    I bet money on Oscar against Tito and it ended up biting me on the ass. That's really not the most upsetting thing to me though. I had no idea that boxers were allowed to change outfits during the fight. You see, I had to go the bathroom after the 9th round was over and when I came back, to my surprise, Oscar was wearing this to start the 10th rd...

      I don't think I agree, bro. Vargas once had a rock solid chin. I mean, he could take a shot. He lost his punch resistance after the Tito fight and steroids can't bring that. Right after Oscar stopped him I specifically remember Larry Merchant saying, "Vargas had a six pack on his stomach but not on his chin" or something like that.

        Oscar lost to a bodyshot, I can't think of many ATGs that lost to bodyshots in the prime of their career.

            How about Roth's?

            He scored 3 of the first 4 for Trinidad.

              I respectfully disagree. Vargas never beat a top fighter in his division again. Cotto did that just a couple months ago. Yes, the beating Cotto took from Margarito was horrible but what happened to Vargas against Tito...ugh. Horrible reffing from Nady. That was too much to put on such a young fighter.
              Wasn't Rivera ranked a top 10 154 at the time Vargas beat him??

              So? When he beat Mosley he was the obvious candidate to fight Oscar. Didn't happen.
              After he beat Mosley he lost to Mayorga. Nice try.



              Really, I don't care. I never expected Oscar to fight Winky if he refused to fight Vargas when Vargas was on top.
              Because Oscar was at WW. Once he moved up he fought Vargas. I'm willing to bet if Oscar were to of moved up before Trinidad, he would of fought Vargas before him.

                  The way he shut out Camacho was also impressive.

                  Vargas win is also impressive.

                  H is in the top 100 or borderline.He fought everybody.
                  If you gonna use that logic then I'm gonna go ahead and say he lost against Whitaker..

                    Sorry everyone else he fought where B class or less fighters.

                    I think the reason he got so far was cause of his somewhat so called good looks, and because he beat past there prime fighters. Hate if you want, but this guy is very overrated!!!!
                    Man stop hating on Oscar! He would **** on Cotto...believe me. Tito got a boxing lesson from him. Mosley used roids. Mayweather ran all night, but they gave him the fight because he is undefeated. He was suppose to lose to hop. At least he gave Hopkins a fight, unlike Tito. You could have beat him the night that he fought Pac. Come on man...watch some boxing. Watch Oscars fights in his prime...he was the best. (I'm not even an Oscar fan but i recognize greatness) Maybe you are just trying to stir things up on the boards, but man its annoying as ***. cotto got smashed by a B fighter in Margarito (Yes I am a fan of Marg, but he is all chin and not an A fighter). One thing about Oscar is that he was out of his prime quickly. Cotto will be done soon! You tell me how much Cotto has left?

                      Furthermore, at no point did his corner tell him to run. They told him what they had been telling him the first seven rounds, "Don't get careless, just box." And since he was supposedly boxing so well before, why did he stop? Hilarious. Like his corner said, "run, run, run!"
                      he gave tito a boxing lesson
