Is Oscar Worthy of His Statue?

[C-Lo]

Who has done more for the sport of boxing in the last 20 years? Who has consistently taken on the biggest challenges, and made the biggest matchups in the sport? He deserves everything he gets IMO.

You're absolutely right TAETH. But people's opinions of him will not be what he's done, but what he's been doing lately. And the past couple of years have not been Oscar's best work.

I was a huge Oscar fan. I respected him so much. But his recent actions have totally changed me. And I'm sure I'm not the only one.

I'm not even an Oscar fan, but I must admit that he's done a lot for Los Angeles and especially for the Latino community there. I'm fine with it, he deserves it.

WHy complain. It is great when our sport gets any mainstream recognition.


That being said, I am so rooting for Pac-man come saturday. I am sick of Oscar.

Of course, I think history will remember Oscar for his accomplishments in his prime and finding sucess and holding titles at different weight classes throughout his career, as they should. Like him or not, he has done a lot for boxing.
