    No he didn't, De La Hoya and Tszyu both fought three times in three years.

      That and Whitaker was known as an eliete past his best days.

      Also both argument sides were weaker today and none of you guys won. Dios I say maybe edged it out, but not enough to do so convincingly.
      Well,

      When DD says PRIME, he means smb at his best. When he says ELITE he means somebody that is great at what he is doing. DLH was ELITE even with the wrong game plan but he wasn't at his best against none of the last 4 fighters he faced. Therefore, he was not in his PRIME.

      ps: DD introduced those terms to me and how they work and now he got shattered.

        Right. And Tszyu - Hatton was even through eight on nearly everybody's card. And then Tszyu faded badly late.

        So, if Tszyu was prime, so was Oscar.

          And now we have two prime and elite fighters fighting each other.
          Good argument.

          But it doesn't change the fact that Ricky will lose. In fact- it makes me wonder how (despite your perfect reasoning) Ricky could POSSIBLY lose? I mean, since you proved all of this ****.

              I am STILL waiting for you to prove that Oscar wasn't a prime elite.

              You gonna do that?

              And if DD introduced the terms "prime" or "elite" to you, that is a tad embarrassing.

                Vivian Harris, right after he got beat by Maussa. When Witter beat him, Dominicano said that at least now he's got one thing over Hatton, a win over a PRIME and ELITE fighter. Astonishing!

                    It's different to fade against PBF then to fade against Hatton. PBF was pretty much pot shotting ODLH throughout the fight and I don't think that's the same as fading when you have Hatton putting the pressure on you non-stop.

                      Embarassing for you, for sure. Read my resume about Osca'rs last 4 fights please. I notice that you've been ignoring it forever.
