By that i mean a ridicuously popular fighter who broke box office records and brought boxing into the mainstream...but in there biggest fights fail to get the job done..discuss
Vargas, Whitaker, Quartey, Hernandez, & Chavez fights would disagree.

yes. ricky's only really fought 3 elite fighters... floyd, jlc and tszyu and tszyu was semi-retired and jlc was shot.
He loses now and that's only 2 losses, and to guys who were the best in the world at the time. He wouldn't be seen as nearly as big a choke artist as DLH imo.
still though Manny and Floyd are hands down 2 of the better fighters Manny's fought in his career.
IMO Saturday's fight vs Pacquiao is very huge for Ricky's legacy .. yes a loss would only be #2 on Hatton, but still a pretty big hit to go 0-2 vs the #1 Pound For Pound Fighters in the sport.

what you talking bout?Oscar lost 2 a prime sugar shane prime tito a beast in hopkins and 2 1.p4p fighters. Ricky wouldnt even last against a prime tito or a prime shane or hopkins and yet oscar managed to be right there with them

i THINK WHAT HE WAS TRYNA SAY IS THAT OSCAR LOST BOUTS THAT HE SHOULD HAVE WON( XCEPT HOPKINS) In the late rounds against tito and shane he didnt go after it and take it and as a result he took the 1st too loses of his career
