No People tend to forget how unbeatable Floyd was in his Prime. Oscar was a one armed fighter who struggled against an old Pernell Whitaker. But he would have beat a prime Floyd? I loved Mosley at lightweight but his best win was who? Phillip Holliday? What happened with Vernon Forrest Twice? Oscar was being dominated by Ike Qurtey. Harold lederman had him losing. Both lose to Floyd

Mosley you and Oscar are best friends so nobody really takes your opinion seriously.
Secondly, you beat Oscar twice and got outclassed and beaten from post to pillar by Mayweather so of course you gonna say Oscar was better to make yourself look better as a fighter and to excuse your loss to Mayweather.

You people disregard weight all the time, Manny beat a drained Oscar that was 20 pounds lighter than the one Floyd beat but you cant see it lol all you see is whats in front of your face, be like a racehorse with his legs tied together you couldn't see the rope all you see is him running last.

It was a close fight I watched it live. I had it 7-5 for Mayweahter.
To think Oscar would have done slightly better should the fight have taken place in his prime is not unimaginable and people who say that are just haters / floyd fanboys.

Oscar beat ONE good fighter in their "prime" his whole career, Ike Quartey.
