    One thing to consider when comparing Oscar to guys like Cocoa, is that Oscar was a brilliantly managed media star(earned partly through his maatuer accomplishments and talent to be fair), rarely ever going into big fights without the edge.No fighting tough guys he'd never seen fight on short notice, or having to take fights when not in the best of shape etc..

    That's absolutely true, but it's also true of journeymen today. Just because Darnell Boone takes 2/3 of his fights on short notice, doesn't get to quit his day job and has to take public transportation to get to his fights, doesn't mean I'll rate him ahead of someone who gets all the star treatment advantages.
