Fighters who were never the same after losing once

[TitoFan]

I think that's BS he fought with all the heart in the world against Oscar, its just Oscar was too good of a boxer for him.

Sorry. He may have "fought his heart out" against Oscar, but he wasn't the same fighter AFTER Tito. You may recall... he was floored quite easily and put on queer street by the lightly regarded Wilfredo Rivera (also from PR) in a fight shortly after the Tito fight. Had Wilfredo taken advantage of that knockdown, he'd have given Fernando his 2nd KO loss. So it was Tito who ruined Fernando, not Oscar.

Lightly regarded? You ain't seen much of Rivera have you? Rivera was a very good fighter. If there was any justice in the world he would of got that win against Pernell Whitaker. He deserved it.

Gotta admit... I never saw much of Rivera. I know he came up short in his bigger fights (DLH, Mosley, Vargas). I never did see either of his fights against Whitaker. His career being pretty much parallel to Trinidad's, he was often overlooked here in PR.
