    I can't remember but wasn't Margarito DLH's sparring partner years ago?
    Yup Tony sparred with Oscar a while back and from what everybody here in Southern Californa remembers is that Tony was busting Oscar up in sparring.

        I think currently he'd get either p4p champ position at his time of retirement or come as close as you can get (top 3-4 at the very least).

        Mayweather is the top p4p fighter in the world and cotto is the 5th (on many people's p4p fighter list)...

        so a win over both would about earn him that title.

        In terms of legacy i'd say it puts him in the top 15-20 of all time greats pretty easily.

        i think he'd have an easier time with cotto than mayweather...

        i can see him beating cotto before i see him beating mayweather (just based on styles and how oscar's matches up; he'd match up better against cotto)...

        Oscar has a chance here...maybe with the tune up fight with forbes; and floyd sr in his corner he might have everything laid out right and very well could beat floyd...

        he COULD.

        its going to be a close tough fight...its not going be easy and if oscar wins it would be a pretty fight...

        However i have not counted oscar out just yet. i think he can do it...

          If he beats Mayweather, he's certainly got a shot against Cotto, if Corley can rock Cotto, Oscar can KO him. However, it would be tough to do that if Cotto is constantly backing Oscar up, which he will almost certainly do.
