holy shnikies, SturmRules makes a great point, the world has officially come 2 an end

Oscar had a huge lead (seemingly) and his corner thought that the judging would be legit, so they told their fighter to put it on cruise-control.... they forgot, though, that Oscar-Tito wasn't the real fight that night, it was really Arum vs. King, and King won big-time

If it was DLH's corner, then his corner ******. I don't care if you think you're winning every round, you don't just run around the ring trying not to get KO'd. LMAO.

That's why Ruiz was the greatest fighter of mexican roots. He always moving forward taking the fight to the enemy. You have to admire that ****.

Oscar will be remembered, first and foremost, as the biggest non-heavyweight draw of his era. I honestly believe his accomplishments and resumes will be secondary in his legacy.

Is he overrated? By some, yes. To me, he's not in the top 50 or 60 all-time. Some may think i'm being harsh. I don't.

And who the hell questions Trinidad's heart? Before his fight with Hopkins, he rose from every knockdown he suffered (which were a lot) to stop his opponent. If that isn't heart, i don't know what is. Before people start labeling me a Trinidad lover, yes, i'm a fan of him. But he's not in the top 50 all-time either.

So who in the hell is? Let me guess Castillo right... both should be in the top ten or something !

Tito and Oscar are not in the top 50 or 60 of all time??? wow!!! you should be banned for life

I know it sounds like an insult--almost to the point of blasphemy--to even suggest that Trinidad and DLH are not in the top 50 all-time. They're probably in my top 100. Before you guys go crazy again. Think about that for a second. That probably puts them in at least the top 95th percentile of fighters to ever step into the ring. Wow, what an insult.

Listen, i regard Trinidad and DLH as two of the best fighters of their era. I simply think there were many that were greater. If you believe otherwise, i'm fine with that (unless you have them in the top 30; then you're just high). In my opinion, to place Trinidad and DLH above the fighters i have ahead of them to would an insult to those who deserve a top 50 spot. I'm just telling it how i see it.

Top 10 all-time? Nope. They're not even in the top 10 welterweights of all-time.

10 welterweights that were greater/better:

Ray Robinson
Mickey Walker
Thomas Hearns
Ray Leonard
Henry Armstrong
Jose Napoles
Emile Griffith
Kid Gavilan
Joe Walcott
Carmen Basilio

Trinidad probably cracks my top 15. And this is coming from a big fan of his.
