    Get off the crack pipe kid. Trinidad is an ATG. DLH also outboxed a prime, roided-up Mosley in the rematch. Mosley himself happens to be an ATG.

    - His win over Trinidad was better than any of Floyds wins. Fair point, no argument from me. I have to give Oscar props for that win.

    - Mosley 2, I had it a draw.

    - I don't rate the Vargas win as much as you do. It was a good Win but I like the Corrales and Castillo 2 wins better and Cotto win aswell.

    No, he ran during the championship rounds and was beaten decisively throughout his career.

    Trinidad is an ATG at 147, and most people felt he was even better at 154 than he was at 147. He also got a title at 160. Handed Vargas, Reid, Campas, and Carr their first losses along the way. He's absolutely an ATG.

    Mosley was one of the best lightweights ever, and was very dangerous at 147 as well and, to a lesser extent, at 154 too. Handing Prime Oscar his only clean loss and his insane lightweight run narrowly make him an ATG.

    I never picked apart Oscar resume. I already said he fought better competition than Floyd, I also said earlier in terms of fighting level of competition, that Oscar fought best competition in the 20 years, better than Floyd, Pacquiao, Hopkibs etc. I'm not dissing his his damn resume. I was pointing out Whitaker was clearly past his best, I didn't bother read what you said because I know I'm right and know what i saw, and if you argue that he weren't past it, then your deluded. The guy was sniffing coke, boxing weren't serious. You can keep making excuses blah blah I don't care, I thought Rivera sucked, from what I saw and looking at his record. Hes a journey man.

    Did I ever say Whitaker was prime when Oscar fought him? Nope. He wasn't shot either though. You stopped reading because you're a one-note drone like tliang.

    Neither Trinidad or Mosley are ATG. Neither would make the top 50 or 60. They are hall of famers not ATG's. Shane wouldn't be higher than about 80.
