      They both beat their countries legends when they were old, Tito beat camacho, Oscar beat chavez.

      They both sorta re-launched their career by beating skill limited tough guys and made them fight past their real weights. Tito Mayorga, Oscar Gatti.

      both beat old drug damaged whitaker, and didnt look good doing it.

      Both had some trouble with Vargas before stopping him and both got stopped against hopkins.
      Felix ate Winky's jab all nite and Oscar ate Sturms.Oscar had trouble with Felix, I wonder where Winky would be if he was given a shot 5 or 6 years ago instead everyone ducking him.

        You do realize the huge gap in TALENT between Ike Quartey and the guys you mentioned right?

          Both De La Hoyas and Trinidads records are better than Chavez, thats good enough for me.

            He'd be losing to Fernando Vargas, Julio Cesar Green and Hary Simon.

            One of the biggest myths in boxing is that Winky was avoided. He got plenty of opertunities, but had always came up short until his fight with Mosley.

                  Didn't you saw the fight? He start landing some good shots in the later rounds and DLH looked exhausted as hell...







                  Remember now?...

                    Damn look at those blood soaked trunks that Tito has on.. Oh yeah I remember those were from DLH busting him up for Rounds 1-8!! Oscar was masterful for the first 8 rounds..Compubox shows him landing almost double of what Tito did!! Tito's reaction at the end of the fight said it all.. He knew that he lost and was suprised when he was given the nod!!

                      hmm

                      I don't know about "legacy" or whatever that BS means to people, but who had a better career?

                      Oscar. Not by far though. He beat Vargas who had taken quite a beating from Tito. Oscar lost a close fight to a prime Shane Mosley and beat Mosley easily in the rematch. Oscar has never been beaten down by anyone really. Tito has. I suppose that's why I give Oscar a slight edge.

                      Also, if Oscar fights and beats Judah his rep will increase again.
