    So because he beat Oscar decisively which Tito couldn't do makes him a beast?

        Before that fight Mosley wasn't held in much higher regard than Berto (before he was beaten).

            Oh ok. Well in that case, thats obviously not true. He lost plenty, but to hof caliber opponents. Some may say ATG opponents.

              Mosley wasn't considered a beast when Oscar fought him...Both times...

              He wasn't truly tested by anyone prior to the first Oscar fight. And, looked like blah in 3 previous fights against Oscar in the rematch.

              So what made Mosley a beast? Especially prior to the first fight? Is it because he KO'd a few above average LWs?

                You pretty much answered it there. Just like Tito knocking out some decent WWs and Jr. Middles.

                  a fighter without a great right hand who isn't smart or focused enough to SECURE rounds that was known for fading later in the fight isn't going to beat Floyd or manny

                    Well Tito knocking out some decent WW's, JMW's, who I assume you comparing to the fighters Mosley knocked out....Wouldn't make Tito a beast at MW now would he?

                    I don't recall calling Tito a MW beast, if I did, let me know...Even though his first MW win was by far more impressive than any WW win Mosley at prior the first Oscar fight.

                    Unless you calling Mosley a beast at LW...But, WTF does that have to do with the Oscar fight at WW?

                      He is right, Floyd didnt fight a prime Oscar he fought a part time fighter who was inactive, and semi retired.
                      and knowing all that, a case can be made that Oscar beat him, official cards show a single point SD.... and this is against a past his best version of DLH against a prime PBF...
                      That leads me to beleive that a peak DLH, has enough not only to get the win but make it clear
