    Oscar drained down to capture those belts and made a lot of guys come up to see him. Oscar did a lot more at 147 and above, but he lost most of his big fights.

    If you pay close attention you will see the differences.
    I say at 147 Oscar resume is better than Floyd and Oscar fought at 130. But, let me ask you a question. Oscar lost all his big fights right? So do you conider Oscar an ATG? Now be honest.

        That is your comeback? Who has the better resume at 154? What about 140? what about 135? And, then ask yourself is Oscar an ATG?

Which I think will happen proviiding Arum doesn't get in the way. I wasn't saying i don't want to see the best fight the best, but who is the best at the weight? You can say Mosley, cause Mosley beat Marg. But Cotto beat Mosley, and lost to Marg (but we all suspect Marg was cheating). Berto has never lost. Paul Williams is a freak of nature who I advise all WW's to avoid, but he lost to Quitana, who Cotto destroyed. And Like DLH once said "I can't fight everyone". Now I believe Mayweather will fight the winner of Pac vs Cotto, who I think will be Cotto. That will be a good @$$ fight. But Mosley now wants to fight Mayweather after Mayweather called him out numerous times and he declined. Now Mayweather is so called ducking him. Well Williams called Mosley out. Is he ducking Williams? The Mosley fight want happen anytime soon, so people need to give it a rest and look at the other possible fights. And Mosley may want to concentrate on Berto. I think Berto may be in over his head, but I'm sure he doesn't think so, and he doesn't know how to lose. So that fight may be a lot more interesting than we think. And as good as Paul Williams is he can give it a rest. I like the dude, but no one wants to fight him at WW he can call them out, but they'll continue to ignore him. Unless Shane is so hard up for a big fight he'll take that risk. just my thoughts
          Yes. See the difference between me and you?

          I don't have a problem calling out fighters on their bull****.

          Shane should have fought Paul, but guess what,


          Paul is at 160 right now.


          Floyd and Shane are at 147, as are Cotto, Margarito, Pac, Clottey, etc.


          Funny how they've all fought eachother, but Floyd hasn't stepped in the ring with a single one despite being in the division since 05.

                Floyd also beat Oscar at a higher weight, beat the champ, and took his WBC title belt, all while Floyd was at a major disadvantage.

                  I did not say all I said most.

                  He could have won some fights he lost but could have lost some fights he won so I call all that a wash.

                  Oscar would be on the bubble, how deep do you consider ATG top 100 top 250 top 500, how many thousands of dudes have laced up the gloves over the past 125 years. You can fit him in the top 100 if you want once you get down that far all the guys are fairly similar.

                  Or do you define all time great as a fighter that could be great at any point in the sports history, I believe Oscar could have had success at anytime in the sports history.

                      I want Floyd to fight Mosley too but don't think Mosley can beat Floyd
                      and I'll tell you why......... Stamina will be a factor in that fight because
                      Mosley tends to get tired and flat footed AND he swings too wide and
                      sometimes does it off balance. He is a counter punchers dream fight.
                      Anyway I want to see Floyd in there with all the 3 Arum mentioned.
