    Me and my friend were having an arguement about why DeLa Hoya was so popular, this list is comprised of other great fighters that floated around De La Hoya in similiar divisions around similiar times, the only one on the list he didn't fight was tzu, all these guys were just as good as him if not better yet recieved less than a quarter in money /popularity as Oscar.

    Oscar was popular with the ladies and he had that charisma that few fighters or people possess. He was a pretty good fighter as well.

    1.pac... he's done something that's NEVER been done.. start at 106 pounds and dominate everyone up to 150 pounds. sure,he's lost a couple along the way... but he's won titles and had some of the craziest beatings ever administered to fighters... and along the way, he beat a few all time greats and gave them all time great beating.
    2. Mayweather ... No one can beat this guy... if he gets ko'ed ..his rankings could drop.
    3. Mosely... has done a lot in boxing...and still doing it. at his best, pretty unbeatable.
    4 delahoya... same as Mosely.

    5. Whitaker... all defense..no offence.
    6 Hopkins... has lost all BIG fights...
    7. Chavez ... mediocre opposition.
    8 Kosta tsu..all he did, he did in one div... but he was the king.

    9. Tito Trinidad... one dementional..even at his best, he wasn't the best in his div.

    Threads drifted off from"Legacy" a touch.

    Did you leave 10 blank so we can fill in our own choice?

    This thread is dedicated to De La hoya, these were the greats who floated around the same divisions in the same era as Oscar but did not receive anywhere near the star power as him, although they were just as good if not better, he fought everybody on this list except Tszyu.


    He maid Tito a cash cow post their fight, along with Mayweather and Pac.

    There was no great to put at 10, but here are some options

    Quartey
    Vargas
    Forrest
    Joppy
    Page
    Judah lol
    Meldric Taylor

    Default Re: Rank these fighters

    1: Chavez: Greatest Mexican we have seen in this sport.

    2: Whitaker: Brilliant but uninspiring in his time, but now get his kudos.

    3: Mayweather Jr: An exceptional talent.

    4: Hopkins: Now arguably the best 'old' fighter ever.

    5: De La Hoya: Had a lot to live up too, and succeed.

    6: Pacquiao: I did not think any Filipino would top Villa, I was wrong!

    7: Mosley: An awesome phenomenon, who also had substance.

    8: Trinidad: A fighter who has gone out of fashion, which was a shame as he was fun and talented.

    9: Tszyu: Along with Arbachakov, was the first to show that the old 'Soviet' amateur system could in the new era produce brilliance at pro level.

    I will go with most of what you said here :-)

    Chavez - I have to go with Sanchez over Chavez... but he is among the top Mexican fighters we have ever seen.

    Whitaker, I didn't think was uninspiring at the time, but he was a classic boxer in the 'boxer versus puncher' sense of the term.

    There was a bit of questioning earlier about why everyone put Tszyu on the bottom of the list... I guess I'm curious your reasoning. For me, it was longevity for the most part - he was seen as darned near unbeatable and that made it even more incredible the manner in which he lost to Hatton.

    Anyway, good post.

    But he was not considered unbeatable...

    Go back through the history of this forum, and he was panned. And not to toot the horn of the non Australian person who fought his corner, notable when it was said Mitchell was going to beat him; toot, toot; Tszyu does not quite live with the rest listed here.

    I recall him being considered a darned good fighter... perhaps unbeatable is a stretch, but he was the real guy for a while and I don't remember anyone being considered a serious threat after Zab. In the US, I don't remember people really taking Hatton that seriously before he won the Kostya fight... and most of the talk was about what Kostya was rather than what Hatton wasn't when I talked to people during the build to that fight.

    I obviously agree with you on him not really being in the class of these guys, as I listed him last as well :-) Just curious what your thoughts were.
