    just to **** off the *****s

    Pac won his first lineal title in 1998 or something which is like 14 years ago. He's been dominating the sport for ages. He's also been on the ring's p4p top 10 list for over 8 years straight now and was voted as the best fighter of the last decade.

    but yea, Floyd is good too.

    Most do not think he lost to hopkins. You just pulled that out of your ass. Any poll done on here or anywhere else after the had most people saying joe won. It was a close but clear win.

    Um, he beat Whitaker and don't even try to argue that was anything close to a robbery. Pernel didn't do anything in that fight but show some flashy defense. He had almost zero offence and oscar pressed the fight and landed the more effective punches. One jab every 30 seconds doesn't win you a fight when a guy is walking through them throwing 5 punchs combo's and landing 1-2 power punches its pretty easy to see why he won.

    Most people also know Oscar won the 2nd Mosley fights erasing his first loss with him. Oscar fought all of these guys in their primes with exception of Pernell who was still undefeated for years, likewise Chavez was when he and oscar fought. They weren't in their prime, but they weren't nearly washed up either.

    PRIME Trinidad, PRIME Mosley 2, PRIME Vargas, PRIME Quartey, Hernandez, PRIME Ruelas, PRIME Carr, crushed Mayorga like nobody has, knocking him out before Tito did, Chavez twice, Whitaker.
    What else can you possibly ask? Oh ya, he had the balls to step up in weight, way out of his territory and face ATG Hopkins who was no where near washed up and could still argue was prime and handled him well for 6-7 rounds of that fight until Hops caught up and KO'd him. And you gonna hold that fight against him?:huh
    And Oscar gave Mayweather one of his toughest fights to date. you ever seen Floyd's eye all swole up like that? Geez, imagine what a prime Oscar would have done with him. May could barely get past close to washed up Oscar.

    His vagina's been bleeding for years now, nonstop. That probably is almost one of a kind in medical literature.

    Don't forget that Oscar shat his pants while lying on the canvas from the Hopkins button-shot.

    Pretty damn elite. I would say he has dominated for 13 years (14 years in another 6 months). If I was getting technical, I'd always mention the year+ layoff. It is accurate to say he has been dominating for this long, based on his accomplished. Those who don't think so, well, I'd question their integrity and agenda.
