Why is oscar liked so much?

[shza]

Oscar fights with heart, he's a nice person, and above all he carries himself with class.....Him, Shane, and Tito will be looked back on much like Ali, Frazier, and Foreman

i supposed so..but one thing that all those fighter have in common that oscar doesn't is that they at one point or another beat prime A+ fighters...don't get me wrong, but i don't know oscar personally so i could care less how he carries himself i'm only interested in what he does in the ring, and when he loses he he doesn't handle it with "class"

What do you mean he hasnt beat any class A fighters? Chavez was old but still was whipping everyones a** when they fought. Quartay whats he? Trinadad he didnt get the W but it was close even went up with Hopkens lost but so did Tito no shame there and Oscar didnt take a dive either! Parnel Whitcker! Ruelas! Hernandez! All were champions! Won the Gold at the Olympics! What are you talking about! ! !

Chavez and Whittaker were not prime when Oscar "beat" them -- and the "win" over Whittaker was controversial anyway. Ruelas and Hernandez are not "A+ fighters" (neither is Vargas). He did not deserve the W over Quartey (who's not an A+ fighter anyway). The only thing approaching a "prime A+ fighter" Oscar ever beat was Trinidad (I agree he won that fight) -- though given the way Tito was exposed every time he faced someone with boxing skills, it's not altogether clear he should be classified as "A+". Oscar's KO LOSS to Hopkins obviously doesn't inure to his benefit. Add to that loss the other losses he's had every other time he's gone up against a legit A+ fighter (Mosley twice and PBF), as well as what everyone agrees should have been a loss against the B grade Felix Sturm, and you have a very good, but not ATG fighter (certainly not on the level of Ali, Frazier or Foreman).
