what are u smoking??? hatton was the only champ worth taking note of at 140 2005-2009
Yes your right, hatton was a legit champ during that time,,,
all i was saying was that in another era like the early 80s he would not have been,,
I dont see hatton beating pryor, arguello, camacho, chavez, meldrick taylor, roger mayweather, oscar, pernell, etc.......
the level of competition is way down from previous eras
Real answer im not sure. I wanna say judah but not 100% sure.
But like i said on NSB floyd can fight champions but they arent really champions
GTFO!!! I tell you this, if Floyd didnt fight Ortiz, Ghost, Mosley when he fought them, I would be the FIRST to call him a ducker. He doesnt cherrypick random bums from Mexico. He just fights whoever's there. Yea he DID Duck Pac, but if he fought Pac, and didnt fight not ONE of the other ww's he fought, he would be a ducker, plain and simple. Each guy he fought had different styles, and he was forced to change his style in order to dominate each. Its legendary that he is able to do that! And Canelo was a bonus fight. He wasnt obligated to fight anyone at jr md because he cant even make the weight. Cotto was the only bum he fought since he returned.
Everybody has had a belt in boxing nowadays..
there is 4 sanctioning bodies plus ring title,
4 Superchamps
4 regular champs
dozens of interm champs...
back in the 70s and 80s guys like:
ghost
ortiz
berto
canelo
hatton
gatti
None would be champs
Donald curry or SRL or hearns vs ghost, ortiz,
Canelo vs mccllelan or hearns
gatti vs arguello, pryor, hell even mancini
Not trying to take away from floyd,, but being a "champ" today is greatly overrrated, in all honestly, it doesnt mean crap...

Might be kinda irrelevant, but I believe the WBA are starting to phase out this "Super champion" stuff. I agree though, so many belts its ridiculous. 2 champions per division is fine, as unification fights can be very exciting. Anything over that though, is terrible

September 9, 2010: Josie Harris.
Her record was 2-0 up to that point, but no belts (unless you count Gucci and Prada). She was 2-0 because she had 2 kids with Floyd and effectively hit the lottery. Floyd gave her the Ortiz treatment.
she was 3-0.
The last 28 fights have been champions or ex-champs. Castillo twice so the last 27 fighters . After and including Genaro Hernandez (rip).
That 2 piece from Garcia by your sig is just SICK!!!
I stared at it for a legit 5 minutes, damnnnn.
Thanks homie! :boxing:
Honest question....
When was the last time Mayweather fought anyone that didn't have at least an interim belt?

Who isn't a Champion today? Theres so many weight classes and federations the top five in ever class is a Champ! Having a Title isn't quite like earning it anymore, theres been champs lately that should have never moved out of 8 round fights!

It's only loaded if you don't want to hear the facts. I'm not one to go by Boxrec so I'm asking the posters here who are honest and I trust very much. :slap:
