          Floyd's the more impressive fighter no doubt, but Oscar's resume win or lose speaks for itself. He'll be remembered for fighting the best guys and being an ambassador for the sport.

          I can't speak on how high Floyd is on an ATG list (which is really all opinionated anyway), but I would understand how some would place Oscar over him and vice versa, depends how you look at it (it's not just based on wins solely and more on who you fought in your time).

          Floyd IMO hasn't lived up to his potential since he reached the top. Let's see what he does in the next year or 2.

              floyd takes it.
              People don't mention that, how DLH didn't fight Winky or Forrest. I agree, DLH lost most of his big fights. In my opnion though, DLH got robbed (Tito, SSM II) and got gifts (Strum, Ike, Whitaker).

                  But at that point, that was like asking Floyd to fight Paul Williams now. Does anyone believe that'll ever happen? I don't.

                  He still fought dangerous guys, Winky and Vernon simply wasn't a smart business move for Oscar at that point of his career (154-160lbs).

                    End of the day people go on about Oscars resume including Floyd, BHop, Mosley and Pacquiao on it. He LOST to them all. I could get in the ring with the best fighters in the world and get torn up, would that make me a great fighter?

                    Who the **** has Floyd beat?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't get it, he has never been in a war! Gatti? Old DLH? Lost to an old Castillo! Hatton is a bum from hell! He's a ***** that runs! When he gets beat it is going to be funny, yet sad. Manny will tear him a new ahole and so would Cotto! Please wake up.
