Two overrated but very lucrative careers. Who had the better career?
Who had a better career? Mike Tyson or Oscar de la Hoya?

Nothing overrated about DelaHoya. He could do it all. He was Sugar Ray Leonard turned down a notch. Go watch Some old footage. Mike on the other hand...well when its was over it was over. But that was the thing about Tyson it was short and sweet(like his early fights lol) and good while it lasted so you always wonder what if....Comment

LMAO!!!!!!!!! Wow, DLH is over rated? He fought everybody, at the top of their game, at anytime. DLH never ducked any man, and his resume is full of the most elite names outside of Winky Wright, which would have ****** anyway because that guys a snoozefest waiting to happen, and he BEAT most of them.
DLH had an amazing career and if anything he gets more hate and less respect than he truly deserves.
You are obviously pissy because you're Puerto Rican, and Oscar dealt with a lot of hate simple because he was a very good looking guy who would knock you the **** out.
Tyson's career was an amazing one with how he dealt with opposition, but DLH definitely fought bigger names.Comment

He lost all his biggest fights? The huge comeback vs Quartey and he beat Tito regardless of what the judges picked.
There's no shame in losing to Hopkins and he split with Mosley, I mean some of these decisions he got were bogus. He did lose to Sturm though.
DLH wasa great fighter, HOFer who had incredible skill and was a beautiful boxer to watch.
Mike Tyson was INCREDIBLY overrated, his opponents level was no where near where DLH were.
DLH had the much better career, resume and it's not really that close.Last edited by Cuauhtémoc1520; 06-25-2010, 09:36 AM.Comment
