    As far as the cut, I'm not the kind of guy who can convict someone on vague conspiracies because I wasn't there to inspect the cut. There are people who tell me Stanley Ketchel was the greatest middleweight ever, but if I didn't see him, should I take their word for it?

    Truth is, he did fight Quartey and Quartey didn't exactly look worse for wear or shot against de la Hoya. It was a good fight, give him that.
    Is not necessary the more famous person gets the better odd. I mean I can give you examples where that wasn't the case.

    Oscar was the favorite because it was seen as a mismatch in the first Mosley fight. Again Shane hadn't looked impressive at WW up to that point.

    And, Mosley had the performance of his career up to that point and really all the way up to the Margarito fight. Which is why it was considered a big upset at the time.

    But, Quartey had slowed down. And, was coming off the longest layoff of his career. And, you know damn well that affected Quartey in a negative way.

    More important than who is when...

    Oscar did an awesome job at fighting big names. When they were seen at not being at their best.

    When did he finally have a rematch with Mosley? When Mosley lost back-to-back against Forrest and look like blah against Marquez at 154....Just another example of the more important than who is when...And, how opportunistic Oscar was. But, for some reason he gets a pass.

    And, I actually know why he gets the pass unlike Floyd and Pac. Because, he wasn't on their level. Hence why both Floyd and Pac are held to a higher standard.

    I just wish people would stop acting like he was some kind of great fighter that fought everybody at their best. When in fact he was quite the opportunistic cherry pick. Now of course he had some fights. Where he actually fought the best at their best. But, it wasn't as often as people make it out to be.

      The debate started over something that was said in jest...Which a couple posters got it besides you and others.

      Anyways...Like I said before. The debate is not if Quartey was winning the fight. Because, he absolutely was. But, that he had showed signs of slowing down. Which is true. And, for the first time had looked vulnerable in that fight.

      And, then add the silly **** about the "cut"....One can put two and two together.

      Right now you're out of depth...Don't debate this. You do not know what you're talking about. Stick with the "autograph, autograph autograph" you do much better that way.

        If you hadn't made it like an essay, I may have gotten past the second paragraph. I'm sure you feel passionate about the subject. What you should do is write about it and send it to a website, I'm sure you'll enjoy that.

        Now, back on topic.

          You're right. I haven't read most of the posts in this thread. Not to mention that I'm tired and lazy as hell. Goodluck in your debate Jro. BTW, I heard DLH was trying to make peace with all the people he hurt. He already apologized to Bob and Poochie meng, I suggest sending him a message on twitter about that autograph...

              See now you doing much better. Stick to saying stuff like this. And, not get into a serious boxing discussion with me. Because, you will be out of your depth.

                Yes very weak, but if I gave you all of my attention, I'd never get any of this work done. But thank you for supporting boxing.

                      But, he was the ultimate fraud. Everybody calls Mayweather a fraud, and Pacquiao a fraud. But, Oscar was the ultimate fraud. He cherrypicked just as much as Floyd and Pac. The only difference is that he wasn't as good as Floyd or Pac to win his cherry picked fights.

                      He has fooled a lot of noobs who goes to boxrec and look up at his. And, just see name after name. But, don't see when the fights actually took place.

                      But, yet people talk about about him like he's a great fighter. When he really wasn't. Floyd and Pac are ATG's. Oscar is not an ATG, but gets talk about by noobs like he kind of is. Just cuz' they go look at boxrec.

                      And, not to mention he was a bigger hypocrite than both Floyd and Pac put together.
                      lmao @ a fan of pacroid saying this
