Pernell was 33, but he was 25-0-1 in his last 26 fights, and was an active fighter.How old were Pernell & Chavez when they fought Oscar? Oscar was 4 years older than Floyd. I guess thats a big difference to you. If you dont consider Diego & Castillo HOF you are ******ed. There legendary battle by itself earned them a place in the HOF. I regret it but Gatti will also get that call 1 day & Hatton isnt too far behind.
The inactivity of Oscar affected him more than his age. But clearly 30 is usually part of a fighter's prime, 34 usually is not. And if you look at Oscar in the first Mosley fight, for example, and compare him to the Oscar that fought Floyd, huge difference.Comment

Either you are a liar or you just dont know waht you are talking about. Chavez was 36 when he fought Oscar & Oscar had like a 10 year age advantage. Although it was still a solid victory by Oscar. Oscar was 34 when he fought Floyd & Oscar is only 4 years older than Floyd.Comment

You do realize Oscar also fought Chavez 2 years earlier? And a 30 year old fighter is usually better than a 24 year old fighter.

Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. The fact stands that Oscar loss to Floyd & since they both have impressive resumes the edge goes to Floyd.Comment

I'm genuinely suprised by the poll results.....maybe I'm a bit of an Oscar lover but I just don't see it.Oscar has been making 1 million plus since like his 12th pro fight and has fought damn near everyone and many were fighters that will be remembered for a long,long time.Oscar never shyed from a challenge and even tho he has lost some fights I think the list he provides has more ATG type fighters than floyds.Comment
