VIVA MEXICO,STEELHAMMER86, its guys like you who get the arguments started. for both of you guys to say floyd is a coward and a ducker please educate yourselves about the sport and become fans. if you really want to get technical about it, compare resumes and see of many fighters floy6 has fought that had fewer than 6 loses to rickys.Comment

What the **** are you talking about? N'dou didn't fight in no June, I'm talking about Philip N'dou, who at the time had 31 wins and 30 KOs, not the one you're thinking of. People will dig so far up their ass to find something to discredit, lol... You obviously don't follow boxing.
That is your opinion, but he still won both fights.Castillo: won the first fight with PBF, bad judges
His "prime" would have made no difference and if he's a great boxer, what does it matter? He's no where near done, he was the legit champ at 154.De La Hoya: great boxer but past his prime
And Mayweather beat him like no one else..Gatti: entertaining, but shot after his battles with Ward and a limited fighter
Judah has always been one of the most skilled fighters in the world and gave both cotto and floyd a run for their money early in the fight. Besides, he got beat by Baldo and Floyd immediately schooled Baldo too.Judah: limited fighter, KOed by Tszyu, had been beaten by Baldomir just before
And I see you haven't mentioned Corrales, Hernandez, and others..
^Again, you skip a couple of very important fighters on purpose in Hernandez and Corrales, and this is coming from a guy who doesn't know the different between Philip and Lovemore N'dou. Stick to MMA!No, Mayweather has fought hand-picked opponents - either limited or past prime fighters. He's always chosen the easiest titleholders to beat, and he's had judges help him out several times.

If you don't think Oscar was not in his prime then YOU my friend need to follow boxing, and if you don't think that matters you don't know squat, the rest i agree with though.What the **** are you talking about?

I dont hate hatton i just think he's another opponent for Mayweather...and i think hatton is overrated....i dont mind his style i think u have to do what u have to do to pull out a victory....the main reason i think hatton is overrated is because of his competition....almost all his fights have been in his backyard not on a world level where diffrent cultures can send their best warriors to fight...now im sure some competition is good in britan but after 40 some odd fights by hatton im sure he's fought less than stellar competition... they all cant be great fighters when u fight only in britan and not on a world level...now i wont deny that hatton is a warrior but against floyd it will be another level..... and hatton isnt a brilliant fighter like duran who would slip punches as he pushed forward...hatton is flat footed and will get picked off coming in... hatton is not a one punch knockout artist...either is floyd most both fighters gain their knockouts by attrition and hatton if floyd decides to stick and move wont be able to gain that knockout by attrition... its also unfavorable for hatton if mayweather stands in with him... floyd may stck and move alot...but make no mistake that he is a great fighter on the inside too even though he dosent use that tactic all too often... but if he decides to stand in he might knockout hatton by attrition because his punches are crisper and sharper and because he's way more elusive than hatton....Hatton cannot just come forward many fighters have tried that and lost to floyd he's seen too many styles to be fooled by a flat footed hatton coming forward...and if hatton decides to box itll be a jab to the face jab to the body with some hooks every now and than all night till hatton just loses on points..... in conclusion nothing hatton brings is revolutionary and i think it will be easily solved by floyd........Comment

His style has changed alittle bit. He hugs alot more. And the hype he had coming from the UK isnt what it is in the US. And because the Americans really just dont like him. I guess cause he's from the UK. But we loved Lennox.Comment

I merely agreed with that guy that Oscar DLH today is not in his prime (but he's still a great boxer), sorry if you misunderstood me. I was also saying that if he were, like 5 years ago or something to Floyd's five years ago at the same weight, it would have made no difference in the outcome of the decision...Comment
