    Oscar lost to Trinidad, though it was close. He arguably lost to Whitaker. Lost to Mosley, though he arguably won at least one fight, and lost to Hopkins. He also arguably lost to Sturm. He lost a lot of his big fights.

    Now he's still got good wins over Ruelas, Genaro, Chavez, Gonzalez, Quartey, Carr, Gatti, Vargas, etc.

    And given he probably deserved the Trinidad fight, and at least one Mosley fight, he's an ATG and lock HOF fighter. But he's not greater then Mayweather. And Mayweather easily has the longevity battle won. He's been one of the top P4P fighters since 1998. That's over 15 years. Oscar was only P4P for maybe half that time.
    One question you have to ask yourself is would Mayweather still be undefeated if he fought ODLH's schedule?

      Manfredy wasn't a good or real good win, but a decent one at those times.

      Point it, Floyd's got like 18 good or solid, or decent wins. Who has that many right now??? No one

      Floyd's been P4P for over 15 years. That's far and away better then anyone else right now.

        The toughest fight would have been Felix Trinidad. I think Floyd sons Mosley at any weight or time. Mosley wasn't prime, but neither was Floyd. Floyd in his prime could beat a past prime Pernell, though I can't imagine how ugly that fight would be.

          Don't forget Hopkins and Sturm

            Oscar was much bigger then Floyd. Floyd would never have made it to 160.

                Oscar was bloated as heck when he fought Sturm. His face was fat as I don't know what.

                Oscar should've never been in the ring with Hopkins either for he was also too small just like Floyd would be

                    Who says he is?

                    He didn't lose to Whitaker. He also won a lot of his big fights.


                    If Mayweather wouldn't of been P4P for 15 years with the resume Oscar had. That's my opinion. Hell he took off more than a year and let the WWs beat each other. How does that count for P4P material?

                      You don't think Oscar was bigger then Floyd??? Really???

                      Like I said, you can post ****** images, but can't argue for s**t.
