    No wrong answer here.
    At their best, I'd take Oscar De La Hoya

    I'd say its a toss up between Oscar and Mosley, but i gave the slight edge to Oscar.

    I was going to say too close to call but I choose Tito since hes behind on votes.

    Mosley.I just feel that he has lasted the test of time better than the other two. It's a shame a match up with Trinidad couldn't have happened but I'm fairly confident that a motivated and fit Mosley beats him. In fact I'm fairly sure a motivated and fit mosley has the measure of 99% of 147-154lb fighters over the last decade.

    Because of his style of fighting I choose Tito. However Oscar is not too far behind.

    IMHO a lot of people here are giving too much credit to Mosley lately after beating Margarito.

    I voted Oscar, but I think Tito is only very slightly behind him.

    Mosley is the obvious 3rd place for me.

    Yep, this poll was made last year and Oscar came out very far ahead. But from last fights and the excitement they produce, mosley will have a better run.

    Truth is these are the Big 3 for me. All of them deserve to be called great. Only thing that sucks is we never saw a Mosley vs Tito because Mosley took that damn fight against Wright. :|

    True that. But Mosley had the chance after he beat Oscar at 147lbs to go up to 154lbs and face Tito but he didnt. Only after Tito lost to Bernard and retired did Mosley called him out.

    Agree, Mosley beats Margarito - a man who may well have cheated his way to the top - and suddenly Mosley is 'back to his best'.

    De La Hoya only really lost one meaningful fight in his prime, whereas Mosley lost to Wright twice, and Forrest twice.

    DLH by a slight, although clear margin.

    Then Trinidad with Mosley right behind them.
