4. He ran away from Tito
5. He got stopped by B Hop
6. He robbed Strum
7. He disgraced himself against Pac

1. That article is utter shite...

2. Most Mexicans don't hate DLH

3. The few that do is mostly due to him wooping JCC

For example I DISLIKE chavez ... Why? Because i wasn't born when Chavez was wooping ass, and got into boxing when DLH was comming up and became a huge fan of him. After his fight with Chavez, Chavez was very mad he lost to DLH that he started walking out with DLH opponents, he started talking bad about him. This IMO lead to some mexicans hatting DLH, and some younger guys like me disliking chavez. All and all i can't really hate the guy because he is mexican, and was a great champion but he needs to get over his damn lost to Oscar... i bet it still haunts him at night.

Young Mexicans hate JCC?? In his prime he would beat ODH bad.

I know a few that hate him because they are huge Oscar fans. Don't get me wrong most love that guy but like i said a few. I would have to disagree with you btw.. I don't see prime Chavez, beating a prime DLH. Oscar was a great boxer like Medrick and we all know he has a hell of a chin so i don't see him being stop, nor being outbox. Remember a middle weight stop Oscar with a bodyshot so don't bring that up.

1. He beat an over-the-hill JCC Superstar.
2. He was a celebrity carefully crafted and constructed by the U.S. press.
3. He beat Vargas after Vargas had been destroyed by Tito.
4. He ran away from Tito like a cheap hooker from a slap-happy pimp.
5. He got stopped by B Hop with a grazing body shot, after which he proceeded to pound the canvas with his fist in an amusing show of "frustration."
6. He robbed Strum in the eyes of everyone but himself. Well... and blind DLH fans.
7. He disgraced himself against Pac. (Ahh yes... nothing else need be added here.)
8. (I added # Remember Vargas' famous quote before his fight with Tito: "THIS Mexican...won't run." This alone speaks as to how the average Mexican boxing fan did not appreciate how Oscar ran away from Tito in the last three rounds of the fight, regardless of the reason. A dislike that was obviously shared by the three judges judging the fight.

Sorry... I took the liberty of editing your post a bit.

every great fighter's record can be picked apart like that. I can make a thread bashing the careers of tito, julio cesar chavez, roy jones, joe calzaghe, floyd mayweather but that is just something that haterz do.

Hey wow... hadn't seen a post from you in awhile. You don't get on much, do you. I remember when I first started on the forum. My first "sad-clicks" for Oscar-bashing were from you. At first I took it personally. Then I realized we're just fans of different fighters, and with VERY different opinions about the same facts. So yeah... I'm a hater, I guess. But usually I'm pretty detailed about my reasons. Maybe not 100% right about all of them, but very passionate about them. But as Yogi Berra would say... boxing is 90% facts and 90% opinions.

De La Hoya doesn't fit the mold of the rugged Mexican fighter, but I think he is popular with Mexican/Americans, if not Mexicans.

I would give a prime JCC the edge over a prime DLH.

A "prime" JCC . That is something many seem to forget when an old boxing great looses against a young prospect "Oh my gaaawd! He totally beat The Legendary X guy! "....sure! He beat The Great Legend X who happened to stay in the ring longer than he should.
