    Oscar isn't going to knockout someone with his right unless they are really on the verge of going. Oscar's jab is so good that it gets past a lot of defenses, so it would be harder to defend against.
    Gotcha, is that why when he quits using the jab, he's not even half as effective?

      It's really more of a mental thing, but just because Oscar stops using it, doesn't mean he is a two handed fighter.

      If the jab stops working...that's it. He either trys to go with the left hook or flurries (which I guess consists of both hands, but when I think two handed fighter I think of power and effectiveness in both hands).

        considering he has lost 4 out of his last six fights with one of the four losses to a jr welter and a lightweight giving him all the hell he could handle, it is very safe to say oscar is feather fisted.

        where was the jab or left hook against fmj, forbes, mosley, sturm, b-hiatch. or even heart?

            Darn, I forgot to put "Neither hand is worth a damn" as an option.

              I think his hands would have been better balanced if he was trained to fight as a southpaw, as he is left handed. But since that's not the case, his right isn't that powerful at all. It probably worked out better for him though.

                study your boxing history. ocross dresser only agreed to fight vargas YEARS after he was thoroughly WRECKED by trinidad. when the WORLD knew it was safe fight for him.

                and the only thing that got hurt in his fight with trinidad is his legacy. he danced and ran like a britany spears back-up for 4 rounds.

                come september i'll be sitting in my game room, watching my 70' plasma while ocross dresser gets handed his sissy ass by a jr welter.

                figure this. trinidad comes out of a three year retirement and fights rjj and now looks to be in next with taylor. while the golden ***** is fighting jr. welters and lightweights that couldn't even win the contender.

                so youngster, if your gonna hang on a man's nuts at least make sure it's a man....

                    lol Oscar despite running away the last four rounds EMBARRASSED Tito in the first part. Hitting him at will. Oscar has never been dominated the way Tito has with a JAB, cried and then retired. Oscar managed to beat Vargas despite that fact that he was taking steroids. So he's more of a man than either of them.

                    And wtf is with you being so bitter toward Oscar? You wish you had his ladies? Envy is for bitches, get some balls.

                      He was a one handed fighter a few years ago but his right hand has gotten better, he doesn't look as awkward throwing it as he did before.
