Whether you like Oscar or not, he deserves everyone's respect for his quality of opposition. He could've used his popularity two ways, he could've used it to avoid all the tough guys (because he could still make big $$$ even against bad opponents) or he could've used it to lure all the biggest and best names to fight him. He chose the latter.

I've never been an Oscar fan, the running in the Tito fight was horrible, and I think he got some gift decisions (especially early in his career), but I'll always respect him.
Word for word,echoes my opinion on Oscar. CC in 24,excellent post.

VD,why was SRL over rated?Just asking.I thought he beat Hagler. I didn't see running.If that was running then so were many other great boxers out there. I aw a man come of a long ass lay off and fight a dominant worl cha,pion and beat him for his title. 12 rounds or not,Halger old or not,for SRL to come back from a long ass layoff and box that way was amazing imo.
