I don't think the trinidad fight was it.

When he went to 160. From there on out, he went downhill. Lot of people thought he won the 2nd Mosley fight anyways.

Honestly, I saw slight slippage in the Forbes fight and obviously the Manny Pacquiao fight was the fight we all saw it.

Oscar has always been such an up and down fighter, it's really hard to tell when he truly began to decline.

That's a great picture of Nard, and Winky! Look at Winky! He just doesn't care! I truly believe he would fight King Kong.

If you're talking about physically I'd say either his fight with Sturm or B-Hop;

his biggest downfall was probably changing so many trainers, imo he was at his best when he was trying to emulate Miguel Canto's style

When he realised he could make $$$ by not winning and just boxing someone as famous or half as famous.
