Who is greater Erik Morales or Oscar De La Hoya.

[paulf]

Oscar's big fights:

Ruelas W
Hernandez W
Chavez 1 & 2W
Gonzalez W
Whitaker W
Camacho W
Quartey W
Gatti W
Vargas W


He's had 6 loses all to HOF/ATG Quality boxers. 10 - 6 in major fights and you want to talk most??

THIIISSS times a million, most posters on here act like they got into boxing in 2005. Oscar beat a ton of legends.

Morales and it's not even close.

Junior Jones was a beast at Bantamweight and Morales made easy work outta him.

That true, even Morales stated the Junior Jones was the hardest puncher he ever faced.

Counts for Floyd so why can't Oscar??

Besides, Gatti fought at that weight a couple of fights even before Oscar. That's like saying Oscar's loss shouldn't count against Hopkins.

I don't consider Oscar a big win for Hopkins either. So you can take that argument for somebody who does.

Floyd beat Gatti in another weight-class... What the hell did Gatti ever do at WW? And, I also don't consider Gatti a big win, I mean it was nice but nah...Not in the top 10 of Floyd best wins IMO... So take that argument for somebody who does think Is Floyd big win.

However, since you did bring up Floyd. Why was Floyd-Gatti PPV and not Oscar-Gatti? If it was a big fight like you say it was, and the popularity of Oscar you would think they would milk it for PPV? But, since everybody trashed the fight because it wasn't big at all. It was considered a huge mismatch, because that is what it was Oscar picking on a smaller fighter and fighting him at WW. That they just put it on reg HBO.

No bro it was not a big fight at all. ANd, if Gatti is on Oscar top 10 biggest wins then this thread should be ended.

Look I know you dislike Oscar cause he hurt your feelings as a little boy. I'm just talking to the wind. I can easily counter your **** but like I said, it won't matter. You're a lot easier to talk to when it doesn't involve Oscar. lol

Erik "El Terrible" Morales

[dans]

Huge Eric Morales fan. He is the greater fighter IMO. But I also think DLH doesn't get nearly enough credit from the boxing world that he helped create.

[paulf]

Sweet Peas confidence never came back. Look at him tackle Oscar out of frustration.

So yeah, going with Oscar. But I will say that, if Morales is crazy enough to make that fight with Marquez... and somehow wins.... Ill rate him higher than Oscar. Because that **** would be insane.

Bro, Oscar is hated and it clouds their little pee brain.

When the hell did Oscar lose to a David Diaz?
A Raheem?

ATG fighters right there.

You know what else?? Oscar had less than 25 fights and he fought the P4P#1 boxer in the world. But wait, they will say Whitaker was washed up and then turn around and give Trindad credit for the Whitaker win AND they fail to realize Whitaker had like an 8 fight winning streak after the draw(which he should of won) with Chavez.

If he was washed up he wouldn't even be the #1 boxer in the world.

DLH no question.
He contributed so much to the sport he loves.
He has tons of heart, and had power and speed in his prime.
He devastated great opponents in the 90s.
He did lose some important fights, and some of the decisions were questionable but to say Morales is greater is absurd.
