    Oscar was 5x the welterweight Margarito ever was, and Mosley won a clear decision over him. It's not even close, that is Mosley's best win.
    Oscar's win against Whitaker was highly disputed, and he lost against Trinidad.
    Mosely dominated and stopped Margarito. Nothing disputed about it

        Manny dropped Mosely hard, so now his legs were gone he he had to do a lot of spoiling to make the bell.

          It wasn't a great win for floyd. It's not just about what Ssm did one fight directly before Floyd fight. It was how bad ssm was after the Floyd fight also.
          It is a past prime win for floyd. People can use hindsight when judging a fighter.

          Most of the fighters Floyd beat did nothing after losing to floyd. Apart from Pac and nelo just about.
          But Floyd don't give rematch when people think Floyd s opponent would fair better in rematch

            Your memory is off.

            Marquez going on to putting manny lights out is one the greatest knockouts ever and changed the boxing world’s landscape.

              Most of the fighters Floyd beat did nothing after losing to floyd, meaning floyd s wins were overrated or not that good.
              Jmm win Floyd cheated scales. Jmm was a great fighter but Floyd bloated him up.
              So it's not a great win also. No need to bring his name up.
              So the only 3 fighters Floyd beat who did anything after Floyd beat them, there are big asterix on wins, jmm cheated scales win, Pac and shoulder, IV and no rematch, nel o a green fighter with cW and no rematch.
              All smoke and mirrors Floyd s resume on an industrial scale

                yeah, Mayweather wrecked them

                oh, except Marquez... he wrecked Pacquiao

                Pacquiao IS a great fighter, he proved that BEFORE his fight at 135 with David Diaz... which is when the funny stuff started... and he proved that in the Mayweather fight imho... because that those are the periods that we know he was clean... and he performed much better than expected imho, I thought he would get badly outclassed

                Pac's is excellent, but legacy is based around 3 things... mannyweight (how could you forget LMAO)... taking the right opponent at the right time (often at the lowest point in their career, like Cotto, Hoya, Mosley, Margarito, Hatton)... and, whatever he was taking that required him to refuse random blood tests

                funnily... catchweights, timing, and now steroids (lol)... are accusations that silly pacstains direct at Mayweather... which is actually fkn hilarious

                nobody takes pacfans seriously anymore Hugh, and nor should they

                you had PLENTY of time to cry about steroid abuse, catchweights, and timing... when it was right there in front of your face

                shush now

                    Joe Louis wasnt lineal when Marciano beat him, but most people dont know **** about boxing.
                    Yea and you’re one of them Mosley was past primed he couldn’t take his steroids as he did against Margarito so he was a shell . Mosley fought everyone on steroids than came the Floyd fight and he was tired after 3 rounds because no EPO

                      So Floyd s only got potentially 4 good wins out of 50 fights? And those 4 wins have mammoth sizes asterix. On the day they were disadvantaged. Corrales drsined, Pac injured + Floyd s IV, nel o drained, jmm bloated.
                      And Floyd with no rematch policy leaves many questions unanswered
