Oscar De La Hoya comes to mind.

Dude always seemed to lose big fights.

True, but the NFL was the first pro sports league to embrace style over substance.

But no one considers him among the best that lived. Dude fought everybody that was worth fighting in his career. For the Pernell Whitakers of the world where Oscar won and maybe shouldn't have, there's that Mayweather fight where many believe Oscar may have bested him. Dude was legit and fought anyone in the way. If Ali is the greatest with his losses Oscar at least deserves a little leeway with his considering the opponents.
