    i personally think the oscar that fought floyd would beat cotto.... he looked real good, he was just fighting floyd was the problem

First off with Lennox Lewis not because he's british but I think technically he was the best in regards to his all round game he could do it all better than anyone else. Yes Ali was a better boxer and Tyson better coming forward but as far as all round package and being able to do everything really well it was Lennox, not saying he's the greatest but definately top3 IMO and underated by many which will change in time.
      Secondly my biggest bias goes towards my favourite boxer ever and although he won't be considered as an all-time great he could have been if he never wasted his talent and wasn't so bloody ****y and that's Michael Nunn and he is American not british. The most beautiful boxer to watch and he made it look so easy.

      Anyway back to the point in question if both win their upcoming fights which is no forgone conclusion then I'd like to see it happen. But I don't think it ever will.

      I don't think Calzaghe is unbeatable but he is a very good fighter and one of the best this country has produced.
      Dude. Did George Foreman steal your dog or something?

        I think Oscar looked better than usual but I think it was because he was fighting Flyod, especially at the higher weight class. A prime Oscar destroys Flyod at that weight. He looked good b/c he brought the fight to Flyod and Flyod is always on the defense and don't bring no fight to anyone, but at the same time those "punches" Oscar was landing weren't doing a damn thing they were rather Sergio Mora like!!!! Cotto could walk right threw those weak shots and get to his man and take an older De La Hoya out with a crippling body shot!!!!

            Umm... Really? I thought Oscar was tentative and he looked winded after six rounds. I don't think the fight was close, but I think the reason some preceived it to be had more to do with the fact that it wasn't vintage Mayweather. He wasn't sharp. But 75 % of Mayweather was definitely good enough.

            Oscar beating Cotto. I really don't see that. I've seen alot of those guys fights. I just don't see that.
