    Nobody else's ducking has nothing to do with the level of avoiding fights that Floyd operated on.

    Timing could never be better or worse depending on what side of the fence you sitting on.

    Every time a new crop of threats comes up, Floyd is either on vacation, retired, hands is hurtin', locked up, being held hostage in another country. The excuses are endless

      Same for Jones and I hope you not trying to be serious about Hatton having the same level of greatness as Bhop, or for Jones having a prime bonafide all time great win on his resume with Bhop you gonna look crazy.

        Yes, please don't. 16 years on I think most of us can agree that everyone involved in that situation handled it appallingly and the fans lost out in an irrevocable way. I never fully regained my love for the sport after that.

          This isn't a prime Tszyu we talking about another guy Floyd arguably ducked but ok.

          Then what happened.

          He moved up to ww, arguably lost to Collazo a shopworn b fighter, but because people wanted to see him against Floyd and he had a large UK following they still went ahead with making a fight.

          No way Floyd is ducking this guy.

          He got exposed as a one dimensional, flat footed, short armed brawler right up Floyds alley, needless to say he is Floyd's best highlight when he was checkhooked headfirst into a turnbuckle, then thought he could bulldoze Manny at 140 but got poleaxed into retirement in 2 rds, and get this, with Floyd Sr in his corner. Overrated is an understatement to say the least.

          He like the British Marcos Madonna. Got that retirement check and faded into oblivion. Into nonexistence.

          Word on the street is he trying to make a comeback too that retirement $ must have run out

            So why you bring it up.

            Lol. Floyd is his own boss until it's time to be accountable for making fights happen. Then it's everybody else's fault

              Hatton had what amounted to be a moment. Let that sink in. A moment. A moment that quickly evaporated once he hit the big stage.

              Bernard Hopkins, forgot more about boxing, than Ricky Hatton, will ever know.

              I can't believe somebody is really trying to compare Hatton to Hopkins

                Lol. Hatton arguably lost.

                They gave Hatton Collazos strap to set up a Floyd fight.

                After he got the gift decision, every bar and barbershop knew Floyd would get rid of Hatton guaranteed.

                    You gotta understand the relationship between the troll and the troll feeder. They both need each other and they both entertain each other. Without one the other will not exist. Their existence is based on their never ending circle.

                    I made this trend to ask a honest question. Then I realized this trend breeds trolls. Then I found my self as a troll feeder. I accepted the job because it actually entertains me when I am bored.

                    Hopefully this information is saved for the non trolls for the future.

                      Who was the more accomplished fighter when they fought? Was it bhop who was 20 fights in with a lose and a minor belt when he fought Roy or the undefeated former lineal champion hatton when he fought Floyd ?

                      4. Roy Jones
