    Some of the greats have more than 10 loses, even against guys who aren't even HOFs.

      Then why does it count as a big victory for Winky against Mosley at the weight??

          And if it wasn't for that the fight would of went the 12th. Maybe even with Vargas winning. That a ruined fighter??
          If it wasn't for what? The fact that Vargas was getting tagged with right hands over and over?

          Let's stick to the topic.

          Vargas was ruined by Tito. He was nearly stopped in his next fight by a past his prime fighter. Then stunned and hurt in the fight after that.

          Remember when Oscar used to say he'd never fight Vargas? Because Vargas had disrespected him? Then he gave old a** Chavez a rematch because...he disrespected him? Then after Tito KO'd Vargas and then other guys beat him up Oscar wanted to fight him all of a sudden? Please.

            Even if Vargas wasn't ruined, it's still Oscar's best win, which is pathetic for a so called ATG fighter.

              True but Oscar was past his best at that point. I would never try to deny that.

                You haven't proven **** about Vargas being ruined by Tito. Ruined fighters don't do what Vargas did.

                Oscar would of beaten Vargas at any point in his career. Even if it were to of been before Tito.

                    I think because of Mosleys name more than anything else. Mosley has never proven that he could be a force at that weight other than beating Vargas and Mayorga. That's not enough for me. Vargas was done and Mosley struggled with Mayorga. He can still punch at that weight though. I'll give him that. But he doesn't look as fluid or quick at 154.
