    Well, he's better than Cotto. But otherwise, he's on par with Holyfield who was also up and down.

    Oscar was pretty dominant early on. His first struggle/questionable decision was Sweet Pea. The Quartey fight was close, but everyone expected it to be tough. I thought he deserved the Tito win. Those were HUGE fights. If you look at Oscars quality of opposition, he fought the best. Evander may be the only guy of that time who fought as good of opposition, and he had some losses as well. I'm good with putting Oscar in the top 25 (of his generation), easily.

    I haven't seen Oscar's fight with Tito or the second Mosley fight in donkey's years but thought he won both of them.

    I think you can make a case for him being ranked too low. He fought/beat SEVEN of the top 15 on this list. In fact, you could make an argument that he should be ranked above Roy on quality of opposition alone.
