Wonder what your excuse for disregarding it this time was going to be?
    I prefer getting paid while I make the threads and polls, but that's just me. Funny how you discredit the poll when it's not in your favor...

      Dont dispute them. Just dont particularly buy them whatsoever. They are almost always slanted and are invariably open to foul-play. Thats why I never make any myself and the only person I ever really hold them to any kind of credible result with is $in, cos he seems to use them to his own purpose whenver and however he can.

      Now, only the more serious point of how great boxing would be if it WERE more like Mortal Kombat.

        i agree. when you've fought hopkins 2x's, winky, ouma, ike and about to take on spinks ... geez ... taylor doesn't get the credit he deserves.

        thats a nasty looking resume.

          VERY funny of you to accuse someone else of doing that.

          I dont dispute the 'result' of this poll at all. Like I just said, I dont pay 'much' heed to any polls around here. Some are more interesting than others, but none mean all that much and all of them that arent publically viewable smack of being a bit iffy.

            To add to Technical Skills & others list that might have been left off that I can think of off-hand:

            Corey Spinks
            Genaro Hernandez
            Stevie "Little But Bad" Johnston
            Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson
            Terry Norris

                I asked sin whether he thinks Hatton is the best 30 of the last decade and i dont think hes answered yet if im right. It was a straight forward question and im not trying to catch you out like u hav with the dlh v PBF poll. Everyone makes wrong predictions from time to time. That is life.

                  He's not in my top 30. Not even close.

                  He has fought 42 times. In those 42 times, he has only fought 3 guys in ranked in the top 10 by the RING (Tsyzu, Maussa, and Collazo). That is just not impressive to me...

                    C,mon sin. Some people would bet money on Floyd to lose to Hatton. Just pretend you think Hatton is higher. It wont hurt. So where is PBF on your list? Just a bit higher than Hatton than i suppose and breaking into the top 30. I myself think PBF is higher than 30 by quite a way, so you are underestimating PBF, which suprises me.
                    I favour PBF against Hatton slightly but it would b a tough fight i am sure of that. Noone has had an easy fight against Hatton so i would be insane to say it would be any different. Because PBF at the end of the day is human.

                      Let's see your 30+ then. No desperation picks like the other lists on the thread either.
