Oscar's lagacy is what exactly?

"Oscar's lagacy is what?" Good question, I have no idea what his "lagacy" is, although I suspect it's a polite term for "fetish list", in which case losing big fights, bathing in 100 dollar bills, being involved in bad decisions and dressing up in women's clothes are his "lagacy".

 

It pisses me off when people say "Oscar lost all his biggest fights". It's nonsense. The second or third biggest fight in his entire career was the first Chavez bout and the second was big too. Hopkins and Mosley were big fights, but the first Chavez bout made him a star.

The Whitaker bout was huge as well. Bigger than the Hopkins bout, I'd say.

 

Whitaker was robbed

 

Oscar lost all the highest profile fights except Vargas who was already ruined by Trinidad. And in some of his key wins hes got gift decisions.

 

It is because they really have nothing credible to say badly about DLH. They have to try and hype up his 5 losses to horrible defeats that show how DLH was a fraud...the truth is, each of those fights was hightly competative and did nothing to tarnish DLH or the person he was fighting. Isn't that what boxing fans want...two elite guys in the ring battling it out to a close decision...they act like DLH should be quartered and dismembered for not knocking out his opponents in every fight??? Then you have the guys that are hoping to see him get KO'd badly after taking rounds of punishment...it hasn't happened yet..and they are a bit upset over that....LOL. Finally, some of the guys that post here have no reference to the fights you are talking about since they probably didn't follow boxing back then. They were not priveledged enough to remember all the tension and power that surrounded DLH-Chavez 1....it was amazing! :admin

 

I completely agree and by the looks of things he is headed to yet another big fight loss in May if he fights Maywweather again.

He has a much better chance of beating Cotto, but that would require him taking the risk of being severely beaten down. That risk does not exist in a Mayweather fight so we will probaly have ODL vs PBF on May 3rd 2008 gentlemen.

He will be remembered as a guys who came up short in most of his big fights.

Historicaly he will be remembered as a better promoter than he was boxer.
