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.
"Very few people really understand what it means to be a fighter. I hate it when I hear someone say, 'That fighter doesn't have guts. I hate that, I don't care if you're a world champion six times over or a four-round fighter, to step inside that ring, you have to have guts" Oscar De La Hoya
