Pacquiao loss.

    I don't think too many people years from now will really hold the Pacquiao loss that much against DLH though. Sure, at the time, DLH was the favorite and perceived to be cherry-picking a tiny opponent. But it'll just be looked upon as the fight where DLH went from looking like a fighter merely past-his-prime to a shot fighter. He looked like a zombie.

    Neither. What's worse was actually getting humiliated in the fashion that he did against Money, a guy that was coming up in weight to fight Oscar at his natural weight class of 154 lbs. Unlike the CongROIDSman who drained Oscar and had him looking like an extra in one of George A. Romero's zombie movies.

    the pac fight. it was a no win situation for him. even though he had 3 full months to train, he simply understimated the little guy by not training properly and coming in weighed drained. it was humilating because the little whom he was supposed to beat handily pummeled his pretty face and made him quit.

    Oscar was 34 years old, part time and did a better against Floyd than pretty much every opponent that Floyd has ever fought, regardless of your scorecard.

    Answer: Tactics versus Tito were ridiculous. Oscar's loss to Pacquiao as significant as Leonard's loss to Norris ie.) Not significant.

    I don't think either fight hurts his legacy much The loss versus Trinidad was questionable (in fact many people have stated that DLH developed the blueprint to beat Tito later used succesfully by other opponents) and the loss to Pacquiao came at a time when he was fading.
