    How can Trinidad be the better welterweight when they met head to head at welterweight and Oscar schooled him?

      Oscar's legacy is smudged by the fact that he's recieved alot of gifts during his career. He technically should have 2 more losses (Whittaker, Sturm). And possibly one more (Quartey).

        Its funny how people like to say that DLH schooled Tito, when at best it could have been 115-113 DLH..... that is not being schooled.

        If that is the case, then one can say that Sturm schooled DLH.

            115-113 !! You were obviously watching that fight with the rose colored Puerto Rican glasses on. Oscar won rounds 1 - 8 easily.. Some have even said he won round 9... Tito knew he lost.. Look at his reaction

              You have got to be joking if you think that DLH beat Mosley either of the times.

                1-8 hahahahahah that is quite funny... he did win 6 of the first eight, but not all 8.

                DLH lost to Sturm... a B class fighter.

                  I'm not kidding you... I feel that DLH won the second Mosley fight...

                  but the funny thing is.. most of the people would agree with me

                    I think DLH did better in the second fight, but still it was a close one and could go either way imo...No doubt Mosley won the first fight clearly.

                      I feel sorry for you that your insecurity about your nation extends to a predisposition for handicapping fights involving those fighters that share the same heritage as you. Oscar won rounds 1-8 that is indisputable. That fight was a travesty and a robbery.
