      Nice list. I think it's weird that you have Oscar ahead of Tito, Sugar Shane and Floyd, though. Other than that, it looks pretty solid.

        Well, in my view Oscar beat a prime Trinidad and got hosed on the cards. I also had him winning one of the Mosley fights and fighting Mayweather pretty damn close despite being over the hill. It's a judgement call I suppose but that's usually the case when dealing with fighters that are pretty close in talent.

          I liked Oscar until the Trinidad fight. When he coasted and gave away the last few rounds I wrote him off.

              I think definitely Tito belongs in the top 10, holds record for title deffenses, took a lot of 0's while doing it.
