Is there any denying the Delahoya resume is the gold standard of our era?

I challenge you to present a better list of opponents.

If we just talking just about the name of the fighters and not performance or which shape they were in... he of course ranks pretty high...

But I also want to throw in a name that usually gets forgotten: James Toney has also really a great list of opponents...

But DLH of course through the times has an astonishing list:
I mean on Hall of Famers and all-time greats alone

Chavez
Whitaker
Trinidad
Mosley
Hopkins
Mayweather
Pacquiao

Genaro and Camacho probably end up in the Hall too one day

And of course other notable names of his time

I think from the name value alone this is really a big time resume especially in these days where most fighters take the easy way... but performance and the time he fought them of course is also important...

I think past their prime were: Chavez, Whitaker, Camacho (which takes away from the opponents)...
Past his own prime: Mayweather, Pacquiao (which takes away from his own performance)
Prime: Trinidad, Mosley, probably Hopkins and Genaro...

From name value alone is is pretty good but if look into at which time/situation the names make it seem bigger then it was IMO

, it's a pretty funny thread



That's not true, Oscar offered Winky a fight. And, it was Winky who turned it down.



Floyd beat him pretty lopsidedly.

And, how wasn't it fair for Oscar? it was at a catch-weight that favored Oscar more so than B-Hop.

And, shoe shine flurries are not beautiful combinations...Look at JMM or Finito to see beautiful combination punching.

And IDH is right...there are fighters in the last 20 years who have better resumes than Oscar.

I never said other fighters didn't have better resumes, but Oscar's is certainly one of the top, would u mind quoting me where i said other fighters didn't?. . . i have said finito has the best combination punching. . . but oscar had nice combination punching too - shoe shine flurries? lol. . . no. . . oscar threw a beautiful jab, and one of the best left hooks. . he threw beautiful combinations. . . bt no, they were not as nice as finito's or JMM - which ive addressed in PLENTY other posts.

and NO, the floyd loss was not one-sided. oscar won 4 rounds. . two more rounds and it's a draw!. . . that's why i don't get ppl say 116-112 scorecard is a shutout?

that's all. thanks

but everybody is entitled to their opinion. . . that's why boxing is so cool - it's one of hte most subjective sports there is. . .
