    There's no such thing as a "stay busy" fight for Oscar, he isnt after any titles or any type of legacy, he is just making money off of his name for as long as his body lets him.

    He shouldnt even be ranked imo. He has fought 4 times in the last 5 years how the heck is this guy ranked
    Dam dam good posting. You'r back on the winning trail my man. especially after the big mistakes you were making, asking whether Cotto would fight Tony etc Good poting though,well said and total common sense. Oscar is ranked because he's Oscar. Anyone else wouldn't be but there is no other fighter out there with such blind followers.

    He shouldnt be in any p4p-list, but to say he shouldnt be ranked at all (at 154) is a bit silly. Afaik most rankings has a clause that says that a fighter needs to have been active within the last 12 months.

    It hasnt been 12 months since Oscar's last fight. And it wasn't 12 months before that either. And since he should be ranked based on beating Ricardo Mayorga for a title - no matter what you think of Mayorga, he was surely top 10 - he should still be there. After all he was losing to the p4p no. 1 guy, so it cannot hurt his ranking that much.

    Also, Winky is still ranked at despite having only fought once in 1½ year - and he too lost that one. And Winky is even ranked at Middleweight where he has _no_ fights in And to take another light middleweight: Daniel Santos. Not too many fights on his recent resume either.
