      i dont care if im the first one to say this but floyd and hopkins, and winky suck big time. **** i rather see a good technical boxer " marquez,mosley,cotto" or even brawlers man like mayorga, pantera or arce put on a good show. i wouldnt even pay 10 dollars to see the the running man or the mummy. watch some expert is gonna say nah man its about the skills and defence, yes it is but is also boring as ****.

          It would be better off without Floyd. And it's obvious. Floyd hasnt done anything for boxing. He's great at what he does, but what he does doesnt get people excited. I know that when non-boxing fans that I know watched him fight Oscar all they could say was "God he just runs...I dont know how anyone can be excited for this stuff."

                  No, only you and his nuthuggers.

                  That would be such a good riddance.

                      Just think, if Floyd beats Hatton, and the winner of Cotto-Mosley, and a few other champions. Then he could be considered the #1 P4P of all time. But that's as long as he keeps whoopin the top fighters. Only time will tell.
                      Well, he sure "whooped" a "top fighter" in De la Hoya.
