    Is De La Hoya top 10 all time at welterweight?

    Or for that matter do you consider him top 10 all time in any of the other weight classes he competed in?

      Absolutely not. Not even close either.

      He's just about Top 20-25.

            Head to head I'm sure he's top 10 at 140 or 130. Possibly 135, but it's obviously a lot deeper there.

              Yeah, head to head his rating would be different than if you compare resumes.

              For example Basilio spent a lot more years at welter than De La Hoya did but I don't think I would favor him to beat Oscar in a head to head matchup.

                  No. From 11-20 tho somewhere in their maybe I can't think of twenty guys right now that would be ahead but I thought of a few and once I started to think of them the possibility of him being in the top ten just didn't add up.
