    I guess I could go for some HWs...


    Briggs, Brewster, Peter..... OVERhyped

    On the other hand, guys like Maskaev and Valuev are underated.

    I really don't mean for it to be racial (in case someone noticed) but No one expects Maskaev to win his next fight.. same goes for Valuev... people are saying that it's just a matter of time.

It was a hit and hold fight that he coulda lost had it not been Tszyu retired on the stool. BTW-Anyone got the judges score cards up to that point? Curious if it was completely 1 sided or not.

      all scores were for hatton, i had him ahead by one round.

          I have always liked the guy and always thought he was yeah probably the best fighter, but now it's getting pretty pathetic.

          I remember reading someone talking about how they think he could give Jermaine Taylor a run for his money and maybe capture the Middleweight title. Most ******ed thing in the history of statements.
          awww is the Margarito fan jealous? poor little idiot

            Not jus to bump my own **** - but part of the reason I started this one was to see what the folks thought.

            Clearly, it's Margarito by a landslide.

            Too bad we have nothing to give him. He did win this convincingly..

              Fraud Gayleather. Anyone who can fight THAT level of competition for the last four years and still be considered legible for P4P No.1 is seriously hyped.

              All these Amigos and little Pac are fighting the best out there, but Fraud gets a meal ticket for the likes of Gatti?

Not to say that he doesn't have all the potential in the world and he won't be great but at this point in his career he hasn't foguth anyone for him to be hyped the way he is. I think a lot of people have jumped on the band wagon and hyped him before he has really proven himself.
                  My choice exactly!He is also one of the most protected fighters in the game today.Although I agree,he may turn out to be a really good fighter.Time will tell.

                    Too bad we have nothing to give him. He did win this convincingly..

                    I'm not sure if the poll results are accurate.
                    And I don't have a bias view in either direction, so I will lay it as I see it...

                    I could guarantee that EVERY SINGLE PBF fan on this forum voted for Margarito as the "Hype"

                    Why? Because this is what Floyed haters have been preaching for years that PBF is ducking him.

                    And based on his last performance, in PBS' defense, they have to show that Margarito is nothing but Hype... this would explain the large volume of votes.


                    This is just my own opinion and I could be wrong of course.

                      "Brit"?

                      It's weird how Yankees get to slate Floyd without having their nationality thrown in their face, huh?


                      Deigo****o - a silly little boy who's trolling this thread to look for arguments. Little prick boy.


                      Let's remind ourselves of ****o's wisdom:

                      "Floyd is better than Sugar Ray Robinson as SRR never UD'd Carlos Baldomir".

                      "Anyone who thought Lacy wasn't a world beater after seeing a shot to **** Scott Pemberton take a dive against him must be a homer who doesn't know boxing."



                      What a wise little boy you are.
