I think it's more due to shane starting too small, sweet-pea being old, that his reign should be credited...because had a real slick boxer been there he would have already lost...as you saw when he fought shane...and the old sweet pea gave him fits...but he will beat Mayorga, but i wouldn't be suprised if he got ko'ed by a head shot because it just might be that time for him...
From 1997 to 2000 who would you have him fight from Lightweight to Welterweight that was better than Chavez, Gonzalez, Whitaker, Quartley, Mosley and Trinadad? The only name that comes to mind is Tszyu but he lost to Vince.. As far as I'm concerned with Mosely and Trinidad the right decision was made but it could have gone either way. In the rematch I believe Oscar out boxed Mosely and did enough to win. Dela Hoya deserves his props.

To put it in perspective just name another Lightweight that would of hung with Hopkins as well as Dela Hoya. It was no beat down.. it was 1 shot that stopped the fight.
