    He didn't fight enough, and seemed to stop caring.

    Pissed me off because he was my favorite fighter, but it seemed like years would pass by in between fights.

    This. After he got robbed in this fight, he stopped caring as much and became a part-time boxer, part-time promoter.

    Hopkins.
    Though he was above his weight, it was the last time he was in shape, had fast hands and was quick on his feet. In Mayorga fight he is soft looking, flat footed, and relies on power mostly.

    Imo the last fight oscar was in his prime was against the first mosley fight. When oscar came back vs gatti, oscar change his style thanks to mayweather sr but oscar didnt look better imo cause he actually hesitated to go for the kill in which vs castillejo in which he could have ko him very early or atleast in the middle round. And i agree with foremen in which if oscar had his old trainer not name mayweather sr, he would have tko vargas alot earlier.

    This is what I think. The Hopkins fight may apply too, but that was the last time we saw him that sharp. I could easily see him losing faith in the system.

    He turned the clock back a bit with Mayorga, but that was more out of anger than it was the abilities of youth.

    I've always thought Mosley 2 was the last time Oscar looked like he was in his prime.
